GOLD RUSH: The Game Review (PC)


The simulation-sandbox title GOLD RUSH: The Game is now available

GOLD RUSH: The Game was made in cooperation with the Discovery Channel and the TV show Gold Rush. Gold Rush: The Game is an action-packed simulation game with sandbox elements. Gamers get the chance to become a gold miner. The objective of the game is simple enough--players must work, dig and explore the world around them in order to become the richest person in Alaska. There is a ton of variety in gameplay due to all of the intrinsic machines available for finding as much gold as you possibly can.

GOLD RUSH: The Game has released several updates since its release adding new vehicles, features and bug fixes. The game contains 4 unique gold claims and each one contains its own unique terrain and background story. Gamers being able to explore these various elements of the game's detailed world really adds a lot of immersion to GOLD RUSH: The Game's overall gameplay. However, gameplay can get a tad bit repetitive at times.

GOLD RUSH: The Game doesn't have a campaign but instead a sandbox mode is where you start out. You spend most of your time in the excavator and all of the mining machines have been created with high-fidelity in mind meaning that steering these machines is eerily realistic. The game also tries to keep you immersed in the simulation with the Day/Night cycle which creates unique challenges all on its own. Miners will often be hindered by weather conditions and the forces of nature.

In the end, Gold Rush: The Game is a solid simulation game allowing players to experience the unique moments of mining their own gold and becoming one of the richest people in Alaska. To learn more, visit the official GOLD RUSH: The Game Steam page.
