Gold Miner: Special Edition – Collect Gold, Diamonds, and Hidden Treasures
Gold Miner: Special Edition is a mining game where you control an old miner searching for valuable objects underground. Your mining machine has a swinging claw that can grab gold nuggets, diamonds, and other treasures.
You need to collect enough money before the timer runs out to complete each level.
This special edition adds new stages, improved artwork, and extra ways to play. It also includes a shop where you can buy useful equipment before beginning the next mining challenge.
Send Your Claw Underground
The miner stands above an underground area filled with different objects.
A large claw swings automatically from left to right.
You need to watch its movement and release it when it points toward something valuable.
The claw travels downward and grabs the first suitable object it touches.
Once it catches something, it pulls the item back toward the miner.
Small objects usually return faster, while large gold nuggets take longer to pull up.
Choosing the right target makes a difference because the timer continues running during every grab.
Collect Gold and Avoid Worthless Rocks
Different underground objects provide different rewards.
Gold nuggets are worth money, with larger nuggets usually providing greater value.
Diamonds are especially valuable because they can increase your earnings without requiring a heavy load.
Rocks are much less useful.
A large rock can take valuable time to pull up while providing very little money.
Try to aim for treasures that offer a good reward without slowing down your progress too much.
Reach the Money Target Before Time Runs Out
Every stage gives you a money goal.
You must collect enough valuable objects before the countdown reaches zero.
Reaching the target allows you to advance to another mining area.
The later stages contain different arrangements of treasures and obstacles.
Sometimes the largest gold nugget provides the best reward.
Other situations make it smarter to collect several smaller objects before attempting a heavy piece.
You need to judge how much time remains before choosing your next target.
Buy Useful Items Between Levels
Gold Miner: Special Edition includes a shop where you can purchase equipment.
Strength potions help the miner pull heavy objects more efficiently.
Dynamite allows you to remove an unwanted object from the claw.
Other useful items can improve your chances of reaching the next money target.
Some stages also provide access to a slot machine when you collect the necessary coins.
You can decide whether to spend your earnings on helpful equipment or save money for later challenges.
Learn the Claw Controls
Press the Down Arrow or click to release the claw.

Become a Smarter Gold Miner
