If you dig games like this, you'll dig it too. Especially if your a fan of the show on TV, you get to do some of the things they do, and build a mining empire in Haines, AK. I can see a lot being done over the next few months to years with the devs adding and making the game better from now. Graphics are good with some lag time in loading from area to area. And the UI needs some work as far as user friendliness goes. But over all very simple to figure out. Just be patient with the game and learn as you go.


A couple things I see as of yet:

1: Truck mechanics. - Truck is very squirly on the road, physics need to be adjusted for the vehicle, and possibly others to crisp the experience up a little.

2: UI in Game. -
Map: I would like to see the map be a little better in respects to being able to set waypoints for areas in the map. Although play area is small/medium size for this type of game, it would be nice for keeping track of where you need to be.

3: Sandbox mode. - I would love a mode in which I don't have to go through the stages of mining. Starting small with the highbanker, and leading up to the biggest wash plant. Something with unlimited money, and the ability to just play with the game and what you can and can't do over all in game.

There is a lot here with the game, and a lot that can be done in the future. More vehicles, washplants, accesories, etc... Maybe even a mod community? It's a buy for me, but I am a sucker for sim type games.
