Gold Miner - 2 Player presents a highly competitive mining adventure where you get to either compete against a friend or take on the challenge posed by the CPU to establish your dominance in diamond mining. Whether you choose to play all by yourself or team up with a pal on the very same computer, your main objective is to amass a greater number of diamonds than your adversary. Each player has the task of operating a mechanical gripping claw that oscillates back and forth right above the concealed treasures lurking underground. You need to time your actions with absolute precision so as to lower your grabber precisely at the opportune moment to firmly clasp onto those valuable gems and precious metals, hauling them up to the surface before your opponent gets the chance. Given that there's only a restricted quantity of diamonds available for mining, having a strategic sense of timing and maintaining an accurate aim are of utmost importance for achieving victory.
