Treasure Hunter World

I was so glad to find this simulator! It took a while searching the App Store for one and I’m glad my search was rewarded! I do wish there was a way to get rid of ads. As far as I know they’re just for getting tips about quests, but the first time I saw one it made me jump because I was in the zone like I would be when I’m out hunting and the ad jarred me back and I lost my zone and shut the game down. I’ll try it again but if I have to watch ads, I’m done. A true Premium version with no iap would be greatly appreciated. It would also be nice if there was some sort of character customization or at the very least the option to play as a female. I’m surprised there aren’t any other sims that are along the same lines, since metal detecting is such a popular hobby! I’ll probably play this one and hope someone makes a sim with no iap as a premium game. I’d definitely pay good money for a good premium experience!

Being an amateur metal detector, this is the first game I have come across that is amazing in its attention to detail and realistic view of the hobby. Wish I had this before I began my first searches years ago on the beach. Makes me want to dust off my equipment and see what I can find!

Had a minor issue with optimization for iOS that was promptly fixed over a weekend... now that I’ve been able to play steadily to my heart’s desire since, I just don’t see how a simulation could get more realistic. In the real world, if you’re hunting a site and people who live nearby have lost something of value somewhere close, odds are, they’re going to ask you to take a look for it. Sometimes there is a reward, sometimes it’s just their sincere appreciation for a dear lost item returned. Either way, it’s all worth it! That little touch of realism makes this game incredibly addictive and provides plenty of side quests for developing your detectorist skills within the app. TALK to everyone! Almost everyone in the game that you can interact with has a side quest for you to retrieve a lost item. I have cleared two just today and have four more just in the first Hamlet in the game. Kudos to the devs for making a great simulation with an intriguing story. OH YEAH! Don’t forget to pass that pinpointer over a hole you just retrieved a rusty padlock(for example) from... there may just be a valuable coin buried a bit deeper! Another touch of realism that I think a ton of developers might have overlooked! Just because you picked up an item near the surface doesn’t mean that hole is cashed out, just like actual treasure hunting. Please keep up the good work, for avid enthusiasts like myself, this is a dream come true of a game for when you just CAN’T get out and swing the coil...
