March 2025
This is a great game from 2017. It has a bit of a learning curve but pretty easy once you get going. It's in need of a 2025 upgrade and multi-player but that's what we are getting with Gold Mining simulator 2. This is always on sale and the DLCs are worth it. This game will require a grind so if you expect to have millions of dollars after one cleanout, you might want to go play something else. It's pretty much everything you could ask for in a gold mining simulator, minus some extra help from your friends!

Honestly, I love the game, even if I rarely play it, but it's got a major issue in my eyes, it's strictly singleplayer, this game would be made easily my top game if this were an experience I could enjoy with a couple of buddies, share goals, and have everyone running specific equipment to keep the mine running, it'd just be a 100% more enjoyable experience if it were multiplayer of up to like, 4 or 5 guys

340 hours in and i have to say what this game really needs in GMS2 is multiplayer and a group finder function for random groups. Also it needs overburden to be stripped. maybe different claims with different amounts of overburden, so there is an expense to mining the claim with heavy equipment, and a reason to have a bulldozer in the game. the overburden could also have some being more muddy, so a vehicle can get stuck, and some that needs to be ripped etc. also if were going to add multiplayer, it should still be as satisfying solo with AI workers ingame that can be set to run specific tasks.... ( like the farming simulator mod that lets you program tasks or routes for AI to work fields etc)
