Gemporium: A Cute Mining Sim

7/10: fuuuun for short sessions, but it gets repetitive pretty fast. It’s one of those games you open just to have something to do. There’s not much to it besides digging, polishing gems, and selling them. Good enough when you just want to pass the time. Definitely grab this on sale.

Game does not save mid day if you quit, no warning nor any tutorial telling you that saving ONLY happens after you go to bed. I lost hours of gameplay because of it. All the artifacts I got and cleaned, all the gems for that day that ALSO took ages to clean.

PAUSING THE GAME DOESNT STOP THE TIMER

一点都不休闲，跟他妈坐牢一样，重复重复重复，交钱交钱交钱，恶心

I'm really enjoying this game! The whole idea is that you're thrown into a gem shop that you own and have to mine daily to pay off your debts. The mining part is fun and repetitive; you have to be sure that you don't smash the gems in the process and be very careful. As you play, you upgrade your tools and bag. You also gain skills like haggling and find other "artifacts" while mining. It's really repetitive, but an awesome game to fixate on if you like repetition!

Muy buen juego. Tiene un arte precioso y es perfecto para jugar de chill mientras desconectas un rato. La progresión se siente entretenida y siempre dan ganas de seguir minando para conseguir mejores gemas. Eso sí, prepárate para dejarte adolorida la mamo en el minar y pulir tan rapido XD Fuera de eso, lo pasé súper bien. 10/10, recomendadísimo. :3

优点是手绘画风，玩法其实挺枯燥的

Very cute game with very satisfying mechanics. The simple loop of digging, polishing, and selling is really fun. Excited for the update and DLC, and the other game!

i think its adorable, little guy helping his granny out <3. its nice that game doesnt punish you too hard if you make mistakes. definitely good choice for achievement hunters. but it has big minus and thats really low time of the day. i mean you really need to hurry if youre gonna make it.

if you play this game on default mode, then my friend prepare yourself for a stressful fast-paced clicking mania. thankfully, you can choose to play with the cozy setting too. i like the art and i think with some polished updates this game could go far. but right now it lacks replayability, after youve paid all your debt, there's nothing new to discover.
