Gold Rush: Gold Simulator 3D

In "Gold Rush: Gold Simulator 3D," you become a gold prospector who has come to seek his fortune armed with a metal detector and a shovel. Gold, silver, and ancient treasures are hidden underground here, and your task is to find them, dig them up, clean them, and sell them for a profit. You’ll have to start by doing everything by hand, but over time you’ll earn enough money to buy new equipment, set up processing stations, repair machinery, and even build houses. The game is designed as an open-world sandbox, so you decide for yourself how to develop your business.

How to play?

First, gather your gear: a metal detector, a shovel, and a bucket. The marker will lead you to the spot where you should look for gold. Walk around with the metal detector until it starts beeping and glowing green—that means there’s a find beneath you. Take the shovel and dig around the marked spot until the rock is free from the ground. The game will let you know when it’s ready to be retrieved. Put the ore in the bucket and follow the indicator again. Keep in mind that the bucket can only hold one unit of ore, so you’ll have to process each find separately. First, you need to wash the gold to remove large debris, then small pebbles, so that only pure metal remains. Transfer it to a jar and take it to the scales. After that, go back for more ore and repeat the process: dig, wash, clean, and weigh. You sell your haul through a computer that functions like a trading platform. You don’t have to sell every find right away: you can make several trips, accumulate more gold, and sell it all at once. The price per gram fluctuates constantly, so it’s more profitable to wait until it rises higher. Use the money you earn to buy and upgrade your metal detector, shovel, and bucket, but be sure to set aside a little for repairs on the tractor parked nearby. From time to time, you’ll receive letters from home asking you to send money. If you have some spare cash, send it, and in return you’ll receive bonuses for your next purchases. Ore reserves at each location are limited, and the game will warn you in advance when they start to run out. If you can’t dig any further with the shovel, take some dynamite from the cabinet and blow up the ground to reach deeper layers. When the gold runs out at the first site, you can move on to a new area and continue mining on a larger scale, even using heavy machinery.
