### 4/5 — Great gameplay

*2026-07-01, version 1.15.14*

This game is really fun, but there’s more content that’s still unfinished. I just completed the Journey to Terminus, and expected something to happen, but I just started collecting dust, which, as far as I can tell, doesn’t do anything(yet).
I’ll come back to the game once it gets some more content, but I’ve already spent a few weeks on it, and it was really enjoyable to play the whole time.

### 4/5 — Reset

*2026-06-30, version 1.15.14*

Please add a confirmation dialogue for the reset button. It shouldn’t be that easy to loose all the progress when you didn’t intend to do it.

### 4/5 — Gameplay is great, cross-device support not the best

*2026-06-28, version 1.15.14*

When trying to connect my save from my computer to my phone, it would not let me. I checked to see if the id was the correct format, and it was. It was the exact string, copied from my computer. However, every time i tried to enter it, my phone kept asking for me to ‘match format’

### 5/5 — Fun, short but Dev is continuing work

*2026-06-01, version 1.15.14*

This was a lot of fun! It hits the perfect point for me where it is an idle game but you want to manually take over some things every now and then to get some big boosts.

### 5/5 — Prestige

*2026-05-31, version 1.15.14*

It is a very fun game and everything I look for in an idle game. However my prestige points have disappeared, I had +10 which I could use last night and when I went on this morning there were 0 and when I passed the money threshold for another point it didnt show. Is there a way to fix this without resetting my progress?

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2026-05-27, version 1.15.13*

This is the first mobile game I’ve truly loved since FarmRPG. Its minimalist occult design and UI make it instantly and effortlessly atmospheric. The instructions too are minimal, which creates a feeling of player agency and an immersive tension that builds as you unlock new game elements. I absolutely love the mechanics of performing rituals, it’s a brilliant game design that contributes to an endlessly satisfying play loop. This game has amazing potential with the possibility of new supply items, research, locations, trinkets and rituals. It’s everything I want in a game and I’d love to see it grow.

### 5/5 — a work in progress but worth it !

*2026-05-21, version 1.15.13*

one of the coolest games i've played in a while i was hooked, as for negatives the end game is a bit imbalanced w the skull questline but mainly i was just sad to " complete the game" and im itching for the next update! SO COOL

### 4/5 — Great for the most part!

*2026-05-21, version 1.15.13*

The content is fun, and progress seems consistent so far, but I have two problems. 

The first, not as important. ~50% of the time when left running in the background and reopened it bugs out, and mostly blacks out the screen.

The second, which has pmo a couple times now to the point I’ve felt like quitting. The prestige button doesn’t have a confirmation screen, and is in the middle of the main screen.

It’s been pressed 3 times while scrolling and reset me with little to no benefit, wasting a ton of time and progress.

### 5/5 — Please play this!

*2026-05-21, version 1.15.13*

It gets better and prestige system is Great

### 4/5 — [Spoilers] Loved it until I upgraded

*2026-05-20, version 1.15.13*

This game was great, I absolutely loved it and it was a great way to spend my free time. After unlocking the magical skull, I really loved the time speed ability, especially the first one, which gave 360x speed for a few seconds since that was very helpful in the early game.

However once I unlocked the spell for the final speed up, everything changed for the worse. All the speed up spells reduced their speed, with the first one changing to 2x speed for a few minutes and cost 3x the amount of blood to use any of them.

After that, I ended up stopping playing because everything was super slow without it and they just cost too much for too little reward.

I’d definitely suggest playing this game, but don’t buy the 4th and final speed spell from the skull.

### 5/5 — Its an idle game

*2026-05-16, version 1.15.13*

No ads though which is nice.

### 1/5 — Waiting simulator late game

*2026-07-13, version 1.15.15*

Fun early game, unique concept, but then everything just starts taking a stupid amount of time, the journeys start taking upwards of days to a week and the upgrades take hours each for tiny improvements

### 1/5 — Losing Progress

*2026-05-14, version 1.15.13*

I have not been able to find a manual save option or a way to force the game to save, so any time the game closes I’ll lose a ton of progress, the most recent being a full 16 hour mission being done, I took a phone call for 5 mins, come back and my game reset to before I even started the 16 hours… please fix this, I really enjoy the game but being constantly in fear I’m going to lose hours sucks.

