### 4/5 — Simple, fun, but a bit lacking

*2025-07-01*

Nice little idler, worth the money but not enough content and progression for an idler.

**Developer response:** Glad to know you had some fun with our game! 😁

Thank you for taking the time to rate and review. We appreciate it!

### 4/5 — Special tokens

*2025-06-21*

You don’t get any no matter how many it says you get

**Developer response:** Mind if I ask what you’re referring to?

### 4/5 — Progress

*2025-06-16*

This is definitely my type of game however I don’t like that progress isn’t saved anywhere but locally. I switched phones and lost all my progress

**Developer response:** Thank you for rating and reviewing! We feel your pain! That’s one of the weaknesses of using a smaller game engine. We found no possible way to implement cloud saves at the time. :/

### 5/5 — The game I’ve been wanting

*2025-01-06*

Been wanting an idle/incremental game for iPhone that didn’t have horrendous microtransactions or ads and I finally found it!! It’s quite addictive and great to pass the time. I’ll support any creator that doesn’t force mtx down your throat.

**Developer response:** We’re so happy to hear that you had a good time with our game. Also, thank you very much for the kind words and for leaving a review! We really appreciate all of it!😄

### 5/5 — This is the one

*2024-12-22*

I don’t usually write reviews. But this game is so obscenely fun that I had to give you guys a shout out.. Can’t wait for Tap Knight 2 or whatever the next game you guys releases.

**Developer response:** Very much appreciated, Chris! Very kind words. Thank you. We are thrilled to know you enjoyed our game and thank you for dropping the review. It helps us out a ton. 😊

### 5/5 — Fun

*2024-11-23, version 1.9.3*

Just started and so far it’s very enjoyable and fun!

### 5/5 — OBSCENELY ADDICTIVE

*2024-11-20*

This game occupied more than 140 hours of my time pre phase 3. I spent less time on God of War (PS4) than on this game. Lots of care and dedication is felt through every slime you kill. 

Devs have been active since launch, and they have absorbed dedicated feedback from fans to continuously update the game’s replay-ability.

**Developer response:** That’s a long time! We are glad you’ve had that much fun with TK. 😄
Thank you for the kind words! 🙏

### 5/5 — Cool

*2024-11-01*

Cool game, good price

**Developer response:** Appreciate that! 😊

### 5/5 — Edit to awesome but I have a bug

*2023-04-18*

It is apparently not a bug just my horrible luck again but thanks for informing me about how to increase my chances

**Developer response:** First thank you for giving our game a chance and taking the time to rate it. We do hope you are enjoying it. 

As for the issue you have, it’s not a bug. The artifacts have a chance to drop. The only one with a 100% drop rate is the crown. All bosses drop an artifact but some people have worst luck with it than others. 😅

What I’d recommend for you to try is to put some prestige points into the luck branch of the tree. As many as you can and then try beating the bosses. Keep in mind that resetting the skill tree cost 10,000 gold. You can also reset the skills as many times as you want with no penalties. We encourage players to experiment with as many builds as they’d like to try. So, in your case a luck build is the way to go. There is a branch in particular that is geared towards artifact luck. Once you have as many points allocated into the luck branch. I’d say go to the third boss. His artifact increases luck. Combo the luck build with that artifact and you should be able to drop the rest no problem. 

I hope this helps and happy tapping! 😁
Also, feel free to join the discord for more help and answers to any questions in a more direct fashion. We are pretty quick to get back to players on discord. Hope to see you there.

### 5/5 — Amazing game!

*2023-01-24*

It’s very easy and straightforward, progress is quick and doesn’t drag on like other games. The armor and upgrades keep things fun and prestige keeps it very fresh and enjoyable! 10/10 highly recommend trying it

Also, 0 ads and In-App purchases so the grind is 100% natural

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words! We truly appreciate them! Also, thank you very much for taking the time to leave a rating and a review. It helps us so much.

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2022-12-27*

Awesome game. But I do need iCloud syncing!

**Developer response:** We’re really glad you enjoyed our game. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. The feature is on the list but we don’t know if we’ll be able to implement it anytime soon. I do apologize for that.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2022-12-14*

This is such a great idle game! I’m very glad I ran across it. It’s not super deep but for the price and with no adds or in-app purchases, it’s just a hidden gem.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words. The review helps us a ton. It’s really awesome to hear you enjoyed our game. 😊

### 4/5 — Dog gifts

*2022-10-25, version 1.9.3*

Fun game but it pisada me off when my pup Gives a gift  of a heart or a green add and it doesn’t show up…. Same with sword….. where’s the instruction or fix?

### 5/5 — Totally Worth It!

*2022-08-03*

I’ve been playing this game for many months now, and while the gameplay used to get repetitive, the new content adds much more incentive to continue grinding. A couple bucks is a small price to pay for such a great experience. The community has been incredible, and the developers are impeccable. Many of the updates are based solely around requests from community members, and they are always looking to make the game better for us. I am very excited for what comes from these people in the future. Thank you! ❤️

### 5/5 — Increase Spawn Limit and Decrease the Spawn Time

*2022-07-10, version 1.6.1*

I want to get reckless

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — The game reset itself

*2026-07-02*

Well unfortunately the game suddenly reset itself after 5 days of playing while I was playing. I didn’t go prestige and I didn’t reset it myself.

