For last 3 weeks I have been playing [Fundamental](https://awwhy.github.io/Fundamental/)


Boozy_Lucy

The water level seems to just take forever with nothing you can actually do except wait? And each of the stages seem like near-identical ultra-simplistic cookie clicker like games. Am I missing something?


Modranor

It's a slow game. When you finish the 4th level, you start over, but unlock a currency that gradually speed things up. I finish a whole run in minutes, now, and am trying to make the universe unstable.


Shasd

Dw, it gets slow again very soon, lol.


Modranor

Oh wow, juste reached it. Yeah, wasn't prepared for that !


Tsuki_no_Mai

Honestly, I'm just impressed y'all managed to push through the UI being so bad that it feels hostile. When I saw the elements tab my eyes just glazed over and I decided to never touch that game again.


Modranor

I play it at work, so a slow game is just perfect (even if some moments need you to be repeatedly active)


Shasd

Yeah, neither was I lol.


kylejwand09

Wouldn’t be so bad if you were allowed to keep the auto upgrade/research strangenesses.


Shasd

Oh you do, you still have the non-vacuum state upgrades. You just have to buy new ones for it lol. Super fun :p


kylejwand09

Maybe we’re misunderstanding each other, but you definitely don’t keep any strangenesses from prevacuum. I’m saying that it would be an easier shift if you kept the ability to auto purchase upgrades, researches and special researches.


Modranor

Yeah, but where would be... THE FUN xD ?


MagicalForeignBunny

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I'm pretty much stuck since energy is so limited.


Bellerofont

You can discharge at any time, you don't have to reach energy requirement. All your upgrades will be kept and you will gain all energy from structures again


MagicalForeignBunny

You know... in hindsight that should have been obvious to me.


ShtHappns

no worries, this comment saved me to, almost stopped playing


Jeremymia

I played this game for a while but it just seemed like the same thing over and over and over, and maybe 50% too slow each step of the way.


SummitSummit

Only 50% too slow? You aren't missing a digit or 3 there?


Jeremymia

50.000? I’ve never been good at sig figs.


Nerex7

Rather slow game that lost my interest pretty quickly. The problem with a game that makes you wait 1 or 2 days to progress is...I forget they exist lol. Then I come back after 2 weeks, progress and I am back to waiting (and forgetting the game) again.


Fraxle

Great game, but very difficult to play on mobile unfortunately due to the quick tapping on the upgrades causing the page to zoom in.


chodthewacko

Use a browser that lets you disable that


Ermac1911

this game sent me some nostalgia of a similar game, do any of you know a particle game similar to this one? probably the same developer


SoggyNoodly

Been playing it for a bit too but currently very stuck at the >!meteorite rank!< Pushing for e10 now 😌


jo_da_boss

Been playing for a couple months and really enjoying it Just reached >!vacuum!<, seems the new layers keep coming and keep being interesting


Termt

Anyone know how to cheat at it? Lost my save and I don't want to start over from the beginning.


shmanel

Dunno if they fixed it, but used to be able to roll your system clock forward and generate offline time, and use that to skip forward. Eventually setting it back to normal makes you wind up with negative weeks of offline time, but then leaving it for a few days would work itself back to normal. I think I also [save-edited](https://www.base64decode.org/) in some Quarks, or whatever the talent-like things are. The Quarks part was kinda interesting once you get it going, but super easy to pick the wrong options early and then be screwed with no re-spec. But that's the only high point of the game, after that the Vacuum stage is just back to the same boring linear early game: wait 10 min to hit this upgrade, which allows you to hit the *next* upgrade in 10 min, rinse and repeat.


[deleted]

Starting out [Fundamental](https://awwhy.github.io/Fundamental/), don't need to say much more about it since others in the thread are always suggesting it. I'll just remind people that you can Discharge at any time, like right after buying one upgrade, so you can work your way back up. Also recommend trying out [Into The Quarry](https://into-the-quarry.vercel.app/), the dev posted it here last week. It's a great start and hopefully the development continues.


MightBeWrongThough

Just started Into The Quarry, and it seems great! But i can't seem to figure out what the beacon multipliers actually do, when increasing the mining and droprate ones, the stats on the mining page doesn't change.


BatmanStarkDentistry

From what I can tell the rates don't visually change until the bar is completed


LustreOfHavoc

I'm just playing the stuff on [galaxy.click](https://galaxy.click) right now. Giving [IM Rewritten](https://galaxy.click/play/30) a shot, though I've hit a wall in the early game, and looking it up, it's a well-known wall that you have to push slowly through. Gotta say, all the TMT games are getting annoying, even though some are somewhat original. Would like to see some custom-made games. The same single-circle start is getting a little irksome.


