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!

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!

Thanks! Glad you liked it and the trivia as well. Stay tuned for more upcoming content

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.

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.

Glad you liked it. This is pretty much exactly what I tried to achieve. I hope to keep up with more interesting upgrades soon.

Great Idle Game

I have been enjoying playing this game. I do wish there was just a little more tutorial around adding homes vs businesses or at least a way to see how they are effecting each other or how much I am making from one and the other individually after I have purchased them.

One other thing, it would be nice to be able to move or adjust scientists and auto bottlers without having to switch locations.

Again like the game! Thanks for making it

Electric

That is a good game

Love This Game!!!

This game is a lot of fun, and it has the same vibe as Soda Dungeon, which I love. There is a decent amount of strategy to this game, and it requires you to experiment a bit. That’s why it feels slow to those who stay on one run. Prestige often and try new things depending on what is tripping you up.

I wish there was some tutorials for the other areas, they’re kinda confusing, but I’m having a blast on the main map. I love how there isn’t any ads, and that the mayor is available to help you progress a bit quicker.

I absolutely love this game, can’t wait to see where it goes.

Glad you like it! A few weeks ago I released the milestone trees that I think give a little bit more guidance but I totally agree that Carbontopia could use a little bit more. I'm hoping to work on that in the coming weeks.

Too heavily time gated

The only way to make progress for me was the trivia quiz, which you can only do once a day. Cause you need the single unit of special currency from it, and it was either that or spending money.

It asked a profoundly dumb question about the ‘flow’ of a magnetic field (magnetic fields don’t flow) and while thinking about the right answer I ran out of time. So now, if I want to make any progress, I either wait an entire day to try again at the trivia, or pay money.

I’ve opted to just delete this terrible game instead.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. There are many more ways to get that currency, just need a little bit more tinkering, or some extra guidance. I'll look into the trivia question and if needs refining. Though by the sound of it it might just not be a game for you, and that's totally fine.

Great game.

I've only played for about an hour now, but this game does ads like no other. The reward system it uses makes me not mind watching the ads at all. On top of that it's just a fun game in general, with a banger of a soundtrack.

Zeitverschwendung

Was für ein sinnloses Spiel. Der Oberhammer ist aber das man ständig gezwungen wird den Fortschritt zu resetten um an die Prestige Punkte zu kommen. Wer kommt auf so eine unsinnige Idee? Die inApp Käufe sind auch viel zu teuer für sinnfreie Inhalte.

Sieht für mich nach Scam aus

Response from developer

Hallo, danke für dein ehrliches Feedback. Das Prestige-System – also Fortschritt zurücksetzen für dauerhafte Boni – ist tatsächlich das Kernprinzip von Idle-Spielen. Das ist nicht für jeden etwas, das verstehe ich. Wichtig ist mir aber: Das Spiel ist komplett kostenlos spielbar, alle In-App-Käufe sind rein optional und nichts ist hinter einer Paywall versteckt. Von einem Scam kann also keine Rede sein. Falls du konkrete Ideen hast, was besser laufen sollte, schreib mir gern an hello@tinker-labs.com, ich lese jede Nachricht.

Chilll

Jeu chill et agréable à jouer

Great game

Very interesting, keeps you engaged

Honest Review

The game is wonderful and genuinely full of random things to do and obtain. My only issue is regarding the balancing of numbers, small things like how much generator prices cost and your income

Good but…

Had potential and makes a big deal of having no ads however it’s so slow that you have to watch ads or buy expensive iap (prestige is slow). There’s better and more balanced tycoon games out there.

Response from developer

Hey, thanks for the feedback. I just release v0.8 that includes more things to do + boosts, I hope they will make the game feel faster. To be honest though most of the feedback I get from players is actually about the game being too short. The majority of my playtesting is done with no boosts and with no skip ads so I also do take f2p players into account. For me the challenge is to balance the game for both players who want to squeeze the existing content for as long as possible vs players who wish to complete the game fast, which might seem to fit better with your preference.

Good start, Slow progression

The Game idea is good, but progression is way to slow. In other games you would get like an earnings multiplier with every prestige, so it gets faster to get back to the point where you prestiged. I am waiting to get enough money to upgrade tier 5 for about 4 weeks now… this is way to slow.

Response from developer

Hey I appreciate the feedback, this is one of the toughest things for me to nail down. I'm in the process of balancing a new version before release, if you want to help me out with refining the balance, please don't hesitate to reach out to hello@tinker-labs.com

Fun game

It’s a fun ideal game, great time eater but I downloaded that game late last year and to date it’s still in its Christmas update. Beyond that it’s market as a community that shares it’s ’tips and ideas’ that’s simply not true, I assume a dev is just trying to make as much money as possible but if they update the game I’ll be proven wrong.

Response from developer

You are more than welcome to join Discord, sign up for beta and get an early taste of the upcoming version that has been in the works for several months. Also, the Christmas event that was this year had a major update and is totally not like last years. If you are curious you can look at the many discord comments when it was up a few months ago and see for yourself. I appreciate the feedback and I'm always on the lookout for beta testers that will give me the not-so-nice feedback.

Bweh

Lowkey rlly fun for a idle game and the trivia is cool

Optional ads!

Look at my nickname, of course I appreciate this but the game is also good in of itself if you like idle games with different unique mechanics that you wouldn't find anywhere else.

Devs respond to save issues
