Gameplay in this title is characterized by a slow progression system that can feel tedious due to obfuscated reset mechanics and minimal returns on investment, leading to repetitive experiences. While it offers enjoyable strategic elements and innovative mechanics for fans of idle games, many players express frustration with the pacing and the frequent resets that nullify progress. Overall, it appeals to those who appreciate deep prestige mechanics but may not satisfy players seeking more immediate gratification.
- “If you like the basic 'numbers go up' sort of game with a deep prestige mechanic, check this out.”
- “Multiple resources to manage, choices in progression, and overall enjoyable gameplay.”
- “A solid idle game that implements some innovative mechanics, differentiating itself from others.”
- “The first few hours are alright, but the reset mechanics are too obfuscated, and the scaling is too slow.”
- “Choose to prioritize food, and you'll be able to make steps more frequently, but with such a smaller return on investment that it will still be hours between meaningful additions of mechanics/systems. Worse still, all progress is reset while only a small portion of it is upgraded, adding tons of padding between runs that force you to reach the same minor goals over and over again in a way that leaves even tremendous increases feeling like a detriment.”
- “By the time you get to the first major reset, you'll probably just be frustrated by this mechanic.”
