How it feels

A laid-back, management-focused idle game where you gradually build power through auto-progression and skill upgrades.

What players say

Players describe a shallow idle RPG with some charm in its artwork but little depth. A common complaint is the lack of offline progress, and several note the game feels abandoned with no new updates. Players also mention microtransactions and a repetitive loop with no hard reset to start over.
