Features
Read full description

Crumb Clicker is an idle clicker game about a mysterious crumb you found between your couch cushions. Tap it. Buy upgrades. Watch it evolve from an innocent speck into something that judges you. TAP THE CRUMB Start with a single poke. Each tap earns crumbs. Simple, right? It won't stay that way. BUY UPGRADES Lint Rollers. Cushion Flips. Couch Shakers. Crumb Whisperers. Sentient Cushions. The Excavation. Each one generates crumbs automatically — and makes things weirder. WATCH IT CHANGE The crumb evolves as you progress. It grows eyes. It develops opinions. It starts talking. It says "rude." You keep tapping anyway. EARN WHILE AWAY Your upgrades keep generating crumbs even when the app is closed. Come back to a pile of crumbs and a crumb that missed you. Probably. FREE TO PLAY No paywalls. No pay-to-win. Just a crumb, a couch, and the choices you made.

Fuse hydrogen into a living star. Grow it. Then blow it up — on purpose. SUPERNOVA is a premium-feel idle game about running a cosmic forge. Tap to spark fusion, build 12 generators from Hydrogen Wisp to Singularity Seed, and watch your star physically evolve — protostar, blue giant, red supergiant — until it is ready to collapse. Detonating it is the point: every supernova grants Neutron Cores, permanent power that makes each new universe faster than the last. WHY YOU'LL STAY • Real progress while you're away — production continues offline (extend the cap up to 24 hours with research), and a welcome-back doubler greets your return • A star that actually changes — five visual stages, rendered live, no canned art • Prestige that feels like a finale — a hand-built supernova cinematic, then a stronger start • Numbers that get gloriously big — Million, Septillion, and far beyond • Milestones every few minutes early on, deep multiplier stacking later • Daily missions and streaks that respect your time • 20 research upgrades that shape every run FAIR BY DESIGN • No ads. None. • No energy bars, no forced waits, no progress walls • Fully offline — no account, no sign-in, no internet required • Nothing collected, nothing tracked • Optional purchases exist (time warps, photons, a one-time Supporter Pack), and the entire game is balanced to be completed without spending anything THE LOOP 1. Tap your star and let generators forge Stardust 2. Hit ownership milestones — each one doubles a generator's output 3. Buy research, stack a Photon Surge boost, fill your Piggy Bank 4. Reach collapse readiness... and go SUPERNOVA 5. Keep your Neutron Cores forever. Start again, faster. Built by a solo developer in SwiftUI and SpriteKit. Every pixel is procedural — no asset packs, no stock art. Dark theme, tuned haptics, Reduce Motion respected. Your first universe is waiting. It starts with one atom.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Crumb Clicker at none against Supernova's 10. Supernova's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
