EternaMine Review Cons:
- Very slow starter.
- Cannot rebind controls for both the keyboard and the controller.
- It’s not until you unlock the random events that can happen like bombs, nukes, and enemies that the game is engaging.
- The level-up pop-up can be turned off but it would be better if it showed up in a better position otherwise if you turn it off you don’t see what rewards you get.
- No real graphics settings.
- So many upgrades and unlocks that you can miss stuff.
