| 2024-11-17 |  | | Glacially slow progress, but I still played for weeks. After getting to chapter 5, the new update will no longer let me play all the chapters I've unlocked? No thanks. |
| 2024-10-08 |  | | Really cool idea, chapter 1 was fun, but chapter 2 is so mind-numbingly slow I would consider forcing someone to play it torture. I'm out of upgrades to buy and at my current rate it'll be over 300,000 years before I finish the level, and that's not a joke or an exaggeration. |
| 2024-08-20 |  | | slower pace but clearly defined goals make this a fun one. |
| 2024-08-17 |  | | I was enjoying this game for the first day or two. I like the simplicity, reminiscent of more successful games such as "Universal Paperclips" and "A Dark Room." Unfortunately this game lacks the character and satisfying progression of the aforementioned. And seems to hold progression firmly behind its back while it beckons the player for microtransactions and sleezy currency conversions. |
| 2024-08-15 |  | | Great interface, simple but fun incremental gameplay. WAY too grindy. Days of virtually no progress, even early game (Chapters 1&2). "Paid" progress boosts non-obvious and seemed too little reward so no incentive to purchase. Has potential but needs work |
| 2024-08-11 |  | | Great Idle game. Just one thing, in chapter 5 the Planning upgrade should say Generator Upgrades, non Generator |
| 2024-07-06 |  | | Starts out decent, but unfortunately becomes incredibly slow and tedious quite quickly. I'm stuck at the end of chapter 2 with nothing to do, even with additional completions of chapter 1. Completions need to add more speed (maybe multiplicative instead of additive), or more upgrades need to be available. |
| 2024-06-20 |  | | I will never understand idle developers obsession with the grind. End of chapter one has a pointless time wall, and the beginning of chapter two is just an unfun grind. It could be decent otherwise. |
| 2023-10-15 |  | | I love incremental games and this one does not disappoint. I just completed chapter 1 after 4 or 5 days of casual play. So far it has been fun. I recommend this game if you are a fan of the longer play through incremental games. |
| 2023-08-02 |  | | I wish the ad boost feature worked with or without ads. But besides that, it's a really good and simple yet complex idle incremental game. Im enjoying it. 5 star of that bug gets fixed. |
