About
Idle Colony is a game about little creatures and big numbers that will make your dopamine go up and your worries go down.
Combine two fruits of the same tier into the next one. 1$, 2$, 4$, 8$... This process generates an exponential amount of money as you make your way up to bigger fruits.
Unlock buildings to uncover always more options to leverage your income. As cash comes in, it goes out, to come back even faster! Improve every aspect of your economy to make the best out of it.
You will start with a sapling that you'll have to manually water and harvest, but soon enough you'll be able to recruit thousands of naïve creatures to assist you in your endeavor. They collect, fertilize, chop down, plant trees, create machines... and they love it!
Now that you've got a wok full of delicious fruits and an army of colonists dedicated to you, it is time to perform the ritual... Sacrifice your colony to access powerful technologies and go even further next time!

Through your progress, you'll earn two unique currencies to spend with care. Find the best strategies by carefully picking your technologies and special upgrades. Your choices will make the difference between millions and quintillions.

Took forever getting to the last tier The upgrades feel a bit underwhelming
Pretty boring overall. The achievements were a huge, awful, boring grind. I just really can't recommend it.

[h1] Why you should or should not play Idle Colony [/h1] [b] What is Idle Colony? [/b] Idle Colony is exactly how it sounds, a game where you can sit back, relax, and watch as your little workers gather the fruits of trees. [b] Quick Pros [/b] ✔ Satisfying progression system ✔ Relaxing game play ✔ Runs well on lower-end PCs ✔ Strong visual style [b] Quick Cons [/b] ✘ Repetitive game play loop ✘ Mechanics become stale over time [b] Initial Thoughts: [/b] -"I like my little dudes. They are so smol." -"Oooo bashing the moles is so satisfying." -"I can sacrifice them.... ooooooooooooo this is great." [b] Beginner Player Friendly? [/b] I would say this game is beginner player friendly. The controls are very simple and this game is a point and click style game. There is also a tutorial that helps explain the basics of the game. Once you get through that tutorial there isn't much that is hard to understand. [b] Game Play: [/b] The goal of this game is simple, you are farming fruits with your small colony. Cook these fruits to make money so you can upgrade, sacrifice and upgrade some more to make even more money. [b] Graphics: [/b] The graphics are super simple and friendly on the eyes. I would say this game would be able to run on a lower end computer with no issues. [b] Community: [/b] I have not interacted much with the community themselves, the way I found this game is by Gray Still Plays playing it on their YouTube channel. I have seen quite a few guides on how to play, and everyone seems super open to answering questions if need be. [b] How long can you play? [/b] In this game its easy to play for hours with no stopping. I have already spent 4 hours in the game and have yet to complete it. [b] My Opinion: [/b] In my opinion, if you just want something where you can turn your brain off and not think while maybe watching a bit of YouTube you may want to try out this game. I really enjoy playing this while watching mindless body-cam footage. [b] Overall Review [/b] ★ 7/10 - An enjoyable fruit farming idle game. ✘ [b] Active Online Multiplayer [/b] [i] (meaning people will interact with you in game) [/i] ✔ [b] Family Friendly [/b] [i] (meaning friendly to all ages) [/i] ✔ [b] Solo Playability [/b] [i] (meaning you can play by yourself if preferred) [/i] ✘ [b] Cross Compatibility [/b] [i] (meaning you can play with friends through other consoles.) [/i] ✘ [b] In-App Purchases [/b] [i] (meaning you can buy things after buying the game i.e DLC's) [/i] ✘ [b] Controller Compatible [/b] [i] (meaning you can play this game with a controller) [/i] Enjoyed this review?

Requires too much interaction to work as a background idle game, but is too inert and simple to make actively playing it compelling. There aren't many unlocks so instead the game is built around beating the game over and over with a different unlock toggled each time.

Fun idle game
addictive
I like playing these kinds of games from time to time, but this game feels odd to me. It doesn't have many upgrades, it's more built around using different sets to grind through the game. I played once through the game to the end while catching up on some videos and news. It was not engaging enough to play, but at the same time, it felt off to me; it needed too much attention to be really an idle game. I can't really explain it better than that the game feels off for me for an idle game.
A fun idle game with a limited scope. It has no microtransactions and your decisions and strategy matter. It is well worth a playthrough.
