The management RPG where your heroes keep fighting even when you're gone! Spend their loot on upgrades, unlock classes from Elemental Wizard to Cannon Pirate, and level up 20 unique skills like Farming, Sailing, and even Construction! GAME FEATURES • 19 unique classes to specialize into! Will you max out idle gains, or go for max loot drop chance? • 250 skill perks to play with! A minmax dream! • More content than any other idle game, and rarely found in other RPG games! Complete Post Office Orders, collect and upgrade Stamps, deposit Statues, hunt rare monster for special crafting recipes, pray at the Obol Altar, compete in minigames, build a factory, command pet battles, do research, and more! What other idle games even have half as cool of features? None of them of course! • Unlimited idle gains, unlike most idle Games that cap you at 12 hours. Ew, right? • Level up 12 unique skills in true RPG fashion: Mining, Smithing, Alchemy, Fishing, Woodcutting, Construction, Breeding, Cooking, and more! • Talk to 50+ NPC's, all with hand-drawn pixel art animations • Witness the mental decline of the developer who made this game all by themselves! They've gone so insane that they speak of themselves in the 3rd person! • 200+ unique Equipment, like Helmets, Rings, uh, weapons... you know, all the normal stuff in an MMO • Talk with other REAL people! Kind of like how I'm talking to you right now, except you'll get to talk back! • Get HYPED for new content coming in the future by joining my discord at: Discord.gg/idleon • Yo man, life is too short to be reading entire game descriptions. You got this far, so you either REALLY need to go download the game, or you just scrolled to the bottom to see what's here. If so, there's nothing here except a smiley face with a nose :-)

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: IdleOn at 4.3 against Stellar!'s 2.2. IdleOn also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). Stellar!'s advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 59%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Stellar! sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and IdleOn sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
IdleOn holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IdleOn has 2.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Stellar!'s written reviews are positive against 59% of IdleOn's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Stellar! ships an update every 2 months, IdleOn weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
