Very fun but also very thoughtfully designed. There is so much information in-game about how to play and what you can/should do next, I never felt like I needed to go to the wiki/reddit to progress efficiently. The time pieces mechanic adds a little bit of strategy to idling, which is more fun than the standard "you gain x% of normal resources while offline". And I appreciate that you often have the choice between strategizing to get past a tough fight, or just grinding more

When you first open this game you don't yet know that you're going to be an addict, this game is really amazing. No amazing graphics or sound effect but in this game, there's always something to do and the retire mechanic is really unique. There's many viable strategies and builds so even seemingly overpowered challenges are doable and even easy if you figure them out. Worth the price for sure.

What idle games should be. Excellent progression curve, easy to understand systems that interact well, and a minimal HUD that doesn't set the phone on fire. I thoroughly enjoyed this game and spent about a month off-and-on 100%ing it. Totally worth the money. I will definitely buy the sequel.
