der letzte dreck Bagger kommt nicht den kleinsten Berg hoch scheiß Fahrzeuge hat nix mit der Serie zu tun bugs ohne Ende der letzte Müll der zweite teil wird auch nicht besser ein spiel für Idioten habe es wieder Deinstaliert die Programierer sind doof wie ein sack tüten suppe Buldoozer ohne kraft können nix schieben Radlader ohne Kraft kommt kein kleinen Berg hoch die sollten ihren Beruf auf geben
Obwohl die Grafik eher lau ist, bei Fahren mit dem Pickup hat man andauernd kurzen Ladebildschirm, das nervt auf lange Zeit sehr. Das Tutorial das einem Stufe für Stufe weiter bringt, hat sich aufgehängt. Mit Maschinen, erwirtschafte ich nicht wirklich mehr Geld/Gold. Und man ist mehr Unterwegs um Dinge zu besorgen als am Gold schürfen. Naja, irgendwie Monoton das Ganze, aber vielleicht wird es ja später noch etwas spannender. Kaufen würde ich es nicht mehr....

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
Every market we collect.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Don't let this game's age fool you. Even though it's a little dated, it's still a really fun game to play and a great choice if you enjoy grindy, rewarding single-player mining games. The leaderboards add some extra competition and give you something to work toward. One downside is that there is no multiplayer, but personally that doesn't bother me at all. The game is still very enjoyable on your own and offers plenty of progression to keep you engaged. Overall, it's a surprisingly fun and immersive game for what it is. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. Rating: 9/10
This is one of those simulator games where you start playing “just to try it” and then somehow you’re emotionally invested in dirt. Not gold. Dirt. Moving dirt, washing dirt, checking dirt, buying bigger machines so you can disrespect even larger piles of dirt. And honestly, that’s the fun part. The game has a really satisfying progression from small, hands-on work to running a proper mining setup with equipment, upgrades, machines, fuel, repairs, and all the little problems that come with trying to make money out of the ground. It’s slow, but in a good simulator way — the kind where every upgrade feels earned because you actually worked for it. I also like how physical everything feels. Driving machinery, setting things up, moving equipment, processing material, watching the gold finally come in — it gives the whole thing a nice “I built this operation myself” feeling. It’s not a game for people who need constant explosions every 20 seconds, but if you enjoy practical, grindy, oddly relaxing sims, this one scratches that itch. There’s something very satisfying about turning mud, machinery, and bad financial decisions into profit. Would dig again.
Игра 2017 года, на железе 2023 проседает до 50-60 FPS. Скоро выйдет Gold Mining Simulator 2, а они первую часть не починили. При расстановке оборудования словил два краша подряд с интервалом 10 мин. Частые коллизии отталкивания приводящие к полету техники или ящика для переноски мелких айтемов.
You can cross the map without hitting multiple loading points where the game lags and the over all poor performance of the game leads to the feeling of motion sickness after about an hour.
Gold Mining Simulator reste un titre solide, porté par un concept simple mais efficace. Le gameplay est complet et propose une progression claire, ce qui en fait une expérience satisfaisante malgré son âge. Les limites techniques sont toutefois évidentes : les graphismes ont clairement mal vieilli et les temps de chargement fréquents, qui apparaissent presque tous les dix mètres en dehors des parcelles, rendent l’exploration pénible. Malgré ces défauts, j’attends beaucoup du deuxième opus. Les premières images dévoilées sont prometteuses et donnent envie de s’y replonger dès sa sortie. Un remerciement particulier à Dan Field, qui m’a fait découvrir ce jeu quand j’étais enfant. Qu’il repose en paix.
O jogo é bom... até certo ponto... O problema é que já a muito tempo ele é travado... e mesmo assim, nada de parar esses travamentos... Esqueceram de simplesmente tentar otimizar o jogo um pouco... A este ponto posso dizer que de certo modo ta abandonado...
Motion sickness and stutter central; for some reason they have the internal camera at 60hz; so movement will always trigger motion sickness.
