This is an idle / incremental / clicker game about mining rocks, crafting bars and progressing through vast upgrade trees to progress further into the mines.
Idle Obelisk Miner has A LOT of features to keep you engaged, including:
๏ The Obelisk - Build up your stats in order to defeat the obelisk, doing so grants rewards and unlocks new content
๏ LOTS of upgrades - The game features alot of different upgrade trees for a bunch of different stat types, lots of which are locked behind milestones
๏ Bombs - Unlock and level up bombs via the workshop and other means, each providing power and utility!
๏ Active and idle gameplay - You can both play actively by mining, upgrading and firing bombs or you can idle with drones, auto bombing functionality and rewarding offline progress!
๏ Prestige - Unlock powerful artifacts to enhance your stats…

Open observations that have not cleared the evidence bar.
Aggressive ad load: raised by 9 distinct reviewers (2.2% of 406 reviews scanned)

Pay to progress: raised by 8 distinct reviewers (2.0% of 406 reviews scanned)
This observation has not cleared the required evidence standard.
Advancement or competition is gated behind spending money rather than playing.
Paywall blocks the basics: raised by 5 distinct reviewers (1.2% of 406 reviews scanned)
This observation has not cleared the required evidence standard.
The core of the app — not extras — sits behind payment, or previously-free function moved behind a paywall.
Nothing was published as a thing to watch for in this assessment. That is not a finding that nothing is wrong with the app.

Insane — I seen a bunch of OSRS content creators promoting and thought it would just be another terrible game full of ads and no point but I’m over a month in and it’s honestly addicting as a mf and the more you play the more you unlock…
I love it — I really like games like this, with this kind of chill gameplay and doesn’t force you to watch ads
Fun and Ad Free! — Great game. Exactly as advertised and not ruined by ads and in app purchases.
As promised — This game is everything advertised. No ads at all, no need to pay to win. Progress is slow, but OSRS taught me to be patient.
Free! — Are you kidding me?! Most inc and idle games nowadays are either abandoned or pay-to-win. And gambling?! For free?! Let’s go!!!
Great game — Finally a game without ads and pay to win mechanics that I can enjoy. Very fun so far
A+ game with balanced progression — I’ve thoroughly enjoyed playing this game in my down time, it has the perfect balance of goals, progression and always has you coming back working towards targets that take time but are achievable. It…
One Of The Best Games — This is one of the best games I’ve ever had the pleasure of playing. It’s very fun and there are multiple guides to help get you started if you need direction. It’s also very free to play friendly and nothing is…
Nostalgic of old gaming — I absolutely love this game, it feels like playing a mobile game in the years 2013-2015 before ads took over everything with micro transactions everywhere. This game genuinely respects your time, nothing is…
A sampled review illustrates one person’s experience. It does not establish a finding on its own.
Supporting measurements. They are not a complete list of possible harms or positives. “Not assessed” means we could not measure it — never zero, never a pass.
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence, not a finding.

Appworthy
idle-obelisk-miner-apple-6448125670Assessed 2026-10-18 from 406 user reviews, the store listing and its privacy label. We have not scanned the app's package, so nothing on this page was read from inside the app itself.
What the stores publish. Store ratings are the stores’ numbers, not Appworthy’s, and are never averaged across stores.
No itemized purchase list is available for this listing.
This assessment is produced automatically. Three independent signals are read — user reviews, the store listing and the store privacy disclosure — and each candidate finding is filed under the sources that support it.
No charge stands on one kind of evidence — with one published exception. A finding is either a measured fact that anyone can reproduce (an ad SDK is in the package; every subscription bills weekly; the privacy label omits a tracker we can see), or it is an interpretation — and an interpretation needs independent sources to agree before it reaches the catch list. The exception is a harm only users can see: a charge may publish from reviews alone, as “Reported by N users”, once enough reviewers raise it to clear that charge’s own published bar. That agreement rule is what replaced the human reviewer, not a model’s confidence.
There is no overall score, on purpose. A 0–99 number was published here until 2026-09-15. It was withdrawn because it discriminated too weakly to be the instrument — 44.7% of every pair of apps tied — and because a single number is a verdict where a count is an observation. What publishes instead is a row of measurements, each of which says what was counted and, where we could not look, says that instead.
Findings under One source only are real reports we do not stand behind as findings. They are shown because withholding them entirely would hide a genuine complaint, and labelled because publishing them as charges would be an accusation off a single source.
Write to [email protected], or use the form. Name the finding, the app version and the evidence that needs correcting. Factual corrections are free and never depend on buying anything.
