User Reviews for Emerald Mine

Great game!

This is a cool little game. With so many levels it could keep you glued to the screen for hours. It reminds me of a game called Rockman. The only real difference is that if you also walk u der neath the gems and stay for too long, they fall and crush you as well as the rocks. I strongly advise anyone who likes running around huge screens collecting gems to get this fantastic little game.

Great Port of a Great Game

I loved this game on Linux and Windows and love that I can now play it on my iPad. It plays just as well here and I love the iCade-compatible controller support. Must have for puzzle nerds like me.

Can't be played - controls incomplete

You can't win any hard levels as the controls are poorly thought out. You must be able to stand still and remove sand beside you. Too bad, I used to have this game, I love it, but it's unplayable in its current form

It's Good

It's a good game, but I'd suggest that they enlarge the buttons. Yeah, my thumbs are too fat for these buttons, causing me to miss pressing them.

Great game

Very good port of a classic Amiga game. Good control options to cater to touch interface, although a few more refinements could take it to the next level. Gameplay is still great 20 years on!FYI to people asking for no timer... You can turn this off in the game options.

Awesome.

I used to play this on the Amiga in 1989. This is a really good port of the game as far as gameplay and sounds. The only thing I noticed is that there is no music on the games first screen with the picture. On the Amiga version if you let it sit there, music would play. It was actually pretty awesome too. Please bring the music back for the full nostalgic effect.

Ok

Love the game but very sad that it keeps quitting on me at certain levels. One of the levels is at 40-3. So much that I have to delete the app and download again and remember not to use level 40-3... And there is another level like this, somewhere around 32 :(

Awesome APP!!!

Ohh man, this brings me back to the Amiga days!!! Makes me regret selling my Amiga.. Wish there were more Amiga games available for the ipad.. The controls are hard to get used to.. Instead of using the standard buttons for controls (a = left, d = right, w = up, s = down) the down button is x.. Makes it that much harder to control.. but otherwise a great game!!

Almost perfect port

Wonderful port of a classic game. The controls could be improved a bit, but totally playable as-is. Highly recommended!

Rocks and diamonds

Anything AMIGA related deserves 5 stars - especially this all time classic.Can anyone help with the following related - but much larger game? I wish I had the knowledge to port this to mobile devices...Google rocks and diamonds for a Free, non-mobile game including Emerald Mine (just a small part of the entire web page/forum/levels download area). R&D includes an amazing game level/custom element maker. Also download the great 3-D ish "Bd2K3" levels.