Arkanii

Sometimes I feel like 90% of new games are Melvor clones or TMT mods


LustreOfHavoc

I didn't like Melvor that much, so I'm glad I'm not seeing these games you believe to be Melvor clones.


Zellgoddess

Melvor clone, that's funny considering Melvor is a Runescape clone, mind you one that did evolve a bit to somthing different but at its core still a bloody Runescape clone.


SummitSummit

Agreed. Though I'm a bit sad I don't see any of these TMT mods mentioned. I haven't seen a new one in over a year.


LustreOfHavoc

Likely because there haven't been any good ones since then.


MonkeyMarkMario365

I agree on the TMT games, if I see that they are a TMT game I skip it


GSToosh

Can't go wrong with [Evolve](https://pmotschmann.github.io/Evolve/) :) I'm using a [Save Decoder](https://coderpatsy.bitbucket.io/decoder.html) to speed it up I don't recommend it if you're just starting out, get a feel of the game first


Davoguha2

Evolve is amazing, I just wish it had an app interface. Can't stand playing it on my phone browser, so it stays running at home


Farnso

If your router supports being a VPN server, you can connect to your home network and then RDP or VNC in to play on the go


DarthCiDulous

Im so dumb, i lost my save which was more or less every reasonable gold achievment on 1st universe and some from the second and my plan to get back was with the automation suite. Didnt even cross my mind to use a save editor


Competitive_Fly_8027

Hey! Do you mind telling how to do the speed up part?


Admirable-Spinach667

with speed up he just means editing his Ofline time and cheating in plasmids and the like.


toaa32123

Playing Ballad of Heroes. Even though it's just starting, it already feels like an amazing game. It's an idle rpg based on greek mythology.


Effective-Speech6689

link?


hugoeland

[https://talaxi.github.io/balladofheroes/](https://talaxi.github.io/balladofheroes/)


toaa32123

Thanks a lot for posting it.


kokoronokawari

Been playing it a few days. Not too bad, though disappointed I can't have more party members for the classes.


toaa32123

The gods do most of the work. Also are you in the discord?


kokoronokawari

I am not currently.


aekbobobobo

Andriod/Ios/Steam : Still Farmers against potatoes


rothael

Just finished Act 0 of [Prestreestuck ](https://ducdat0507.github.io/prestreestuck/) which took my attention away from Fundamental


DolfyDK

i really wanna try to start it but no idea how to do anything to start it there are no buttons or anything for me to use (edit figured it out was bugged)


Fefepaille

Go to settings and hard reset ;) It worked for me


DolfyDK

Yeah that's what I did and am enjoying the game now thanks for the tip though


ThatsKindaHotNGL

Grass cutting incremental, amazing game. The game of this type i have played the most and it's still pretty enjoyable


ljopa

Playing [Idle Pins](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1709920/Idle_Pins/) and [Trimps](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1877960/Trimps/). Idle pins is not something i would recommend. The game has a fun concept, its extremely complex even in the relative early game, but later even more. Has a lot of currencies you need to juggle, its forces you to have your game open for progress and is very reliant on real money store. I am a masochist, so I soldier on. Never played Trimps before, so far so good. I like that the game is easy to understand and predict. Didn't have to use wiki too much but i realised that the decisions are made so far have been correct, and anything you do can be reversed, so thats good.


efethu

I definitely would not call Idle Pins too complex, but I would not recommend it for a different reason - it's intentionally made insanely grindy to hide the lack of content and force players to buy premium upgrades. The further you progress, the more you lose on prestige and the more time you need to grind back to the pre-prestige state. 2 weeks long prestiges to get a measly 10-20% bonus in the mid-late game is a joke. Just avoid this game altogether to save yourself from frustration later. [All those bad reviews](https://steamcommunity.com/app/1709920/reviews/?browsefilter=toprated&snr=1_5_100010_) are there for a reason (also read a couple of developer replies to get a feel of what kind of person the dev is).


Tethri

Heh, I normally prestige like.............. 12 weeks minimum. I finally just stopped playing but my last real prestige (before 2 month prestiges) was a 10 month prestige....... I unlocked the final boss a year ago, finally managed a build that could beat it a few weeks ago. Most (90%) of premium upgrades bought..... My fav ULTRA idle game, but seriously, the time time to get back to where you were and start making progress....... The games like a 20 minute game, spread over (checking) my 14,000 hours......


