Apple II Kind of a 49rs theme text mode game where you buy mining supplies and dig or pan for gold. Part I remember the most is a spinning cursor as you dig. At the end it would tell you if you made money or starved to death. Played in my math class in the early 80s with Math Blaster. I'd love to play this today. I've hit a lot of AppleII archive sites and never seen it. Just want to starve to death again.

Now that I played it..... I'm not sure this is it. It could be though I remember it being very time consuming and nobody had enough computer time to finish it. There was just the one computer in our math class.

I thought it could be by MECC but Miners Cave is not it. The mining part was moving a spinning cursor into a wall. like - backspace \ backspace | backspace / backspace repeat. Goldfields is the closest so far but that overview map I'm pretty sure I would have remembered. It was the only game so far you could goldpan or mine with a pick. Anyway, fun stuff, thanks for digging around everyone.
