Steam reviews

What players say

Players mostly recommend this deep idle game for its endless progression layers, but many say it slows badly in the mid to late game and leans on guides.

Many players enjoy the sheer depth of the progression: each prestige layer unlocks new systems and automation, so the numbers keep climbing for hundreds of hours. Reviewers praise how automation removes tedious micromanagement, the clean interface and the helpful Discord guides. Many complaints focus on the mid to late game, where progress slows to a crawl around minerals and runes, and some say following a guide becomes necessary to move forward. Some players dislike the time-flux and offline shop mechanics, and a few describe the late game as a pay-to-skip wall. Several reviewers from the last year say later updates added more grind and that the game feels less rewarding than the early hours. Overall the reviews are positive, but the enthusiasm drops among players who have pushed far into the game.

Who it suits

Suits patient players who enjoy number-growth idle games and long-term progression, especially those who can accept guides and slow stretches.

Who should skip it

Players who want quick, steady rewards or a smooth late game should skip it, and people sensitive to flashing should be cautious.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with a few hundred hours or more are more likely to criticise the slow late game and guide dependence, while newer players mostly praise the early depth and automation.
