"What's that ringing in my ears? I thought church was out for the day." "It's just the nuclear bombs going off in the town, dear, don't mind them."

I haven't purchased a single wheel upgrade. I suppose i could get the badges faster, but drifting everywhere is too much fun.

Del, if this is your first attempt at playing the game, just use your arrow keys to move the truck (or you can use your mouse by clicking where you wish to go). If you have already been playing the game and know how to move the truck and suddenly this time the truck doesn't move, rather as though it were frozen, well that has happened to me a couple times. You have two choices which I noticed. The first is to click End Day and not collect anything. The second is to back out of the game and re-enter. If you have much invested in the demolition, you might want to choose the second option. I believe that if you back out, that the day (demolition) hasn't happened; the game only auto saves after the end of a day.

I discovered that the houses don't really represent population after I set off 15 nuclear bombs on the thickest concetrations I could find and the population still increased like normal.......

All I can say about the holy grail is that it does exist.
I found it on my 158th day. There are holes almost everywhere and i blew out lots and lots of houses and buildings, but i finally found it.
The villagers of my town who are still alive are surely happy for me.

I kind of wish there were an upgrade to 'concentrate the blast' or something, that could make it so that the gold didn't fly off as far. Kind of annoying when most pieces stay near the hole but a couple go flying off into the next plot over.

Fun base gameplay but gets kinda boring once you've unlocked everything. Kinda no motivation to keep playing after that.

Interesting Game. 1. Need to be able to see area each building covers by hover or click after placement. 2. Stop placing Gold Mine signs under buildings. 3. Show all depleted spots. 4. "Try to put different buildings close together for best effect" is misleading. They need to be spaced out for population to occur.

Nice country over here :) But I actually wonder, how can half-ton brick fly over several miles and not kill anyone? :D

Here's an easy way to get quick money. Build an undertaker near a bunch of camps. Plant bombs underneath a bunch of the camps. The bombs ill kill people, which will have the undertaker make profit. +1 so everybody can see this

Now, where's the gold deposit on this plot I just shelled out $2000 for?
Oh, there it is -- right in the middle of a grove of trees. How convenient that the surveyor's office didn't mention that as I was forking over all my money.

Surveyor: There is a big gold deposit here
Miner: But there is a family living there I can't get to it
Surveyor: But dude there is a BIG gold deposit there
Shop keeper: Dude he said a BIG gold deposit here take these mini nukes
Miner: Ummm Ok *blows up house* OH HEY LOOK A LOT OF GOLD!!!!
Family: A**Hole

I might be stupid or am reading the instructions wrong, but I cannot, for the life of me move my truck. Ive tried using the WASD, arrow keys and the mouse to try moving the truck but nothing happens.

Could use a lot of tweaking - possibly most importantly, why is the town part of the mining screen at all, let alone something you can incidentally blow up if there's gold under it? I'm glad it's not a physical obstacle but it's not the greatest idea.

If you want to avoid having to restart because you ran out of money, make sure your town is generating income early on in the game. It doesn't have to be much- the smallest explosives aren't terribly expensive and you can always skip two or three days. Simply placing a tavern is enough to get some income.

Someone out there was probably really disappointed when they moved into my town with the promise of daily golden showers, and only saw actual raining gold

@warlordfox: The arrow doesn't say whether it's a good deal or a bad deal, just whether it's up or down from the previous day.

I don't want to be the stupid, rude troll comment. But I mean... how is this fun? I just don't understand how this is supposed to be entertaining... and for me, that's saying a lot. Getting this easy badge was just a lot of boredom, and waiting through this overly drawn out game

Great game, overall, but there are a few disappointments, namely:
1. By the time I decided to get a second plot(because I could, not due to lack of space to mine or anything), I already maxed all but one upgrade, it would have been nice to unlock more upgrades (I don't know, increased bomb AOE? increase base size further?), something to make it feel worthwhile.
2. Trees! The first half of my first plot was thankfully bare because I can't count how much money I lost to them just clearing the second half.
3. The edge, most of the time gold would bounce back from the edge but on occasion they wouldn't.
And finally, 4. A good dozen times, the gold locator map (or whatever it's called), pointed me to only "ok" areas, making me waste my good bombs, while my randomly placed poor bombs would be turning up "excellent" all over the place.
Ultimately, none of this is enough that the game could be called bad, but it really drags it down from great.
