Earning Potential:
Not a bad game by any means, but the max payout per day is 500 sats (about 30 cents) so you’ll make $9 a month maximum if you cash out every day. Fortunately after a few days of progression, you can just “reset” over and over and it only takes a few minutes of “effort” to hit the max daily points.
About Bitcoin Miner
Probably the best “native sats” game on the zbd app, which is why I’m reviewing it first. It’s pretty basic “miner” game where you mine a level, buy new equipment and managers to get to the next level, and repeat. You can also select upgrades to make things go faster. The free ones are in the upgrade menu (orange and green arrow pointing up to the left of the mining pick) and the paid ones are in the shop (shopping cart bottom right). Most of the paid ones aren’t worth it except the $12.99 “remove ads permanently” one if you plan to play more than a month or 2.
Gameplay/tips
Essentially keep mashing the red circled button above until you have enough to upgrade the blue circled button, and then alternating between those 2 actions until you have enough to unlock the next coin (yellow circle). Rinse and repeat until you’ve unlocked all 10 levels and then you can unlock a new map on the world icon. There are 4 world maps with 10 sublevels each. You can periodically “sell” your farm by clicking this icon below:
After you click that you start from scratch, but the amount you sold for acts as a “multiplier” for future builds. So everytime you sell the entire mine, it’s easier/quicker to rebuild the next time. After selling enough times, you just sell/rebuild/wait 30 mins/sell again over and over and over. Every time you rebuild, you get 4 sats for every other “sublevel”. So once you are maxed out to the 10th layer of map 4, that’s 40 layers and every other one gives 4 sats for a total of 80 sats per rebuild. Once you’ve progressed a ways, rebuilding is SUPER fast and you can do it in about 30 seconds 6-7 times a day to max it out at 500 sats.
Here’s a video of how quick it progresses after about a week. I’ve maxed 3 maps and about 2 levels into the 4th, not how quick the sats go up. Then you just wait 30 mins, clear, and repeat about 7 times a day. It takes me about 1 minute to go from 125 to 190 sats in this video.
Pros and Cons
Pros: Super easy game, once you progress it’s a good “steady earner” for an easy 30 cents every day. Most games have big payouts up front and then nothing, so it’s nice to have a few steady long term ones.
Cons: Not the most fun to play. The first few days feel kind of tedious, and after that it’s just boring. Also has lots of ads, but that’s to be expected in a free game that pays to play.
