About this game

Inspired by RuneScape, Melvor Idle takes the core of what makes an adventure game so addictive and strips it down to its purest form!

Master Melvor’s many RuneScape-style skills with just a click or a tap. Melvor Idle is a feature-rich, idle/incremental game combining a distinctly familiar feel with a fresh gameplay experience. Maxing 20+ skills has never been more zen. Whether you’re a RuneScape newbie, a hardened veteran, or simply someone looking for a deep but accessible adventure that easily fits around a busy lifestyle, Melvor is an addictive idle experience unlike any other.

Every skill in this game serves a purpose, interacting with the others in interesting ways. This means all the hard work you put into one skill will in turn benefit others. What strategy will you conjure to achieve maximum skillage?

It doesn’t just end with Woodcutting, Smithing, Cooking and Farming either – take your finely honed tapping abilities into battle and face off against 100+ monsters using your Melee, Ranged and Magic skills. Conquering brutal dungeons and toppling boisterous bosses has never been quite like this before…

Melvor is a RuneScape-inspired experience suitable for veterans and newcomers alike. It features an in-depth and endless Combat system featuring 8 dedicated Skills, countless dungeons, bosses to vanquish and lore to unearth. Get stuck into many deep yet accessible systems featuring 15 non-Combat Skills to train, all with individual mechanics and interactions. A fully featured and interactive Bank/Inventory system allows you to keep track of over 1,100 items. Plus, enjoy 40+ decidedly cute Pets to collect, and thanks to its regular updates, the adventure continues to grow all the time! Melvor boasts cloud saving functionality that’s compatible across all platforms.

This game requires an internet connection to play.

Ratings and reviews

For an idle game, this game is a huge crutch for those like me who miss RS but don't have the time to invest into it. It is lax while skilling but also offers a more immersive gameplay as you progress through dungeons and high-tier mobs. So far I have found it to be a very satisfying experience with much more to discover. Well worth the small price for the full version and expansion alike. Highly recommended.

It's a fun idle-style game, but it has some serious optimization issues. It can become nearly unplayable when it starts freezing, and there's no option to disable the progress pop-ups that seem to be the worst offender for outright freezing the game. Getting summoner marks is also a painful experience- there's a pop-up for every single mark you get, even if there are a dozen of the same kind, and they all take several seconds to load.

I'm playing the demo currently, which has such a large amount of content, it is hilarious to call it a demo. Of all the idle games I've played (on mobile), i like this one the best. No microtransactions or ads, and satisfying standard idle game gameplay. There is a surprising amount of depth as well. The art is charming and simplistic. My only complaint is that navigating between skills is kind of a pain. Don't see how it could be fixed, though, personally.
