Love this game

Been playing nonstop, I love the music too. One pretty major flaw tho is the documentation is seriously lacking; a lot of mechanics are completely or poorly unexplained which makes it hard to strategize. For example: the power requirement to build and upgrade zones seems to be an arbitrary number (also, a nitpick from an electrical engineer, its kW, not Kw), the green/purple power capacity bar truly doesnt make sense it should be demand/capacity maybe its capacity/demand? no idea what “100%+ idle time” means, Carbontopia is lowkey unplayable as the mechanics are obtuse. Just please add more explanations!

Response from developer

Hey, thanks for the constructive feedback, this is great! If you're up for it, I'd love to run some ideas on how to improve on these with you. Shoot me an email at hello@tinker-labs.com and I'd be grateful. Either way, I glad you liked it and appreciate it all.

Rewarded ad stuck – Close button doesn’t work

Hello,
I’m having an issue with rewarded ads in Power Inc on iPhone.
After the ad finishes, it says “Reward granted”, but the X/close button doesn’t respond, so I can’t return to the game.

Device: iPhone
Game: Power Inc

Could you please look into this issue?
Thank you!

Response from developer

Hi thanks for letting me know. If it happens with a specific ad, please share its details with me at hello@tinker-labs.com and I should be able to block it. Sometimes though, the ad providers have this as a periodic problem and last time they had it, it was solved by itself after 2 days or so. There wasn't much I was able to do about it, and everybody is losing from these kind of issues :( Either way you are welcome to reach out to hello@tinker-labs.com and I'll try and do my best,

Great game with no ads!!

I love the daily science questions, I’m studying electrical engineering so these questions are very fun to learn/know!

Very good game thank you for making this!

One star don’t download pay to win game

It’s a pay to win game. I will not support it. These developers Hollow. They make a free game but then put a bunch of portable stuff that you have to purchase in the game to get any word after downloading this game last night and playing it for quite some time I can’t upgrade my characters. That’s turning the turbines because I gotta Have coins how do you get coins? Purchased them with real money they can kiss my behind I get plum disgusted with people in their greed I will not support him if you’re going to say you’re going to make a free game then make a free game. Don’t charge us to beat it. Don’t charge us to remove ads. I know y’all’s business tactics with those ads Call of Duty mobile is a free game and you don’t have no ads in I will not support you all the game needed more tutorials y’all lack that and then have to pay to go any further. You’re greedy.

Response from developer

There are many ways to get that currency beyond IAP. The game is designed to be completely completable without watching ads and spending even a single $. Check out the milestones, daily trivia, and the prestige to nobels ability in the tree.

Surprisingly unique

The music is good and original It makes me want to keep the app open. It is an idle game, but things are moving at such a high rate that you feel like you’re accomplishing quite a bit. Their daily rewards are smartly intertwined with “scientific“ questions.

All things considered, they reinvented the wheel, and this sucker is smooth.
