Worth the investment

Phenomenal game. No unnecessary ads. One purchase for permanent ad block ($2!) and a silky grey atmosphere. Wonderful idle experience overall. Highly recommended.

Honestly, its really fun

I love the incorporation of math in an Idle game. I’ve seen something similar before, but never to such a degree. Bravo

Awesome game but 1 thing...

Awesome game but r9 swapping is a huge pain - auto r9 swapping needs to be an unlocking feature. Make it parameterized - % of last max, amount of time, etc. until next prestige or supremacy.

Best incremental game

The mini games are honestly my favorite, they are so clever. The idle game mechanics of exponential idle are amazing and endless, too.

Don’t waste money

Constantly need to restore purchase, constantly getting hours of offline rewards nerfed due to my purchase not being restored. Very disappointing to have one crucial IAP and it’s barely functional.
