Can you make some proper Bed's?

Could you make some Bed's like in Total Miner: Forge? And if you do can you make it like you can sleep in them to pass Night's. Try to make them more realistic, Please?!

Good, but y promo code?

I give it a nine because, one, there are no vehicles, two, because of promo codes for creative mode, and three, because mineral land got smaller upon the update. Also, though, its fun, and has weapons and teleporters. Why are there promo codes? One of my friends have creative mode but some of us can't connect to him. It would be really nice if creative mode came with the game. Then I would recommend it more. Please reply, I want your answer on this. Also please add in vehicles, like trains, planes boats, and automobiles. Is it possible to have rivers, oceans, sea monsters, in place of the mountains or desert? That would be really cool, and then I'd play it and get the magority of my friends to buy it and play it instead of total miner forge.

Amazing!

I love this game, but I would love it even better if some improvements were made. Namely, I would really like to play local. I often have friends over at my house, and we'd love to be playing it, as it is an awesome game, but I only have one x-box. If you would increase the local player limit to at least two, then I would most certainly be ecstatic! I've already made a fort completely out of bloodstone, and I've maxed out all of my weapons. I often go dragon hunting, and I have a wall in my fort with a block for every dragon I've killed. It is awesome, just please, PLEASE, expand the local player amount!

I play this game all the time and can't stop. It is fun but I wish you could save endurance worlds. I keep trying to get dragon endurance by killing the undead dragon in endurance mode but it is very hard. I'll just find some people to help but other than that the game is amazing. My favorite video game.

Best game ever!!! But me and my friends play a lot and we wanted
To know if we could have vehicles. Trains what my Friends want
For this game instead of teliporting you can have trains. They
Could be used to send supplies to each Oder . But we (the gamers)
Would have to build the train and the station and tracks for it to work

My new favorite Indie Game!

I really enjoy having this game, the fact that it is a mix of my favorite two types of games. First Person Shooters(FPS) and block-building. This game is my all-time favorite and I can also invite my good friends to help me fend off zombies and go mining with. I also like that it is a challenge because unlike my old favorite, Total Miner: Forge, you have to go mining to get the materials you need to survive. All I have to improve is the following:

• More decorative blocks, so we can express our creativity even further.
• Blocks like signs or something, something interactive other than doors.
• More types of doors
• More game modes:
- Dragon Survival?
- Race?

That's all I have. As I said earlier, I enjoy having this.

why

seriously 98% of the people who bought this game has fun playing it, but after a day or two its boring. but then glitches came out and made the game extremely fun again. and those kids told others about it and they bought your game. this game is one of the most bought games and you keep patching the reasons people buy it. its a 3 dollar game not a 60. just because the community is having fun building city's and fighting off zombies while doing doesnt mean its cheating. theres no ranking system in the game and theres no benefit besides having fun. so please game creators give us our fun back. sincerley the thousands of people who dont have fun with your game anymore

LOVE IT

I absolutely love the game, my friends and I spend more time on it than I'd like to admit but, you could add one or two things to make it even better. Things like water and lava, and maybe something to move the water and lava, it would be really cool to build a castle with a moat (or maybe a LAVA moat). Maybe add something like tracks and a mine cart, along with some other little things to keep us busy and customize our worlds.

Checkpoint

Also another thing would be something to use as a checkpoint....such as a bed you make out of materials that would also have to be added in like sheep for wool for cloth and then add that to wood....pretty much like mine craft because it is very annoying being 15 seconds from your fort....dying and running back to find your inventory gone.
Please take into consideration
Thank you

great game, but!

