Description
Instructions: Use your mouse to play this game.
Gold Miner Tom is a timing game set deep underground. A claw swings above piles of gold, diamonds and other loot, and you choose the instant it drops. Whatever it hooks gets reeled up and turned into money. Hit the target sum for the level and you move on, fall short and the run ends. It belongs with our collecting games.
This is the old gold miner formula, one click per throw and every throw counts. Phones handle it well too.
Working the claw
Watch the claw swing and click when it points at something worth grabbing. Be quick about it, because you need enough cash to reach the goal of each level or the game is over. Temporary power ups are on offer, but they are paid for with the money you have earned, so each one lowers your total. Whatever you do, avoid the TNT barrels.
Ways to earn more per level
- Go for diamonds and large gold before cheaper finds, the level target is all about cash.
- Buy a power up only when it clearly brings back more than it costs.
- If a TNT barrel sits right next to a prize, choose a different target.
