Idle Game Simulator

i love dudes

Im thankful for this game. Pressing buttons to play games is to stressful.

THAT is REALLY an IDLE game! The purest and truest form of IDLE! In this 'game' you just - like the core thought of idle - are idle... 100%... why? because you do (and also can't do anything) nothing. You just let the 'game' run and wait for your achievements or watch the numbers grow.... so nice idea to honor and easy 100% achievements and a perfect game! nice!

There are quite a few weird idle games out there, but this is either the weirdest or most normal, I'm not sure which. I've played a lot of idle games, and spend way too much time digging around on Steam, on 50gameslike, asking LLMs, to try to find other idle games that meet my criteria. Criteria like: game must be free (or maybe I can buy it for less than $1), game must have achievements. Game's achievements must be functional and achievable in a reasonable time-frame (say, 1000 hours or less). Sadly, many games can't even meet these basic requirements. Worse, there are games where I thought I did my research, only to play the game and find out some achievement is broken so I'll never get 100%, or the dev adds 500 new achievements that would literally take years of grinding to get (looking at you, Galaxy Idle Clicker!). So, I stumbled upon Idle Game Simulator. It actually meets all my requirements (positive). But, it's kind of a weird deconstruction of idle games. I mean, it's definitely "idle". Start the game, no graphics at all, just a bit of text indicating how much money and types of people you've accrued, and how many prestiges I think. There's nothing to click on, it's truly "idle". Wait about 10 hours. You now have all the achievements. Unlike Idle Wizard, no ridiculously Byzantine set of instructions on how to succeed using a given character (which don't work for you, and someone else's equally long set of instructions for the same character don't work either). Unlike Antimatter Dimensions, no missable achievements that are critical to finishing the game. Unlike Idle Monkeylogy, no last achievement which refuses to fire. So, either this is the ideal idle game, or it's making fun of all the other idle games. Maybe both?

This game has no buttons, no rewards, no configuration... It was a good start to a game, but then they gave up.
