… But 1 BUG! Please please please fix this, we just spent $15.00 to support and encourage you to fix bug BUG: Red Crystals have a bug where you can not get more than 2.14b at a time. There is an overflow problem. Please fix so the red crystal is not capped when ascending. The super skill prices are not capped, currently we need 5b red crystals per super skill. We are getting close to getting that first mystic cheese. We have been playing well over 1.5 years. REVIEW: This game is awesome! It has an entire level of deeper game play than any other idle game out there! Perfect for long term gaming. Most idle games have you prestige and start over, a few games have a super prestige to reset your regular prestiges, this game has a level even deeper an ultra prestige that resets your prestige and super prestige. We literally have all this company's games. This game and their "idle mage" are their crown jewels! These games are free, you owe it to yourself to try them.
The pictures make this game look so complicated! But idle quest was a great game and this is too.
We thoroughly enjoyed idle quest and immediately downloaded this after seeing it on the App Store. The concept of the game is fun and interesting and we could see ourselves playing it a lot. There are a few things that really diminish the gameplay though. Decay of the idle progress when you aren't actively tapping is not fun and just makes the game slightly annoying. Also, tapping will almost always move the screen around and it causes a lot of accidental clicks on things. While being able to zoom in and out and move the screen around is interesting, the game would be much better if it was setup in a traditional menu style. Overall a great game, but short lived unless some adjustments are made.
When we started we absolutely loved the game, but when idle power decay was introduced we deleted the game. If this aspect is removed this game will be awesome.
Tap wizards 2 was good so we wanted to try another top cog game. It seems promising, but keeps crashing.
Doubt this is going to be updated, but Id love to keep playing, if only it would stop freezing and requiring us to restart it before we could play it more.
Stop forcing tutorial and let us play the game. Stop forcing us to upgrade idle science. Stop forcing us to buy a skill. Stop forcing us to use back and forward buttons.
Game has a memory leak or something. Cant play for more than a minute without it freezing and stuttering (on an iPhone X).
'Idle' in the title. Mechanic in the game that punishes idleness.
An otherwise interesting game is ruined by the fact that brain decay is set way way too high.
