It is a very good idler, with a metric ton of content - for free. If you enjoy the genre, there is absolutely no argument why you shouldn't play it.

But while the game isn't technically a clicker in the original sense, as you don't have a cookie to click to accelerate your progress, the game is pretty involved and will take a good while to actually get to a point where you can really idle.

As I enjoy progress more than the grind, I have a few recommendations if you have the same stance:

• The dev doesn't mind hacking and cheating, his only request is to turn off Highscore submit in the settings
  
• It is fairly easy to do so
  
• Even if you do, you can't really "break" it, unless you try really hard to skip all progression - but due to the exponential nature even that would take you a while
  
• Be aware that there are no mistakes, and anything you do will add to your progression
  
• So don't stress over "bad" decisions, they will be irrelevant 10h later
  
• Read the "WTF do I do?" on new things
  
• Read the wiki if stuff is still unclear, or just google what other people are doing
  
• If you are savvy enough, make an Excel sheet that entails your own strategy, that will make decision making a lot easier and more "grounded"
  
• Ignore the sheet half the time, because you'd rather do something else when you have a butload of ressources anyway kek

So what about hacking/cheating?

• There are a lot of QoL features tied to progression and (optionally) money
  
• Play the game vanilla for a good while, until you feel settled in and understand the core mechanics and how you want to allocate resources and make decisions
  
• Turn off Highscore Submit
  
• Use CheatEngine to give yourself a ton of AP, and buy non-intrusive QoL
  
• Google NGU Injector: It will/can automate a lot of repetetive tasks
  
• Buy more stuff on a need basis, without breaking the balance with progression
  
• Buy at least the 12$ pack from the sellout shop to reward the dev

Even with all that said and done, the game is still fun, and you will still encounter one wall after another. But it can shorten grindy periods of days into hours,

So yeah, certainly play it.

eh its pretty decent

4G is the best developer of all time.

I have sunk so much of my time into this IDLE game to see the NGU. The NGU force fed me dopamine.

The beginning of the game is entertaining enough but by 2 months or so it slows down to such a degree that it you may as well not try, at least not legit. Lots of important features hardly require any human input, and some get automated entirely, removing even more nuance from a game that desperately needs it. The "story" gets clearly weaker over time (even though it was barely funny in the first place) up until the end when dev realized he needed a finale. The strongest aspect of the game is the art and combat, though even the fighting system is undermined by the fact that one day you won't stand a pickle's chance in hell of defeating a boss, and the next you'll steamroll it without any strategy. If you're the kind of player that must finish what they started like I foolishly was, I recommend turning away from this soul sink. If you're able to quit once it gets too uninteresting, feel free to run the first few months.

Hello, guys... I'm new on Steam, could you help me to get my first award ever, please? :) 💚

its alr

This has to be the most tedious idler I've ever played.
I wasted my time micromanaging resources to chase more and more expensive and time consuming upgrades that ended in quickly diminishing returns. The worst part is that almost all upgrades reset on rebirth and it makes the whole thing feel like a complete waste of time, in a bad way considering this is an "idle" game.
Energy feels extremely stingy to the point where investing in some upgrades didn't feel worth the eternity it would take, or slowing everything else down to go all in on them. Especially not when all progress would be lost at the next rebirth anyway.

If you want something to micromanage constantly, then feel free to give it a shot. Number go up enjoyers can skip it and never take a second look.
