I've tried it in the mine but it never activates no matter what type of stone or dirt fills the screen. It just highlights then, nothing. I've got 21 TNT. I've never been able to use it once.

The Dynamite is only used after a gas explosion to clear the rubble.
if you've not had a gas explosion, you'll have no rubble to clear and it wont work.

THANKS SO MUCH! It was killing me trying to find out why I couldn't use it. I always remove the gas before it explodes. That makes total sense. I appreciate the quick reply.

I'm not sure exactly how you 'win' I'm loving it and in no hurry of it ending.

Its addicting because its simple to play and fun also you see your town growing which is nice. thankfully you don't need to use the iap's. I have almost 2000 gold and I earned it all. I've happily rated this game 5/5 in fact I've really not played anything else since I bought it.

My experience has been the same. I downloaded it immediately and haven't played anything else, not even pocket planes or hero academy, not even LOL! The game is relaxing and simple, but not easy. There is a little strategy involved, nothing too taxing. I really recommend it. And I have no need for IAPs, I can earn currency and progress as a reflection of time spent in the fields or the mine. It's a good game.

There is an option to recruit new worker, but without a specific job. What does this option do?

When you select it you can then place him wherever you want just like the workers that you get when you build houses.

At what stage approximately are you supposed to start matching higher-end items like cows or apples? For farming that has only 24 turns (with a few bonus rounds), I am finding it difficult to get enough matches to escalate the matching. Am I expected to have an easier time later on because these items will appear more often?

Cows and apples are required after mid teen levels for placement for more advance buildings. Once you are able to match the number of pigs required to make a cow, and same with carrots for apples, you get them and the tool that helps you to harvest them is available to build.

And it does get easier to make matches for these things. Later when you have certain buildings, matching certain items on the board no longer advances the clock. Also, cows and apples can start appearing on the board without matches, and having more workers, number of matches need to get the advance items decreases. As you progress, you will also get more tools out of the new buildings for harvesting these items quickly .
