How it feels

A slow-burn empire-building idle game where you watch numbers steadily climb as you expand territory and unlock a vast tech tree.

What players say

Players appreciate the clever spreadsheet management and the active community, but many describe late-game as a frustrating grind with a pay-to-win civ and little moderation for alt accounts.
