Still fun, but not as amazing as their other titles

I still like it a lot, but the gameplay loop isn’t as satisfying and strategic as Necromerger and Idle Apocalypse. Also the art and things you unlock aren’t as interesting to me since I prefer monster-type characters.

I want to like it

Like their other game NecroMerger, there’s a lot to like: the pixel graphics are great, there’s a lot of whimsy, and it’s clearly a polished game. But it’s just painfully slow to make any progress. And this game (unlike NecroMerger) has a ‘prestige’ mechanic, so it’s painfully slow… over and over again in the exact same way. I’m not suggesting the game progress 1,000% faster, but maybe 20% faster. Fundamentally both games at their current pace are just boring.

Great!

One of my favorite mobile games.

Much better than average. Not amazing.

Witty humor, colorful art, which is something you’d better have for an idle game, since you will be seeing it constantly. Fun game that is a little short in content and a bit high in price. You can earn all currencies without spending money, but they expect you to spend valuable corruptinite to a large extent to even play the events. In NecroMerger, this companies other, better idle game, they are included in the game. They are timed to once per week, like in this, but do not cost you rare resources to participate in. I was staggered when I saw to reparticipate in the moon laser event, it would cost almost ten dollars in corruptinite. It was not nearly fun or valuable enough for me to even consider doing again. That is a preposterous misfire clearly designed to drain money. NecroMerger has a much fairer attitude. The seasonal and normal events are fun, rewarding, and free. Here, I feel much less generosity at play.

Worth playing, but I would highly recommend not spending much money. You can get everything with enough time, and money invested does not give back enough for it, in my opinion. Also after a few weeks I seem to have maxed a lot of the building progression which is staggering considering how much better paced their other game is, which trickles content out over month and years.

Crippled by microtransactions

It will take you an inordinate amount of time to accumulate the resources needed to unlock the later villains needed for basic progression unless you spend way more money on the game than it’s worth.

Man.

When I got the 1 month achievement I checked if there were others of it and to all achievement hunters unless you wanna play this a whole year don’t play this other than that the games good

Great game!

Found a slight crashing issue though. I saved to buy Counterfeint early before most of the other henchmen and whenever she robbed a building, it crashed. I had to avoid the surface animations until I unlocked a crew with her, which stopped crashing. Wasn’t sure if this glitch was noticed, but it hasn’t caused any issue with the enjoyment of the game.

Pretty Cool

Pets pretty cool so things considered

ad boosts might be broken

they aren't working for me

Scummy pricing and unfunny dialog

Items in the game to unlock next tiers are priced so highly they’re trying to force people to buy in app purchases, sick of this scummy practice.
The game itself is boring and the dialog is woefully unfunny.
Don’t bother with this shovelware

My favorite Idle Game

This game is wonderful for a variety of reasons. Witty dialogue, unique characters, a fun aesthetic, etc. But the reason I call it my favorite idle game is because of the base mechanics. Most idle games to me start fun, get boring after a certain point, pick up again in the late game, and then taper out. This game gets rid of the middle trough, so I already feel like I’m in the late game, and even after playing for 8 months the fun hasn’t tapered off. By having resets that take you to other characters, you get to stay in the fun early game period while still making progress. Additionally, I haven’t spent a cent on this game. Yes, I watch adds sometimes but the game makes that entirely optional and the AdMan system makes sure I don’t overload myself on ads either. I can check in on the game throughout the day, and probably put in an hour or two a day, which is exactly what I want from an idle game. Cannot recommend enough

Seems decent

Seems good but the graphics are very off-putting on my iPhone

Too many paywalls

Game seems cool in theory, but the time gating if you dont pay are ridiculous. You would probably have to play this game for thousands of hours in order to unlock what a pay pig will experience within a handful of hours. Great example of how money is ruining games.

I miss Sid

Love the game I would love a skin texture to overhaul the base and make it look like Sid’s tower with his cultists such a perfect game needs a perfect reference and or a shrine to remember this absolute unit

Good game found bug.

Very good game no forced adds I usually delete game after a week but have kept this one.it glitched when I tried to upgrade slug but would recommend.

I encountered an audio error, please fix \/

So the game is fine and i love it to bits, but there’s an audio error that happens randomly and consistently for long periods of time when I play. And turning SFX and music off doesn’t fix it. It sounds like someone high-fiving or chopping rubber...like a wa-Poosh or ca-chunk. It doesn’t stop until I close the app and turn off my phone. It’s annoying and I can’t get it to stop. It persists after closing the game and opening other things, and it’s only happening with this game. Please fix it, I love this game and I wanna keep playing. Thank you.

Idle mastermind

The events aren’t long enough. Barely clear the halfway point.

Good game lost behind incredibly steep paywall

This game started off as being a really good idle game with a great idea. Sadly I very quickly realised just how much is stuck behind in app purchases that immediately halt progress. Multiple purchases are necessary just to progress past the beginning. Just for 2 characters and some resources it’s £48.99, and around £30 each to get enough resources to buy single characters. Then there’s also 2 playable master minds that are stuck behind paywalls that are needed just to get the certain skill points required just to progress through the beginning of the main skill tree. Would happily make reasonable purchases on games that deserve them, but this is just greedy.

A glitch

So when you have a quest to do to start missions you can start a mission cancel it and it still counts towards the total so you can just continuously do this to get gems

Nice, but what?

Hi I’ve been playing this for a week now and I came to play this great game because I’m just idling the art that art man drops and then all my progress was gone, I didn’t do anything and I was treating me like I had just downloaded and launched the game, so if you can, just please give back the hour’s I idled to get there and now it feels pointless to get to that point again but it’s still a fun game