**Developer response:** Hey, that definitely shouldn’t happen. I apologize for the inconvenience. You’re the first person this happens to on iOS. We had this happen on Android and managed to patch it. Would you mind telling us the device and OS version you’re running?

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2025-11-24, version 1.9.6*

It was enjoyable until it suddenly became impossible to turn the music off

### 1/5 — Very light on content.

*2021-11-15, version 1.1.1*

Way better idle games out there for free :/

### 2/5 — Gut gemacht aber …

*2021-12-26*

Leider viel zu schnell viel zu schwer. Reiz ist nach etwa 6 Stunden Spielzeit verloren.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear that. Usually the complaint we get is that the game is too easy. Definitely take it one monster at a time. The fact that you control the output of monsters lets you control the difficulty. 🙂

### 2/5 — Too easy but has potential

*2021-11-20*

The game is too easy when you do the right build, it needs to be more balanced and more content.

**Developer response:** Thank you for trying our game. 
At the very least we hope you had fun with it. :)

### 3/5 — Ansich ist die Idee ganz lustig

*2023-01-03*

Aber leider kann ich seafolk nicht spielen. Mein Kämpfer greift nicht an und ist sofort tot. Auch sind die zweiten stages extrem schwer.

**Developer response:** We hope you have been enjoying the game. 
The Seafolk stages are purposely difficult. The curve is rather steep, but that’s by design. Those are endgame levels. As for the stages, anything past stage/phase 2 is meant to challenge players. If you only play casually, don’t feel pressured to beat anything after phase 2 on the first 8 worlds. 
I hope this helps.

### 3/5 — Good style but quite repetitive

*2022-07-02*

I liked the look of this game and really enjoyed the parts with the dog but it was a bit too repetitive for me. Also there wasn’t much inventive to keep on playing as the new outfits etc required way more resources than you could get without grinding a ridiculous amount.

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2021-12-01*

Too short. I beat all 64 stages in few prestiges. I don’t understand the point of the gear it gives you nothing but pointless look. Lacks content. Unfortunately it doesn’t worth 2$. I would rather play something similar for free but with ads.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear the game wasn’t for you. I hope you at least enjoyed your time. :)

### 4/5 — No Sync

*2026-08-25*

Decent game for the price. Disappointed that you cannot sync between devices.

**Developer response:** Thank you for trying out our game! Hope you had a good time with it. 😁

We wish we could have cloud saves. Currently the game engine we use doesn’t support it. If they bring it, best believe we’ll start implementing it. 

Thank you for the rating and review! We appreciate all feedback! 😎

### 4/5 — Güncelleme

*2025-08-28, version 1.9.3*

Oyuna karakteri yükseltebileceğimiz ekipmanlar eklenmek zorunda sürekli aynı şeyi yapıyoruz.

*2026-04-03*

Keep doing the good work !

**Developer response:** Thank you very much! Too kind! 😄

### 5/5 — GJ

*2025-09-14, version 1.9.3*

Nice game

### 5/5 — Great little gem

*2025-08-27*

Awesome little idle game with skill activations to help you feel more involved in game or with ability to go full idle. Simple rinse and repeat to get stronger to clear more levels. Worth the price tag! Help support the two brother developer duo! They are super active in their discord and are currently working on another game. Buy and play and tell them DYNO sent ya!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for the kind words, Dyno! We appreciate you taking the time to write this review. 😊

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-08-19*

would love more updates

**Developer response:** Thank you for the rate and review! We’d love to come back to it someday. 😄

### 5/5 — Enjoying it!

*2025-06-19*

I tend to get sick of clicker games, but this was sufficiently different. Still on it after a couple days!

**Developer response:** Oooh! Glad to hear that you enjoyed our take on an idle/clicker game. 😄

Thank you for rating and reviewing our game.

### 5/5 — Love the game…but

*2025-06-17*

This is well worth the .99 cents I’m enjoy it…

However today when I started it up after work I’m having to repick my artifact after every level I beat. Getting old fast please fix this  so I can keep the 5star rating it deserves

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to give us a rate and review. 

We’ll look into what you’re describing.

### 5/5 — THERES A DOG YOU CAN PET AND PLAY WITH 5/5

*2025-06-09*

I hope devs see this. The game is fun. I just hope the ui gets a clean up. The beautiful pixel look of the game doesn’t really match with the current ui. Idk how to describe it but I would have it redesigned.

Bonus: you can unlock a dog to play fetch with and pet.

**Developer response:** We definitely saw this. 😄
It’s possible that we could go back and touch up certain things. We’ve learned a lot since we made this game. 

If you’re curious Oli is a real dog. It’s my brother’s actual dog. 😁

### 5/5 — amazing

*2025-06-09*

underrated game, definitely worth a dollar, no ads whatsoever

**Developer response:** Thank you for that. :D
We truly appreciate the rating and review.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2025-06-04*

I figured for a buck why not what’s the worst but now this is my hyper fixation game and it’s my favourite way to wind down and decompress. Supporting real people too, I like that most.

**Developer response:** Aw, such kind words! Thank you very much. 😊

We are happy to hear that you’re enjoying our game so much.

### 5/5 — Excellent! No additional $

*2025-05-26*

Great game to kill time! Super fair price, confirmed no in app purchases and no ads. 

Would love more content! Happy to support devs like this!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much! 😄
We just dropped our new game. We may come back to make more content for TK if not we’ll make a sequel. All still in talks.
