Is there anything like Motherload for the iPhone?

[Jorlen]

Is there anything sort of like motherload for the iPhone? For those of you who haven't played it, here's a video link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qQvd3D_euI

I don't care if it's not exactly like it, but similar in terms of gameplay, i.e collecting stuff, leveling up, planning your resources, etc. Is there any game like it on the app store?

On another note, it would be awesome if a dev picked up on this idea and coded a clone. I mean, tons of other flash games have received numerous clones. Is it because Motherload wasn't all that popular? How many of you guys have played / enjoyed it?

[WOW_GEE]

Motherlode is awesome! I'd play that all the time during keyboarding class!
As far as i know, no, there isn't anything like that on the iphone. Would be an awesome port, though.

[DHrox]

I don't recall seeing any games like this. And to answer your question, a clone might not be very successful if Motherload was not very popular. Unless it's cheap. However, I wouldn't mind getting a clone.

is that your video? that guy is hilarious... i haven't heard of that game but i laughed the whole time

[LizArd]

Hmm I do remember seeing games like this in appstore. Not the same theme but the things you mentioned were there - collecting stuff, planning resorces etc. Can't remember any names though :/

[Donburns99]

There is Miners. Never played it, but I don't think it'll live up to your expectations.

Only game that comes to mind though.

i talked with Xgen Studios:

Re: motherload
Hi Mek,

It's something we're definitely considering, however we've seen no less than 2 or 3 Motherload clones already in development. We would want to bring something new to the table rather than just a port, but stay tuned.

We appreciate you dropping us a line!

I did a search for any clones, and can't seem to find any...
when i do, I will be sure to grab it, cause i think it would be amazing for the iphone....for some reason the game is so addicting....even just to see how deep you can drill

[Stykman]

i would love motherload for iphone an instabuy for me

[PointOfLight]

It appears the video for Motherload has been removed. Here's a link to the actual game, however: Motherload (http://www.xgenstudios.com/play/motherload). I'll have to check it out when I get home tonight.

even if it was......one million dollars!

[falloutmike]

Isn't there a game called goldminer or something like that, similiar to motherload? It's either a dollar or 2 I believe.

[LordGek]

There is California Gold Rush from Digital Chocolate coming out in the near future:

[mek]

Cali gold rush does look intriguing, i think i will pick it up....its not motherload per say...but it will do

i think one of the things that i liked about motherload was ..instead of a fixed energy per level...you have fuel, and you could only go so far...you could upgrade your machine, your fuel tank etc...so you could go deeper...

but i will def. pick up Cali gold Rush

Motherload might be my favorite flash game of all time. Just found I Dig It for the iphone. It is amazing.

[SoCal_Sponger]

Yea, I Dig It looks like a great Motherload clone

[patoalvalc]

I Dig It is exactly the same as Motherload I've played both and I think you will like it, its almost the same

[Devilishly Good]

Yes, I Dig It is definitely something you should try out...and there is a Lite version:

I Dig It (http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=314864297&mt=8)

I Dig It Lite (http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=320632532&mt=8)

Welcome to the forums, but I think we already covered that...

[Abyssal Lego]

Take a look at "I Dig It"
it's very similar if not better

I think this guy's a troll. He just joined today, and logged off right after he made that post...

[NoobTouch]

Mother load on the ios is " i dig it " everything is the same except the graphics are better.

[SkyMuffin]

Spice Miner is similar, although it doesn't play the same. Terracore Adventures is almost exactly the same as Motherload, although without the physics that Motherload has.

*space miner

woops correcting a typo from months in the past

[Flyinghobo888]

It's kinda expencive for iPad but for iPod and iPhone it's 0.99$
