Boosts[]
Boosts are one of the most essential items in Idle Miner Tycoon, and the shop offers a variety of ways to buy them.
Mystery Boost Tickets: These tickets allow for a chance to get powerful boosts in your inventory. However, you can still have a chance by using Super Cash, with 150 for a Mystery Boost or 750 for a Super Mystery Boost.
Daily Boosts: Every day, 3 new boosts will appear, costing Super Cash. These boosts may be useful for obtaining powerful and long boosts, but sometimes, the offers give mediocre boosts that can be obtained in expeditions.
Other Offers: Some offers, like the Event Mine Offers, reward boosts when bought. Nevertheless, you can still find the free 50x for 5 minutes in many offers.
Chests[]
Chests are also an essential item since they reward cards that allow for upgrading collectables, further increasing the income factor in mines. More information about Chests can be found here.
Common Chest: Free with an ad(every 4 hours) OR 400 Super Cash
Rare Chest: 800 Super Cash
Epic Chest(At Least 1 Epic Card): 1,000 Super Cash

Research Points[]
Research Points, also called Cogs, can be bought in the shop with continent cash and super cash.
Alternatively, cogs can be bought in offers.
Other Offers[]
There are many other offers than the ones listed above.
Daily Reward: As the name suggests, the Daily Reward allows you to claim free rewards when you log on every day. You can get Super Cash, chests, and more.
Mainland Mine Gem Offers: Every 5 levels in the mainland, an offer pops up claiming to give you 5x the amount earned in that Mainland Level. However, these offers may take in little or no research from the Dawn Research Branch.
Continent Offers: These offers are unlocked when you open a new continent. These offers linger a bit, so you don't have to worry about buying them right away. They usually consist of a 500x for 5 minutes and other boosts.
Gems: If you don't want to buy the Mainland Gem Offers, you can buy individual types of gems for 1,500 Super Cash. In other words, you can buy any type of gem from your most profitable Mainland Mine.
Chest Offers: Explained in more in depth on this page, but they usually give a rare, epic, or legendary cards for the Mine Shaft, Elevator, or Warehouse.
Strategies[]
- After a certain point, common and rare chests become obsolete, so it's best to not spend Super Cash on them. However, you may find a legendary card in a common chest, so watch ads!
- It may be good to buy a few ancient cogs with Super Cash to jumpstart progress on the the other continents if you don't have the Ancient Continent.
- Super Cash will become rare, so only use it to buy necessary items in the shop. This may mean not spending them on Mystery Boost Tickets or the Lucky Wheel.
- The No Ads Offer is a good thing to have unless you are in the late game with many mines maxed.
