It’s just gonna make you mad

Seriously, who’s idea was this? The random upgrade system is laughably bad game design. The math this game is working with already makes it a punishing incremental game, but that might be forgivable IF the progression was actually under my control as the player. But it’s not. For anyone who has not played this game, basically, the only meaningful way you can upgrade your various colors is by a prestige mechanic, which grants you a random upgrade to one of three aspects of your 9 colors. But the upgrade that you get is completely random. The problem with this is, there are NUMEROUS points in your playthrough where you need ONE SPECIFIC upgrade to progress in the game. But you can’t just get it. Nooooo, you have to ROLL THE DICE on a ONE IN 27 CHANCE TO ACTUALLY GET THE UPGRADE THAT YOU NEED TO PROGRESS THE VIDEO GAME, LEAVING YOU TO BASICALLY JUST PRESTIGE OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN NOT PROGRESSING UNTIL THE GAME DECIDES “you can progress now 😊” look, games are subjective and if you’re into cock and ball torture then maybe you’ll love this. But it’s not for me.

Solid game, but late game drags on

The UI is very tastefully done and the game is simple but enjoyable. Early game moves by very fast and you can make it seemingly through most of the way through the game in just a few hours. My one complaint however is that the pacing toward the late game begins to drag on very slowly. Meaningful upgrades are few and far between and it becomes progressively more frustrating to rack up a high prestige boost several times just to have it all go to an upgrade that’s useless for you at your level.

I believe the game would be better overall if it started somewhat slower and the pacing was more even throughout the game.

Progress Wall

Once you’re at the point of “Finish the Game” being your last unlock you get stuck in a loop of resetting for 5m prestige over and over and you’re at the mercy of RNG to put you over the horizon for progression on maxing each color. The progress curve feels like it’s moving really nicely up to that point and then you’re suddenly stuck on each reset feeling like it does nothing over and over. I’m not sure if it’s just that I’m getting unlucky with the prestige allotment or what but it’s killing my motivation to want to keep progressing toward game completion.

boring unintuitive game

meh

Enraging, a joke

The rng is designed to punish idle players.

Trash

It’s trash. There’s a beep everytime you touch the screen and you can’t turn it off so it’s loud af everytime. Plus the prestige gameplay is stupid and nearly adds any numbers to anything so you just button mashing until the beeping drives you insane.

Not idle..

This game is cool, but it stops when you close it? Why would it do that? Really annoying

stupid

I have genuinely been on world 6 for over a year bro that should not be normal for an idle game. the whole point of an idle game is that you earn money while offline but you don’t in this, you can’t even just have the game running in the background, you have to be in the app and you have to tap your phone every now and then so it doesn’t turn off in order to earn money. i know the premise is that the things your prestige points go to are completely random but it just feels so limiting and unfun. my prestige points keep going towards speed on ones that already have max speed and lowering price on things im able to buy all upgrades of rendering them useless. there’s also these random perks/additions they add after you complete a world that can genuinely make it almost impossible to complete a world and that’s the situation im in right now.

good almost great

i like this one but thought it was weird your prestige can go into speed and be useless once its maxed, and it seems to get maxed very easily unless im missing something

No ads, Just fun

Think ‘adventure capitalist’ but at the time of review completely free with no in game shop.

No ‘remove ads’
No 2x increases
A single in game purchase that allows you to ‘cheat’.

This in my opinion ruins the fun. It would be as if you just got a single player story game and paid 99 cents to skip the story.

I highly recommend this game if you love idle games and want to pass some time!

Update: 1 year later.
I’ve finally become game god after casually learning how the games interior works.

The RNG can be pretty awful. But this game doesn’t have ads or bloat. It’s a simple idle game and it did a damn good job at it.

Tip:

Waiting 5+ minutes for idle while only having one color (red usually) will only prestige that color. Use this to a benefit before unlocking more

You get two ‘free choice’ resources (the ability to choose what color and stat to prestige) every time you make it to the first ‘calculation’.

I recommend idle resets on red before progressing, reset on world 1 for the +10 POW over and over again (after world one it only goes up by .02 so world 2 = .12 POW) save up on the ‘free choice’ resource (they carry over) before attempting world 2-7.

Thank you dev for a year of casual entertainment. Would love another.

Decent, enraging

This game is great, except for when the “random” prestige continues to go towards the cost of line that has already been fully unlocked. Came back to the game after a day, got a 4 times bonus, reset, and the entire bonus went to an utterly useless prestige spot. Can anything be done about this because it makes me want to rage quit

Impossible to progress past a certain point

I enjoy this game, but once you get to a certain point, it simply takes forever to progress any farther, more like impossible. I often delete and redownload just to play until I can’t anymore, but it would be nice to be able to realistically finish the whole thing

lol rng

"fair random rng" is a stretch. it clearly is not random and will punish you. decent game otherwise, but the rng is fake

In desperate need of balancing

The game is incredibly repetitive. You spend a few seconds getting to a prestige and then get frustrated when it upgrades cost in your first colour, doing nothing. Then repeat. Endlessly.

I can currently get to "6. Calculation", but it takes a minute, so it tends to be more worthwhile to spam out the 1M prestige at "5. Calculation". The scale is just way off at this point as well. I would probably need to spend a day spamming out prestiges to start getting step 6 fast enough to make it worth it.

With random upgrades, this game is incredibly painful. You have a 1 in 27 chance to get any specific upgrade, and you will soon get to a point where cost upgrades in the earlier colours do nothing, making it all the more painful.

I cannot say for certain as I have not purchased it, but my guess is that this is intentional design to pressure players to purchase the cheat, which will get you past hurdles.

Fun but has an issue

When I’m playing it’s pretty fun, but I’ve now rage quit to an idle game for the first time for getting the 9k prestige with a 10x idle modifier on speed. Twice. Please make a cap to how high speed can be added if you make a revamped version of this game. It gets useless at like 100-300. There may be something I’m missing, but it’s not speeding up past the point it just ticks every like half a second and gives me the reward.

It’s good until it isn’t

It’s great until you get to the 6th stage. You can spend some time grinding up to that point. Then the game just stops and it’s impossible to get past for any casual player who wants to have access to their phone beyond this game. There’s certainly some great things about the game but it’s a bummer there’s an invisible paywall up to get to the “real game”.

Slow paced and boring

The game is fun for the first hour. After that, it's just a waste of time. When you reach the 6th stage, the upgrade to last stage is super boring and takes days to complete unless you are ready to pay. Don't waste your time

Fun, but...

I really like this game in general, but a couple things:
I would like the formulas to be accessible so I would know like how to gain Prestige (unless that would be abusable)
Also, I would like to be able to turn Sound so i can listen to Music easier while playing.

In the future, a potential leaderboard would also be cool.
