Kin and Quarry

Super charming little game. Some great depth for so little narrative. The tech trees are fun, they offer different builds that do feel distinct. The game isn't long and not challenging. The idle part is really more farming resources to make the game easier, but progress is really more geared toward control from you. Each run is only a minute or so and cannot be automated to restart, so very small "i" idler. Either way, this game is worth your time if you love resource hoarding, especially on sale.

Recommend with a massive caveat. The game is broken for lategame if you try going back to the early levels. It doesn't know what blocks are and are not alive and the everything gets stuck either digging ghost blocks or their damage isn't being registered. I'm not sure which. Seems like this is really limited by Godot's gdscript and signal system? Overall it's a good time spender though I would appreciate an auto-start feature. the sequences are only ever 60s long, but you'll want to run them repeatedly. Breakpoints for getting more orbs is pretty high if you want to complete the whole evertree. Most progress is made waiting for the 10x days. For some reason there was a huge dip in progress of the green orbs compared to the rest. tl;dr good game. Would be better without the block destructing bugs and a more frequent 10x event.

This game shouldnt really have the idler tag as it is required to play to progress. It's highly incremental tho with everything leading to numbers going up. Very enjoyable and not too long to finish

neat enough, plays similar to Coal Inc. but with MUCH less scope and replayability in favor of being a lot more casual and slower paced. the Orb (resource to get upgrades) rates have a weird skew at some points where it will dry up and give u 3/run for certain tiers (if even that) when u still need 300 to max out a mid tier upgrade and unlock better ones u can beat the game very comfortably in 5-6 hours and not even be near maxing out all the upgrades, and u technically cant get every upgrade in the game because the mine just stops and becomes an empty pit once u "beat" the game, u can't go any further enjoyable enough though, and the story is just there to exist and has no real significance but it's a shame that the "evil geomancer" has no appearance or any actual impact on anything? not that its gonna keep u hooked but i was expecting some sort of twist we never got tbh

[i]Kin and Quarry[/i] may be the best mining themed incremental game I have come across on steam. A large component of which is the unit management mechanic. Choose your team prior to delving into the mines, use the plunder from your endeavor to upgrade said units and repeat. If you don’t like your team, no problem! You can reorganize the team, reset your upgrades and reallocate your points to better suite you new team! Very little grinding is needed to complete this game as the vast majority of the achievements follow the story progression which is a big plus for a casual gaming experience. 😊

Pretty okay game. solid 5 hours of gameplay. if you want to win you have to control a unit and mix and match with your team of workers. If you're not looking for a long time but a decent time, worth the $10. if you get it on sale, snatch it up and enjoy the little story it gives.
