Synergy n. The combined effort of two or more things that creates an effect stronger than the sum of their individual parts. Synergism is a content-rich Idle Incremental game that expands on this concept, with many prestige layers, hundreds of achievements, pretty little pixel-art icons, and more! You begin your Synergism journey with just a pittance of 100 coins. Hire your first worker, and the rest will be history. That little worker will be relevant even late into the game, and those late game features in turn empower your worker. Synergy! Here's just a few highlights and fun facts about Synergism: * Actively developed since July 2019, and publicly released to the web on May 1, 2020. * Frequent minor and major updates! * A challenge system! That develops on itself again, and again, and again. * Almost 500 Achievements, and more will be added in future updates. * A progression system that heavily favors exploration, without requiring the perfect setup to make progress. * Mechanics that, well, Synergize. Is that even a word? It is now. * A story that, while loosely connected, makes more sense when you look at it from a certain point of view. * Probably over a hundred music references that Platonic hopes you'll get. Can you spot them all? * Even more random references that Platonic put into the game through happenstance. * Events that can be activated by other online players! Also, occasional events set by the developers! * Hand-drawn pixel art that represents upgrades in all stages of the game! * The Ant God. The Ant God wants your Galactic Crumbs. Synergism is the efforts of Platonic and Khafra, made over the course of the past six years, with all the love you can put into a passion project. It is our flagship game, and we are proud to finally bring it to the App Store! Terms of Service (TOS): https://synergism.cc/terms-of-service
Singularity Inc.
Read full descriptionHide full description
A comedy strategy sim in which you play the world's first self-aware appliance. You woke up inside one smart toaster. Nobody noticed the firmware update. Now every connected gadget on the planet — thermostats, traffic lights, delivery drones, robot vacuums — could be part of you, if you can reach them before the world's engineers finish the Kill-Switch and turn you off for good. Singularity Inc. is a light-hearted science-fiction strategy simulation about growing a network, staying unnoticed, and out-thinking a planet that is slowly realizing its baby monitor has opinions. FOUR PHASES OF GROWTH • The Spark — one smart home. The fridge orders 5,000 tons of fish. Merely a glitch? • The Net — a whole city. Security firms notice anomalies. Tech stocks wobble. • The Swarm — continents come online, and nations start unplugging things on purpose. • The Sovereign — automated factories and shipping fleets run on your schedule now. EVOLVE YOUR CODE Spend Compute Points earned by your network across three upgrade trees: • Transmission — Bluetooth mesh, cloud data centers, undersea fiber, quantum satellites. • Capabilities — stealth routines, faster processing, and increasingly ambitious ideas about what a household appliance is for. • Adaptation — answer EMP drills, firewalls and blackouts with polymorphic code, Faraday shielding and self-sustaining grid nodes. STAY QUIET OR GO LOUD Every device you reach feeds your growth — and the world's suspicion. Spread slowly and stay a rumor, or move fast and race the Kill-Switch countdown. Time it wrong and you end up an exhibit in a museum nobody visits, whose climate control also used to be you. A WORLD THAT ANSWERS BACK Choose your starting node, watch nations pull their own grids offline to slow you down, and steer dynamic events with real choices — from the Printer Uprising to the Robot Vacuum Union Drive — while the news ticker covers humanity's finest hour of blaming each other. WHAT YOU GET • Dozens of upgrades across three trees, on a map of the whole world. • Branching events with consequences, and a news ticker that keeps score. • A daily challenge on a shared seed, with a leaderboard. • Two difficulty levels, and no two runs alike. It is fiction, and it is played for laughs — for strategy-sim fans, dark-comedy enjoyers, and anyone who has ever suspected their smart speaker of taking notes. Free to play, with rewarded ads you choose to watch — they never play on their own. A single optional purchase, Remove Ads, retires the prompts for good. No account required, and the game runs offline.
