Mining Simulator
A bare-bones idle miner that trades depth for simplicity, perfect if you want spreadsheet progression without the Paradox learning curve.
GamerScout Verdict
Only grab it if you need idle-game busywork with zero expectations for depth or longevity.
Compare Prices(8 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Mining Simulator
I'll be honest: Mining Simulator is exactly what the title promises and nothing more. You pick, you upgrade, you rebirth. The loop is straightforward, descend into multiple areas, accumulate resources, feed them into a pickaxe upgrade tree, and reset your progress for multipliers. That's it. No story, no branching tech paths, no AI opponents to outmaneuver. The UI is functional but rough, and the Steam description reads like it was written by someone who'd never seen an actual game manual. If you're looking for idle-game mechanics without overthinking, this scratches that itch for about 4-6 hours before the novelty flattens. It's early access, which explains the rough edges, but there's no roadmap visible that suggests meaningful systems are coming. Treat this as a phone game you sideload onto Steam, perfectly fine for mindless progression, worthless if you want any kind of strategic decision-making or build variety.
