Very simple game as of the moment, but a nice and relaxing kind of idle game. Quite a bit different from many of the other idle games I've played, and also different from the other idle city builders. Most stuff in the game is progressed via gold, which is made various ways in-game. Very light on content, but this is only version 0.2 and the game is less than $3 on sale. Looking forward to more content and what's to come. I've had a great time so far and I plan on maxing everything in the game that is available at the moment.
Fun relaxing game about gathering, making and selling stuff. Dev listens to feedback 👍
I'll recommend since you'll get a few hours of relaxing time within the game. However, it's heavily flawed. I unlocked everything already with not much else to do. I only have the map 25% explored and I don't see the incentive to explore the rest. Scouting feels VERY slow! Even when increasing adventures scouting skill to max, it's still super slow compared to how fast you progress through the game. It would be nice if we could have more than 3 adventurers to make the speed of the game work with exploration. Dungeons are pretty neat. Makes it worth not producing certain materials since you'll loot most decent mats from dungeons. I don't fully understand workforce. Is it implemented? Buildings are somewhat quick to build no matter the "workforce" required. There's no population of people either and you're limited to 40 buildings, and with how big the map is, that seems highly redundant. As I mentioned it's a chill time-wasting experience for a few hours, but that's about it. Other than that, not much content.
Pros: - Easy to learn and fun to play - Active Dev who takes feedback and bug reports seriously - You get to craft and sell stuff - Good music to vibe to - Dev just put out two awesome patches fixing bugs and adding a TON of content - Can pick up and put down easily ANYWHERE because it works great on the Steam Deck - Interesting mechanics like the mayor buffs and hero skills - A new play through feels fresh every time due to everything being randomly generated, from the maps, to the heroes. Cons: - Still being worked on and fleshed out and that's...it, really. If you can even consider "still being worked on" a con. Like I said, the Dev is very active and will take your feedback seriously! I highly recommend this game to anyone who like an idle game that requires you to give a little more attention to, and it's well worth the price. Thank you, Eternal for making this game!
I can't say if it is unfinished or unclear on purpose. I run out of money withing minutes and when I'm back on the main menu I cannot click on anything.
I would definitely not call this an amazing game- in fact, it is very far from amazing. What I would call it, however, is an AMAZING DEAL. This is a solid, solid game with an amount of content that can pass for a released game without anyone batting an eye. I am rooting so hard for this developer because this game is so underappreciated.
Dev is responsive to feedback and quickly fixes bugs.
I found this game on r/indiegames. Let alone the dev is awesome and open to ideas from the community, they created a great simple game that has a lot to offer. This has the potential to be incredible and I'm excited to see where it goes.
right now i dont really know. the games doesnt have a tutorial and so far im winging it and only survive for like 20 minutes then im back at the main menu.....so idk
Solid little game here. It's got elements of idle to it, as in you can step away and just let it run. Good game to play when you're sporadically busy. Upgrade a few things and minimize it.
