Little Incrementisle

Little Incrementisles starts out fresh and fun. You have buildings, upgrades, resources, etc. The first prestige is also reasonably fun. However, the issue that I had with this game is that it walks backwards. The further you progress, the more tedious the game becomes... even with existing things. Incremental games are supposed to make the early game easier and easier as you prestige and progress. Additionally, there were insanely tedious minigames to play, which just absolutely killed my drive whatsoever. This game also gets more and more active as you progress, which is also annoying when I like the feeling of more automation. Ultimately, this is a cool concept with a great start that was completely misexecuted later on.

This game is an exercise in tedium and annoyance. It's like trying to play a game on a dodgy website that just spawns popups randomly. Also the devs haven't bothered translating the game fully, it's still playable but again just adds a little annoyance.

An incrimental that punishes you for not knowing whats coming - Between the raids, and getting softlocked on the winter island, the game would be much less frustrating if it warned you [b][i]before[/i][/b] new mechanics penalise you, rather than after. Sure you can restart the island with your new info - or players can go to one of the many other incrimentals, that are designed to be rewarding rather than a surprise pitfall. There is a joy to discovering new systems naturally, and learning the hard way through failure. The incrimental genre tends not to be where people look for that though.

Nice asthetics and looks. But has a innate combat mechanic that spawns a raid every X minutes. I had to frantically watch my ressources and try getting enough soldiers recruited to counter the [u]increasing[/u] raid scale or lose 30% of total ressources per raid. That pretty much killed my interest in this game.

Sorry, but i treated this like an idler. And so, i felt punished every time a level became a clicker or a click-and-drag.

Little Incrementisle starts off as a promising, neat little incremental colony builder. However, the balancing takes a massive nosedive once you hit the first snowy island. The core issue is that the game hits you with winter mechanics and heavy combat raids simultaneously without warning. Because the game doesn't hint at what's coming on the next island, it is incredibly easy to spend your permanent Heritage tree (science tree) points on upgrades suited for the early game, leaving you completely unequipped for the sudden difficulty spike. Once you are locked in with the wrong choices, the mission becomes an exercise in futility. The game creates a punishing, inescapable cycle where you are trapped with a permanent, unchangeable Heritage tree while concurrent winter starvation and scaling raids completely stall your economy and render your military useless. If you get stuck here, your only option to progress is to completely erase your journey and restart from the very first mission just to pre-build specifically for this winter spike. After 6 or 7 restarts, the game stops being a fun puzzle and becomes a tedious chore. It is a cool concept initially, but it fundamentally fails to respect the player's time. Skip this one, there are plenty of other great incremental and strategy games out there that won't force you into a soft-locked loop.

Ni plus ni moins que ce qui a été promis en live. QQ heures de gameplay sympa pour un prix... défiant toute concurrence !
