Gold Miner

⛏️ Gold Miner

Gold Miner is a retro timing game where you swing a grabber, release it at the perfect moment, and haul up gold and hidden treasures. Each level has a target to reach, so smart picks matter as much as quick reflexes.

Rules and gameplay

  • Wait for the grabber to line up with a valuable target.
  • Click or tap to release the grabber and pull the item back up.
  • Collect enough value to reach the level goal and advance.
  • Some items are slow to pull, so choosing what to grab is part of the challenge.

How to play

  • Scan the field and pick your best angle.
  • Release the grabber when it will latch onto the item you want.
  • Repeat until you hit the goal for the level.

Tips and tricks

  • Prioritize high-value items when the field is crowded.
  • If two targets are close, aim for the one that gives a cleaner line and faster pull.
  • When you’re behind the goal, stop “small grabbing” and commit to bigger prizes.
  • Use early grabs to open space and improve angles for the best items.

Game controls

  • Mouse / Tap: Click or tap to release the grabber.

Features

  • Classic claw timing gameplay with a retro feel
