Elemental Mode offers a new way for you to test your mining skills!

On the World Map, there are two buttons at the top - Main Mode and Elemental Mode.

- Main Mode = the normal game which you play as soon as you start Idle Miner Tycoon

- Elemental Mode = you can unlock this when you have collected enough Prestige Stars. In this mode, you play the Elemental Mines.

 

Each Continent in Elemental Mode has an Element assigned to it, and your Super Managers will also be paired with one or more Elements.

- e.g. in Elemental Mode, Ice Continent = "Frost Continent"

- e.g. Super Manager "Aurora" has the "Frost" Element

 

Each Element increases or decreases the effectiveness of the Super Manager in their current Mine.

- e.g. Aurora will be more effective in an Ice Continent Mine, but less effective in a Nature Continent Mine.

 

More information on the Super Managers’ Elements is shown in the Super Managers' tower on the world map.

 

Elemental Mines are separate from the Main mines, and they give different rewards for Prestige, such as:

- Essences = used to craft additional Fragments for the Super Managers that you already have.

 

You can swap between the two modes at any time via the world map.