### 1/5 — Game won’t save

*2026-05-13, version 1.15.13*

Every time I close or minimise the game, it resets my progress, making it completely unplayable if I need to do literally anything else on my phone, will change when issue is fixed

### 2/5 — Keeps losing data

*2026-05-02, version 1.15.13*

I LOVE the idea for this game, it’s very cute, but if I close the game at all, my progress entirely resets. I have tried it both online and offline, since spotty service keeps me from being online 24/7. Would love to give this another shot once it’s patched!

### 3/5 — started freezing on load up

*2026-08-21, version 1.15.16*

.

### 3/5 — Pretty big problem

*2026-06-24, version 1.15.14*

It’s a great and simple game but the cloud save system doesn’t work, I learned that the hard way, and after a week I haven’t received support.

### 3/5 — As reward time nerfed

*2026-06-02, version 1.15.14*

It was great before 1 ad = 6hrs of x2 now it’s 1hr. Game feels slow even with solid upgrades without the x2 speed. I can’t justify $10 for it currently not can I justify 24 daily ads but 4 ads a day was 100% doable

Overall the game is fun and I feel like it could be something different so I’m keen to seen the development

### 3/5 — Good game but it has some major bugs

*2026-05-19, version 1.15.13*

I honestly love the game it’s interesting and well balanced but I repeatedly keep losing my progress and the cloud save function doesn’t seem to be working and when I’m playing I randomly get a black screen for about half a second then I’m suddenly reset back to the beginning which is really frustrating this also seems to happen every time I open the app again if not for that I would rate the game five stars but this is a game breaking bug so if the developers could please fix it that would be awesome

### 4/5 — Great Experience

*2026-08-11, version 1.15.16*

Well though out and fun to play. Not drowned with ads / in app purchases like most games in this genre. One issue: I got too powerful and now the app won’t open 😅

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2026-07-01, version 1.15.14*

I’ve been playing the game for a few weeks now and have had a good time with it and am at the point where I tried getting my prestige to a very high level but ran into a road block.. I noticed that at some point the combination of high level rituals and high levels of grafting made the game bug out! Where if I tried to raise the level above a billion, the game basically freezes.. Probably because grafting makes it so the game needs to calculate how much of the ritual potency needs to be substracted every single grow so at a certain speed to many things happen simultaneously and it freezes! Was wondering if it’s something that could be fixed in some way? Maybe by doing a simplification of what the game would expect from x amount of time with y amount of time reduction and multiply to get a grow/sec rate and a -x% of potency/sec? Otherwise love the game and am very interested to see what stardust will be used for!

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2026-08-08, version 1.15.16*

Great incremental, wish there was more content! Cant wait for updates <3

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-08-07, version 1.15.16*

No notes. Thankyou.

### 5/5 — The best idle game experiences I’ve had in years

*2026-07-21, version 1.15.15*

A great, unique idle game that I’ve loved playing. I’ve completed the game, and can’t wait for new updates.

No predatory in app purchases. 

The game doesn’t hold your hand through discovering the best approach, which I loved, but may not work for everyone.

### 5/5 — Reset

*2026-07-16, version 1.15.15*

Please add a confirmation dialogue for the reset button. It shouldn’t be that easy to loose all the progress when you didn’t intend to do it.

### 5/5 — Download this game

*2026-07-13, version 1.15.15*

This game is great! Progression does well. Download this so the guy making it can stop his day job and develop this game more.

### 5/5 — Short and Sweet - Great Future Potential

*2026-07-11, version 1.15.15*

I am a big fan of the idle/clicker genre. The ritual sequence feature is such a fun addition that brings a level of intrigue I really enjoy. There’s something really fun about finding new sequences and figuring out what they do. Right now the game is a bit 
short, but the fundamentals are there and I know it could grow into something really great! Overall, I enjoyed it!

### 5/5 — suggestion

*2026-07-10, version 1.15.15*

a swipe to cast spells would be very nice for mobile users

### 5/5 — Very good, needs some minor QoL

*2026-06-20, version 1.15.14*

I have been playing this game for a few weeks and it is very good! I have had lots of fun, the mechanics are interesting without being overly complicated. 
My only issue is I wish the game was a bit more exact with its descriptions. It rounds time oddly and it would be a lot more helpful if it showed hours *and* minutes in timers. 
Also a break down of how buffs add together would be useful, but not necessary.

### 5/5 — Great Incremental!

*2026-06-13, version 1.15.14*

Great game! I’d love to see more content or QOL updates (like being able to cast from the notebook) but whats here so far is super nice!!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-06-02, version 1.15.14*

Very solid game but hate how slow it is to gain scrolls.(4 per day kinda sucks)
