Ratings and reviews

What an incredibly addictive game! I couldn't put this down for a few weeks until I cleared it. It's a sort of idle/active hybrid, where you watch numbers go up, but progress does come quickly enough that you can play actively. The gameplay loop is delicious, and the most strategy-focused idle-like I've played ever. Beating harder bosses balances gearing up and smart tactics. Combat can be active or passive depending on how you set up. Story is really good. A lot of thought went into it.

1. Play this game if you like incremental games, 2. The UI really needs some love. Its usable, but if you could switch between various tabs and lists easier it would cut out a lot of little frustrations. Also, I would sacrifice an elder god to be able to tie auto-purchases to an editable number. Some way to be able to press a button and make 10 sprouts and 7 streamers.

This game ruins your experience with other games. After beating Magic Research 2, other incremental games feel clunky and boring. This game is a perfect Skinner Box. I would play it in the evening, then set up as much automation as I could each night, wake up and just buzz with excitement at seeing what I unlocked. I love how you beat storylines and they don't just give you a small boost, they open up entire new avenues of min/maxing. Synchro is awesome, item combining is great. Thanks!