its a great game u have to mine for certain resources make stuff to survive and i hate but love the dragon! i put 7 down for overall fun rating cause there is a lot of possibility for this game! for instance, its a block based world and some of the resources r copper iron gold diamond and bloodstone! u can make various guns with this items i was thinking about what if the player got tired of only shooting at zombies why not create swords and chainsaws or maybe even a catapult also how about some dynamite so we can blow either zombies up or tear down a mountain! also i would like to see more zombies (example animal zombies) and more resources like nickel and water (for example; lakes and oceans) and steel! oh and while im talking about the water y not make an underground world, like before the underworld u can have it water and ur avatar swims in the water it has more resources and even throw in some fish lol zombie fish! also i was think of making a respawn point for say u want to make a base some else besides the respawn tower and u cant find it so y not have a respawn marker that u can teleport to where ever u put the respawn point! also i would like to add a lit damage that the players can do to one another cause me and my friend like playing around and wse like want something more that just blocking ppl in with the blocks! make it a lil more competitive! thanks for the great game i just hope u take my ideas into consideration that it will make it some what funnier for me!

2. alow player vs. player combat
3. sniper rifle/ rifle with scope
4. explosives
Please help us get our message out to the creators of the game, so that they might put it in the game.

This game is nearly EPIC

My biggest complaint is it is dark way too much. It's A major eye strain how about a little more sunshine. Need more items to craft anything is fine just more stuff. how about a vendor of some sort and a World Map I'v built stuff and never found it again. I placed markers all the way across the world just so i could find my way back to my diamond bloodstone mine plus my biggest fort. Could just have a random mount drop from a dragon haha. or some armor i hate getting 2 shotted from behind when i have a lot of items on me really sucks loosing them all. In the future i hope they drop the avatar thing I'd rather level diff toons like a rpg. oh yea and a SAVE option and local play with no live requirement.

Also, the names of all 5 current guns are:
AssaultRifle: AK-47
ShotGun: Model 870 Tactical
Rifle: M1 Garand
SubMachineGun: Mac-10 (Silencer)
Pistol: SW M1911

Good, but needs more updates

This game is addicting and fun, but it needs a couple of things to make it really good and raise the score to 10/10. I would love for them to make s split screen mode, so me and a friend can play on the same xbox. Also, the game needs doors so I don't have to leave a big gap in my "secure" castle. I think if they added a bigger variety of blocks it would add the the free-build experience. Other blocks could include like beds, chairs, couches, etc etc. I played another game like this one on the ipod touch and it had TNT blocks that could blow up a large area, water blocks that cause you to float up, and ladder blocks. Castle Miner Z is a diamond in the rough I would say, but a very good diamond in the rough. Thanks for listening to my rambling suggestions :D

This game is awesome - castle miner z review by me

This game is awesome. I already had regular castle miner and that was great, and all, but overall, it started to get boring. So just yesterday i decided to check the marketplace for games and i noticed this. When I saw it, my first reaction was pressing 'A' on the game immediately. I then downloaded the trial and it was awesome. I couldn't wait for the next time I went to buy a prepaid card. So on the the ratings, the game overall is very well developed, but there is one, ONE, thing that I cannot get over, the hand positioning. It looks like every person is a zombie with both of their hands sticking out, but that is not going to ruin a game like this. I hope we can work on this and maybe even get a war styled building franchise.
So I give it a 10/10!

Pretty Sweet

With all of the mining games showing up on Indie Games, it's hard to pick which one's the best. Castle Miner Z definately stands out from the pack. Sequel (?) to Castle Miner (which, all in all, was kinda bland), Castle Miner Z has you gathering, crafting, building, and best of all- FIGHTING ZOMBIES. Yes. This game is pretty much just really amazing. There's lots of varying terrain to explore rangeing from arctic terrain to more desert like terrain to hell (yep, hell) and everything in-between. You can make pistols, smg's, assault rifles, axes, spades, pickaxes and more. Unfortunately, I do have a few complaints with the game; sometimes the amount of zombies can be underwhelming (even though they ARE tough) and there's not many block types. However, these minor flaws really don't subtract from the overall experience, and I'd be quick to recomend this game to anyone who likes zombies, shooters, or minecraft.
