This game is really interesting and gets pretty fun when you put a lot of time into it. I wish there was a way to upgrade how many beers and pickaxes you could hold, but for what it is, this game is really nice all around!\r\rThe graphics are nice, and while there's no music, the gameplay, though a bit monotonous after a while, is fun and challenging enough to keep from getting annoying. Sometimes the mole gets stuck on the rocks a little bit and slows down a lot, which is kind of frustrating, but it's not a game killer.\r\rA way to improve it could be to put in more enemy types (bats? trolls?) and ore types (silver? diamonds?) and maybe even some special dwarf types (fighters? efficient golems that help with mining but disappear after a while?). I feel like it could easily be expanded and put into mobile format to make some money since it's all click-driven. You could even do non-evil IAPs for upgrading your capacity if you really wanted to... :)"},{"author_name":"liamtwose","author_uid":"35533","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 8:49am","epoch":1398674640,"text":"Great setting, love the graphics.

I found it pretty hectic. I didn't think about hiring more dwarfs, the ones I had were hard enough to manage!\r\rThe opening picture I love. \r\rIf I could ask for one thing is some visual clues what was happening. It took me a while to realise that a sound meant that I had picked up a beer or a pickaxe. I also didn't find it very clear if I broght the stuff to the right dwarf. If you would be able to see the stuff the mole was carrying and when it was deliverd it would help."},{"author_name":"eskivor","author_uid":"25329","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 2:09pm","epoch":1398693840,"text":"Good game with potential.
