### **--- "Way, way, WAY too slow!"
At level 24 and a best speed of only x4, this isn’t an idle game. It’s a fossilization game. One to forget about out of pure boredom. This takes Idle games to a painful. And you have to keep watching ads, ads that now are doubled up, to keep the snail pace of x4 speed. And if you do follow an ad to the Ap Store, when you come back, as a reward you either have to watch the whole ad again or a whole new ad! Idle nothing. At this rate I won’t live long enough to get to the higher levels. Where’s the fun in that? The first 15 levels, or so, where fun. Now, I might as well watch the grass grow. It’s as much fun. I’ll hang around for another update or two but if the x4 speed is best speed then it’s time to move on and let someone else watch all the ads. 5 stars down to 2 stars. A good idea lost in execution.

### ***** "Awesome Idle Game"
Love this little gem and have been playing for about two or three months now.  Hard to find decent idle games that aren’t littered with forced adds or just straight cookie cutter clones of other stuff out there. It feels fresh and original with clean and simple interface that doesn’t overwhelm you at any point, especially at the start. I find it offers a good mix of active and idle play. It rewards players for planning ahead and strategizing once the game mechanics become clear to you and new features unlock, however, it’s not necessary for you to play and enjoy the game. Aside from a few tricky challenge runs, everything moves at a decent pace, especially if you play in spurts throughout the day, and I haven’t hit any crazy bottlenecks yet. A single ad bonus button is tucked away nicely in the corner and doesn’t flash or pester you. An ad gives you a respectable 4 hours of 2x speed per view, which I personally keep refreshed. I’m not sure if there’s a cap, but I’ve had it over 24 hours. The store, also tucked away nicely in a menu, sells an additional permanent 2x speed boost for a reasonable price that helps support the developer and stacks with the ad, giving a potential total of 4x speed. None of these are necessary or pushed on you, but I made the purchase because I enjoy the game that much. I’ve already seen several updates adding new features and improvements. Hope more people and give it a try so that the developer continues to invest in the game. If you enjoy idle games, I highly recommend you give this a go; it definitely did not disappoint me.

### ***** "Worth the download"
I’ve enjoyed this so far. Almost on 2 weeks of playing. No ads.
-- Rigatoni Rig, 2025-04-13

### ***** "What the…"
This game just completely changed… for even better…

This game has already been an awesome incremental.  This needs to be on broken mouse subreddit stat.  I legit just came to the App Store to see if there’s an update for it bc I’ve liked it so much.   And I’m the type that never updates apps lol.  So you know!

And they just added yet one more layer to the game that’s awesome!  Changed nothing about before but now there’s new more!!   We get so many updates as of now… and honestly the game is already peak. 

The ONLY criticism I have at all is that if I paid to have x2 speed.  Don’t make it so if I watch an ad I can now get x4 speed.  Give me the option to purchase FULL max speed or don’t do it like that bc it irks me to not be at max speed.  And I mean MAX possible, and yet I’ve already paid to never see any ad or want to.  

But even with that this game is a must get for me.

### ***** "Amazing game"
Really fun game.  Only complaints are you can pick challenges that take a long time to complete with no warning(although when you get access you should understand the mechanics fairly well) and some mechanics are hidden such as some ideas increasing the speed of other ideas.  The math is rich in this game.  There’s still so much to understand about the mechanics amid how to optimize!
-- Tyler Daaavis, 2025-04-03

### ***** "Numbers go up"
A fun idle game to kill some time here and there. I wish the progression was a tad bit faster, but overall I enjoyed the game enough to earn a 4.5/5
-- HollaBackDad, 2025-03-24

### ***** "numbers go up = fun"
Numbers go up. What else can I say? My only complaint is that the IAP for 2x production doesn't eliminate the choice to get an *additional* 2x from video ads. I would love an option to remove ads entirely, even if it's more expensive than the current 2x IAP.
-- MooseBoys, 2025-03-20

### ***** "Most satisfying idler since kittensgame"
As an avid incremental and idle game player, this has been my favorite mobile game since i played kittensgame years ago. Really excellent design, it’s so fun watching the early levels eventually shoot by. Looking forward to challenges 4 and more.
-- Metaanoiiaa, 2025-03-20

### ***** "Fun!"
Minimal ad interruption which is huge. Game is very entertaining! Some of the idea progressions you unlock aren’t quite sensible.. for instance, you get education and democracy and later is windmills. I feel like those would come before all that. That aside, my only question is about the prestige warp gain. Do the multipliers shown in challenges for that gain stay permanent once the challenge is completed or are they only active during challenges? Please answer me devs I can’t quite figure that out.

### ***** "Amazing game"
Nice work dev!
