How it feels

A strategic idle RPG where you methodically absorb enemy abilities and plan the order of battles to grow stronger over repeated playthroughs.

What players say

Players are split on Absorber. Many enjoy the simple idle concept but agree it feels unfinished and lacks depth. The game is short, around five hours of active play, and has very few achievements.
