What players say

Players describe this as a minimal but satisfying incremental game where hovering replaces clicking. The campaign is short and forces a prestige cycle, though the roguelike and endless modes offer more replayability. Some note that the upgrades become less interesting over time, and opinions split on whether the forced prestiges add or subtract from the fun.
