Making a chest harder to open kills the potential of getting materials quickly. So almost useless 2. Prestige is entirely based on luck and takes wayyy too long to achieve for almost no reward. I think this game needs a balancing update. A prestige should provide a clear and obvious benefit for idle incremental games to feel accomplishing. ### 3/5 — Chest Power *2026-02-27, version 0.5.8* This game is more like 3.5 and mostly because of one thing. Improving the chest feels like more punishment than a benefit as it now takes so much longer to open it. It could be solved by you being able to toggle the chests power. Like if you could activate or deactivate the power up or something. Otherwise it’s so easy to get stuck at a point where it takes minutes to just open one chest and it’s no longer fun… ### 4/5 — acolytes not working *2026-01-31, version 0.5.6* the acolytes not working correctly after buying it ### 3/5 — Acolytes not attacking *2026-01-31, version 0.5.6* Loving the game guys, but since the updates yesterday my acolytes no longer hit chests. They have the movement but deal 0 damage so I can no longer be idle as the game is meant to be.... Also just noticed that I can't even get offline rewards due to my acolytes being able to attack aswell please get this fixed guy as I'm really enjoying the game ### 3/5 — Gut aber bugt bei mir *2025-12-11, version 0.5.2* Ich habe gestern sehr viel Fortschritt gemacht und heute geh ich wieder rein und alles weg bin wieder ganz am Anfang ### 4/5 — J’aime bien le jeux mais… *2025-12-10, version 0.5.1* La dernière mise à jours viens de reset absolument tout j’avais tout améliorer au maximum même si ça me dérange pas peut être que c’était pas prévu alors je préviens sinon 5 étoile ce jeux est agréable et la D.A une valeur sûre ### 3/5 — Eigentlich gut, *2025-12-10, version 0.5.1* Aber seit den letzten 2 Updates, muss man, nach einem Neustart der App, immer wieder von vorn anfangen, das heist, es wird kein Spielstand mehr gespeichert ### 5/5 — 다 날라갔네요. *2025-12-10, version 0.5.1* 업데이트 하고 다시 재밌게 하고 있는데 이번 업데이트로 데이터 다 날아감 이제 포탈열라고 하고 있는데 ### 5/5 — Waiting for update *2025-12-09, version 0.5.0* Already beat it was fun and took like 4-5h of gameplay would be nice to have an update. ### 3/5 — Gold Chest Not Working *2025-12-09, version 0.5.0* any time i get a gold chest it doesn't show to unlock, so i can't claim the quests ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-11-14, version 0.4.7* I love a good idle clicker and this game is no different. It may be shorter than other similar games, but it’s still updating and I cannot wait to see where this game goes !!! ### 4/5 — Great bathroom game *2025-11-03, version 0.4.7* Not much too it really, but it’s enjoyable. Not enough content tho but it is a free game so can’t complain too much for what it is because it is fun too ### 5/5 — Jeu très intéressent ! *2025-10-31, version 0.4.7* Jeu excellent pour l’instant, j’te de voir les prochains ajouts !! ### 5/5 — 10 *2025-10-27, version 0.4.7* il gioco é veramente ben strutturato e i miglioramenti seguono l’andamento del gioco, l’ho trovato molto piacevole ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — magic chest gone *2026-03-26, version 0.5.8* the last update removed magic chests from the game and those were the best ones so they just made the game worse for no reason ### 1/5 — Boring *2025-11-02, version 0.4.7* Why click endlessly on a chest… ### 1/5 — Мало игры *2025-08-22, version 0.4.7* Прошел за неделю ### 1/5 — Idle chest *2025-08-07, version 0.4.7* Kann den skill tree nicht benutzen hab es deswegen danach deinstalliert ### 1/5 — Skill tree doesn’t work? *2025-07-15, version 0.4.6* Less than 30 minutes into the game I unlocked the “skill tree” only downside is I can’t use the skill token. Every time I try and unlock the first skill node it just closes the menu doesn’t use the token or unlock anything. It’s like I just click off of the option ### 1/5 — Progress loss issues *2025-05-04, version 0.4.2* A few times now I’ve lost progress so I’m just giving up at this point, what a joke. ### 1/5 — Keeps rolling back *2025-05-04, version 0.4.2* Initially a fun game, but it keeps rolling my back to where I was a few days ago. Very frustrating, and not worth playing in this state ### 1/5 — Progress reverts *2025-05-03, version 0.4.2* When you exit out of the game, sometimes the progress you made reverts to an earlier state. Not very idle of a game ### 2/5 — BUG *2026-04-11, version 0.5.12* After many months of the game, there was an error, no quests appear, I can't progress and there is no way to reset the progress without complete data loss. ### 2/5 — Tap game, not an idle game *2025-10-06, version 0.4.7* If you can't even start the game without spamming tap 1000 times, it's not an idke game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Lovely little game *2026-05-25, version 0.5.12* I really enjoyed this. No forced ads (wonderful decision), so I’m naturally drawn to watching the ones that give me a boost when they appear. The ad free purchase option is also 3.99, which I happily paid for once I realised I enjoyed the game. Relaxed gameplay. No need to insane levels of screen tapping once you unlock your acolyte helpers. Love it. Nice work. ### 5/5 — Brill game *2026-04-02, version 0.5.8* Such a brilliant game and a good boredom buster cant fault it only issue I have atm is I’ve maxed everything out and cannot figure how to build the portal? ### 5/5 — MORE MP *2026-02-25, version 0.5.8* Please bro you cant only give 40 or at least make the prices cheaper because its so insanely expensive and u only get 40 HELP ME BRUDDA ### 5/5 — There’s no reason for it to be so fun *2026-02-02, version 0.5.6* I can’t stop myself from coming back to this game over and over again. The game being actively updated so frequently is amazing. There was a moment a few days ago I was annoyed that the prestige currency scaled so harshly only to check the App Store and realise an update was put out an hour ago that fixed that exact problem. Great game will continue to play. ### 5/5 — My robots are not doing any damage *2026-02-01, version 0.5.6* Game is super fun, but recently my robots have been doing zero damage to the chest. ### 5/5 — the luck *2026-01-27, version 0.5.4* The 'Find a rare equipment' quest cannot be completed. Please fix this issue. ### 5/5 — Beautifully simple game. *2025-12-31, version 0.5.3* Never been a huge fan of “Idle” games but this one is far from the norm. Real effort put into the art, gameplay, progression, etc. highly highly recommend joining the discord as well as they are constantly adding updates and new info on there. Love the game guys keep up the good work the game can only get better ### 5/5 — Amazing idle game but i have one suggestion *2025-12-11, version 0.5.2* Hi! Your game is so addicted and is my 1st favorite idle game! And it is almost perfect but i have a suggestion if that’s ok! The suggestion is that in one of your future updates you add achievements like how some other idle games have! It would make it so much fun and make people wanna 100% your game like me!! ### 5/5 — Etretenido *2025-12-11, version 0.5.2* Es un buen juego, muy entretenido para pasar el aburrimiento ### 5/5 — Update Reset All Progress *2025-12-10, version 0.5.1* It’s an ok clicker game, I don’t have an issue with the game itself my only problem is that when the game updated it reset all my progress that I had made. It’s not the end of the world I just want to put it out there so the devs are aware and can look into it so it dose not happen to others.
