Please address this issue and I will remove this one star rating. ### 2/5 — Bug *2025-08-17, version 1.2.2* Quest = earn 201 flasks. I prestiged at 201 flasks. Quest tracker showed 201/201 flasks earned but didn’t let me claim reward :(. ### 3/5 — Similar *2025-11-21, version 1.3.0* Very reminiscent of Scrap Clicker. Any relation? ### 3/5 — Prestige tree and anti-matter need more *2025-11-11, version 1.2.2* You can complete the prestige tree only about 50% of the way through progression. It needs more upgrades into the end game, especially for buffing anti-matter generation. Anti-matter has gotten to the point where I get about 540k per merge on average but need over 200 million to get any of the upgrades, not to mention the one that cost nearly 5 billion. The cost of the anti matter upgrade that increases chance to double anti matter on merge has hit over 500 million, so I can’t really buff gain that way, which means the only way for me to increase gain is by 13.5 per merge, which is piddly and effectively useless. Even particles have hit a wall. The best increase I can hope for currently when prestiging is about a 10x increase which gets me maybe 1 or 2 elements higher before needing to reset again for less of an increase, and that includes multiple days of offline progress and checking back briefly to get it. I’m at element 105 as my highest right now, and it feels like it will still take me over a month to get to 118, when it only took me a week and a half to hit the start of the wall at about element 95 and another week and a half to get to the point I’m at now. The game was fun until I hit this wall though. It just needs better balancing for this part of the game. ### 3/5 — Good start *2025-06-03, version 1.1.0* Progression fizzles out fast, basically an ad-every-10-minutes loop after a couple days of playing ### 4/5 — Fun but *2025-07-21, version 1.2.2* Please add a confirmation menu for cancelling quests. Just lost out on a ton of progress as a result. ### 4/5 — Rate elemental merge *2025-07-14, version 1.2.2* Is this based off of the periodic table and great game though ### 4/5 — A decent independent game *2025-07-08, version 1.2.2* Please disregard my previous comments about the charge. Several items were bundled into a single charge from the AppStore and I mistook the total for what this app charged for the ad free version. This game is a decent small indecent game. It had room for improvement but appears to be a labor of love. ### 4/5 — Pretty decent idle game *2025-05-27, version 1.1.0* This game is fun and has a good, albeit simple gameplay loop. There are a few quality of life features missing from the game like a button to quickly buy upgrades (i.e. the Spawn Higher upgrade eventually has 400 levels you can buy, all of which can reset when you prestige so you are manually clicked 400 times to get the upgrades). That becomes tedious. The game really boils down to number go up, which is simple but also really fun to see your progress after each prestige get faster and faster. Good for a few days of fun! ### 5/5 — Feels retro in a good way *2025-10-30, version 1.2.2* Perfect balance of chill and grind. Super addictive progression, and the visuals are crisp and satisfying ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very fun game but… *2025-06-12, version 1.1.0* I love games that are like this. I love the grind aspect. I understand you want to make the game fun and maybe make a little money on the side but you don’t need to have the game p2w especially if there is going to be a leaderboard in the future. It will deter new players. Make it a one time purchase for the boosts and have more variety for the ad boosts. Other than that, it’s a well made game. Reminds me of scrap clicker 2 which is one of my favorites. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for future updates! ### 5/5 — Life saver *2025-05-19, version 1.1.0* This game saved my life ### 5/5 — Nice 🤝 *2025-05-16, version 1.1.0* Great game to pass the time while commuting to my work. Can recommend it! ### 5/5 — Very cool *2025-03-25, version 1.0.1* So fun and addicting, I have already spent hours grinding lol ### 5/5 — Very fun! *2025-03-24, version 1.0.1* Merging is so relaxing, and I get to learn about the periodic table at the same time! Great game ### 5/5 — Great idle game *2025-03-19, version 1.0.1* Reminds me of a lot of other idle games I enjoy playing, but also has an unique idea which makes gameplay feel fresh. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
