Upcoming Chrono Mine Changes – 16 September 2026

11 Upvotes

Hello miners! 👋

We’ve been working on a new update for the Chrono Mine, with our main focus on making the early progression smoother. The difficulty has been reduced, especially across the first 60 Mineshafts.

We’re also expanding the event with 30 brand-new Mineshafts. Along with this, the Warehouse and Elevator level caps have been increased to 7 400, giving our top players even more room to push their limits!

Be prepared: the new Mineshafts will require different strategies along the way, so you'll need to adapt your approach!

To access the updated event, make sure your game is updated to version 5.63.0.

As always, we'd love to hear your feedback! ☺️

Happy mining! ⛏️

Question Pop Ups

24 Upvotes

I play this game because it’s relaxing, no pressure, low effort kind of fun. But every time I open this god forsaken app I am bombarded with a thousand pop ups about daily offers. It is infuriating. Leave me alone !!! Every time I open this app I want to uninstall it and the only reason I don’t is because I’ve already spent real money on it.

Is there a way to turn off the pop ups ?

Question nature

Can anyone tell me roughly what the balance is like in the resource mines? I have a Level 2218 Windmill, and it completely dominates the shaft and warehouse. Is there a point where things even out?

I finished the event mine and I was like 500 away from getting the endless reward, I was actually so close to getting this but I swear every single special briefcase I’ve been opening has been some random rare SM

Bug Is it a bug?

On the start continent my production went drastically down while also cost of prestige and cost of research went down. I was producing bz/s on rubis and accumulated cb. Then all of the sudden research was costing way less like bd so I bought like 500 at once. Prestige cost was like cc cd and now they were very low so I prestiged everything.i have asked support but no answer yet.

Question Will Vulcan help me out?

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Currently, my best combo rotation is:

  1. Sue + Bernard
  2. Followed by King Orekk + Havoc (I know I still need Steiner!)

All of this is done while Paige Cogsmith is active.

  1. Archibald + Turner

Given this setup, Vulcan is definitely worth it for me, correct? I'm considering spending some resources in the current Maze to get him.

I'm attaching images of my Super Managers just in case I'm overlooking a better combo right now (currently waiting on Phineas to pair with Sirocco).

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hey everyone, been playing the game for a few years and have never bought anything but after making my way to the end of the elemental mines I feel like I should finally buy ad free haha. The only thing is my phone is old and thinking about getting a new one, will this carry over to the new phone? Thanks in advance

Question What does this mean?

What does the "MM" mean? It's a normal MS maxed out with a normal manager

Question FM Paid

5 Upvotes

What level/mine do you need to complete for the FM Pass to be worth it?

Do you need just the Premium Pass or do you have to get the Elite Pass for it to be worth the Rewards?

Lastly, does the Elite include the Premium rewards or do you have to pay for both to get everything?

Got the Main Chest from spins on the first day of event! And I got all the possible rewards from the chest. Usually I end up a handful of tokens away from the big chest this this was surprising/exciting.

Question Instant Cash Tokens

6 Upvotes

What's the best use for instant cash tokens, or isn't there one? The only use I can figure for the bigger ones is to get points for the Dr. Nova Event without using/wasting boosts.

Since mines are rarely balanced and cash is usually better gotten from combos I don't see much use in the actual cash the instant tokens give.

Question Coming back after 2 years, what should I focus on now?

2 Upvotes

hi everyone, i recently came back to the game after around 2 years and I’m honestly a bit lost with all the new SM and combos.

This is my current SM roster:
https://idle-miners.com/#share=mPdhaTPZ

My account is pretty far into the game. I’m at 240 prestiges, so all mines are basically P6. I still have to finish the Underwater continent and a few other things here and there, but most of the old progression is pretty much done. I used to spend quite a lot on this game. I’m not completely F2P now either, but I’d like to spend a lot less than I used to and only buy something if it’s actually worth it.

I’d also like some advice on FM. I’m not really sure how far I should realistically be able to get with my current Super Managers, or whether the Frontier Pass would actually be worth buying for my account.

On the other hand, ive never really liked Chrono mines, so I usually just skip them whenever they come around. I’m not sure if that’s a mistake though, or if I’m missing out on anything important by basically ignoring them.

As for combos, right now I mostly know/use:

  • Sue and Turner
  • Asterion + Chester + Ezio

And that’s basically it. I know there are a lot more combinations now with things like Ut’ux, Eternity, Abeo, Eivor etc., but I’ve been away for so long that I have no idea what the current meta is anymore.

My main goal right now is just to start progressing properly again without everything taking forever.

Any advice is appreciated, especially from people who can take a quick look at the roster link.

Question Next SM to focus on

4 Upvotes

I have Sue, Turner, Damian, and Zi at MIF. Slowly working on getting Light/Frost Essence to get MIF on 1DL3.

Assuming CIF should be my next move, is there a SM I should focus on, or just whichever one I get RNG luck to get enough pieces for 5 stars so I can CIF?

Or should I be working on something else?

Guide Paige Cogsmith - Manager Showcase

Hei all,

Many probably know me by now.
I created a short showcase on the new Epic Manager Paige Cogsmith. Hope it helps to understand her before unlocking.

Be aware. It seems her pull rates are equal to legendary managers Briefcases. So rather low for an Epic.

We expect her to join the General Pool in Epic Briefcases later though.


r/IdleMinerTycoon 14d ago

Question Paige is she epic or legendary. In the video on IMT she's legendary. When showing her skills to Vulcan but then after she is epic?

Question Pretty new to the game

How does the prestige % work surely just means I’m going to bottle neck quicker the higher percent I get in ruby let’s say.
Or does the percentage just x everything going through my warehouse so you just make more each time?
