About this game

Build a factory where every connection matters.

Idle Gears is a relaxing idle tycoon game focused on simple mechanics, steady progression, and satisfying motion. Place gears, connect them to the main drive, and watch your factory come to life—one click at a time.

How it works
- Each board has a main gear that powers the system
- Place gears on the board and earn income only when they physically connect
- Merge identical gears to create higher-level machines with greater output
- Every rotation produces a subtle mechanical click designed to feel calm and rewarding

Progress at your pace
- Earn money, level up, and unlock new factory sections
- Complete missions to earn Gems and Ingots
- Invest in permanent upgrades to improve efficiency
- Tier up individual sectors for focused income boosts

Long-term growth
- Overclock your empire to reset and gain powerful permanent bonuses
- Compete on the global leaderboard or play entirely offline
- Progress continues even when the game is closed

Idle Gears is designed to be played your way—actively or passively, online or offline. No rush, no pressure. Just steady growth, clean systems, and the quiet satisfaction of a well-running machine.

Ratings and reviews

Games like this really need to learn what they are, they're something just to do in the background and barely a 'game' littered with ads and overpriced purchases, it's ridiculous honestly and I'm tired of seeing it so this junk gets a 1 star. Main reasons. -Forced ads -More ads to unlock singular parts of each 'stage' -overpriced ad removal cost for an idle game. -blatant disregard for their player base. overall, just a pile of garbage with a coat of paint, avoid if you value your time.

The game won't stay on for more than 5 minutes or so without crashing. It's consistent. Without fail, in fact. Otherwise a fairly simple game. No unusual sketchiness with the ads and such.... yet. Fix the crashing and I'll up the stars significantly! But in its current state...... I can't give more than one. EDIT: The crashes are now happening within 10 seconds or less of opening the game (if it opens at all), again, without fail. Currently unplayable.

For an ASMR kind of game it's really good, my only issue is that the gears don't have enough of a clunk to it (could be me). And no auto merge or quick merge or anything else like that so it makes it extremely tedious to buy 3 lvl 1 gears which so far you can't upgrade it to start beyond lvl 1 gears so it really grinds my gears on higher numbers
