Ratings and reviews

Very nicely designed idle game, simple mechanics and no forced ads/no p2w. Progress moves quickly with the main limiting factor seeming to be the stars used to purchase upgrades. The upgrade respec is free and does not require prestige, so you can freely experiment with different setups or move stars to get particular upgrades. Not sure when I first tried the game, years ago by now. The math scared me away. Came back recently and am just ignoring the math and focusing on making big #s. Very fun

For years this has stuck in my head as one of the best idle games out there. It always feels like there's something productive to do, and the way automation works within it is super cool. It's got a bit of a learning curve, but it makes up for that quite quickly. The story is also amazing at sitting right between plausible and absurd.

Best Idle I've played. Really focuses on the numbers and not the flashy. Makes me feel like breaking out spreadsheets, but also so perfectly idle. No offline limits (I think), no daily login gimmick (besides progressing of course). Just a game to be played. Beautiful. Cherry on top is the permanent ad purchase is not over priced and very worth it. I'd pay it just to support this developer.
