Mine Information[]

The Mine can be restored with 3,000 coins at level 21. It takes 1 day and 6 hours to build. You will receive 128xp after completion.

You can move the Mine once it's been restored. In the Mine you will see dirt, stone and rocks together with picks, dynamite and TNT which you have received from your trains, zoo decks, or cash purchases.

Every artifact excavated in the mine brings you closer to completing a collection at the museum. You can only find three of each artifact and when you have one of each artifact you'll be rewarded with T-cash.

  • 1 of each artifact in the collection = 4 or 5 T-cash
  • 2 of each artifact in the collection = 7 T-cash
  • 3 of each artifact in the collection = 10 T-cash (Complete Collection)

Warehouse[]

Inside the mine you will see a blue box called "Warehouse". Your ore will be stored in the warehouse where you can see how much of each type you have. You can sell your ore as well, but that's not a good idea. Your warehouse has unlimited storage. Once smelted into an ingot, however, the ingot is stored in the barn.

Ore is taken from the warehouse when smelting ingots in the Foundry. You need five ores to make an ingot.

Mining Strategy[]

Mine Tips and Tricks Playrix

The ideal way would be to remove all tiles on your way down, so you don't miss any hidden treasures. However, tools are limited so you have to use tools effectively while mining. Also there are hidden holes which often hide mine goods. Another thing to note is anything that reaches the top of the mining screen that you've extracted will automatically be collected, so you don't have to worry about losing them. The Message in a Bottles do not automatically collect, you must select these to collect the reward.

Note: There's a new booster for the mine called 'See the Light' which makes ore and artifacts from the darkened areas in the mine visible. Save a lot of mining tools, so you can make the most of the booster.

Mining Efficiently[]

Tips for using Picks Pick Preview
Picks remove 1 tile at a time.
  • Use picks to dig deeper into the mine or remove tiles with mine goods.
  • It takes 2 hits to remove stone, so it's better to use TNT in some cases.
  • Save at least 50-100 picks for Regatta mining tasks.
Example Pick
Tips for using Dynamite
Dynamite removes 1 row of tiles at a time.
  • It's best used in the middle where there's a row above and below it with hidden tiles.
  • If there's 1 stone block you can use 1 pickaxe then dynamite to clear the row (See example below).
  • Save at least 20-50 dynamite for Regatta mining tasks.
Example Dynamite
Tips for using TNT Example using TNT
TNT removes a square of 3x3 tiles (8 tiles around it).
  • TNT works best when there are many stone bricks or mine goods surrounding the area. (See example on right).
  • Usually areas with lots of stone contain mine goods, though in some cases you can remove dirt and avoid the area.
  • Save at least 20-50 TNT for Regatta mining tasks.
Example TNT

Hiring Dealer for Ores[]

A great way to get ores is from hiring the dealer while he's on sale (72 Tcash for 10 Days).

  • You can buy 13 bronze/silver ores or 9 gold/platinum ores every hour from the dealer.
  • Search back and forth between 2 types of ore until you get either 9 or 13 of the ore you need.
  • Using the dealer you might not even have to mine at all, unless you want artifacts or demand is of Mining Task in Regatta.

Treasure Rooms[]

Hidden Treasure Room[]

Treasure Room
  • Treasure Rooms are found in every 50 to 100 metres of depth, containing coins, treasure and cash chests.
  • They have unique backgrounds and are surrounded in rock (Example below).
  • Entrances are typically blocked by stone tiles, and in some cases a side can be blocked with rock.

Revealed Treasure Room[]

Treasure Room Revealed
  • After removing the tiles blocking the entrance the Treasure Room will light up and reveal its rewards.
  • Treasure rooms contain at least 1 cash or treasure chest (2 treasure chests max).
  • The coin piles give about 700-1,100+ coins each.

Obtaining Mining Tools[]

  • Some trains return with a box containing a bunch of mining tools.
  • Tools are found buried in the mine itself (in chests, bottles, and tiles).
  • Winning tools by playing games using clovers at the House of Luck.