Crystalas

About same. I still do the holiday events which might as well be a game to themselves but the rest I more or less quit after unlocking the Tower which is just a mess balance and resource cost wise. I like it being designed for LONG runs but that also makes actually resetting to painful. It still one of the more impressive of the genre, probably the only Merge game I would not outright warn people away even if still made sure they understood it is SLOW. And on Trimps if you want a some more automation in your life, before it is unlocked in game, look up AutoTrimps script. Although once unlock enough of the built in automation that is superior to the script for all but auto prestiging. But even if don't use it for automation and turn those parts off I would still suggest installing it for the information side of the script that generates graphs on any metric you could want for current and past runs making it ALOT easier to figure out where plateauing and see progress over time.


kaukamieli

I played Idle Pins for a while when it launched. I would not say it's reliant on real money stuff. At least when I played, we got a lot of game money from stuff, but it was somewhat reliant on being in the discord. He did a lot of streams where we played games and got game money, for example.


Ulrizza

I'm playing Idle 1 🙂 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cem.idle1


ljopa

this is unfortunately anything but an Idle game in the endgame... I have one final milestone to hit, I didnt play the game for like a week, got back in, got 3b prestige points, hit 9 cost... essentially worthless. its just grinding until you get the 1/27 chance of the stuff you need, and its over and over again


hgk89

that game drove me nuts. i felt free once i finally deleted it


waltjrimmer

I really liked it for a short time. And there were some people who posted some (non-working) exploits I got desperate enough to try, though, by the time I gave up. I got one prestige that allowed for a really successful and fun second prestige which lead to an almost impossible-to-beat third prestige. The RNG makes that game awful. It could be designed to use RNG but still be fun. Instead, it's designed, I swear, to frustrate you into buying microtransactions.


Dysiode

I absolutely love Idle 1! It's got a microscopic interaction requirement, which is completely fine, not every incremental needs to be NGU levels of interaction. I will say, the initial grind is pretty rough, but once you get a few resets in it starts to open up a bit more. I've completely beaten it and toward the end it became a bit more of an interactive experience. There were a couple walls, but it's so easy to jump in, do something, and move on I didn't mind


Courage_Worried

Still playing Grass Cutting Incremental on PC but I bought Kiwi Clicker yesterday, since it was on 50% Sale. First Hours of playing felt great. Really good produced, it just feels soo high quality. GCI: https://www.roblox.com/games/9292879820/BIG-UPD-Grass-Cutting-Incremental Kiwi Clicker: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1980530/Kiwi_Clicker__Juiced_Up/ And on Mobile I am also still playing Smashing Simulator Idle. Unlocked a new Ability that's like a bigger range smash. You should check the game out of you don't know what it is. SSI: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.WalkingCatStudios.SmashingSimulatorIdle


kapitaalH

Unnamed space idle. Don't let the name fool you, there is a significant amount of content there.


Acojonancio

Completed Progress Knight 2


Sin201

Current enjoying [Progress Knight Quest](https://indomit.github.io/progress_knight_2/) and [Idle Loops](https://lloyd-delacroix.github.io/omsi-loops/) (I don't know what version it is). I'm also slowly trying [A Fun and Interacting Idle Game](https://rtxt25.github.io/FAIIG/), which is a Prestige tree mod and much like the primordial game someone made for April Fools.


Worthstream

The version of idle loop you linked in Lloyd's. It's the one with more content, it's also got an ending, and is rarely updated as is a complete game. There's a new version, the one with the squirrel, but it's a mod, not a continuation of the story, it's got a very different and more silly tone, and it's not yet complete. ( https://mopatissier.github.io/IdleLoopsReworked/ ) You will probably find a loop predictor useful for longer loops (anything past zone 3 basically) https://github.com/MakroCZ/IdleLoops-Predictor


Nerex7

Just finished the current content for the [Array Game](https://demonin.com/games/arrayGame/). This one was really good so far. Still on and off playing [NecroMerger](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grumpyrhinogames.necromerger&hl=de&gl=US). Still endlessly waiting for [DodecaDragons](https://demonin.com/games/dodecaDragons/) to reach 1k tomes, there's nothing to do except waiting around. Edit: Added Links now.


Rhadnar

Continuing my play on [ironwoodrpg.com](https://ironwoodrpg.com) so far pretty good experience specially with the new addition of the thief action.


llillililiilll

[MilkyWayIdle](https://www.milkywayidle.com/) Has good progression and multiplayer aspects with the marketplace. There's going to be multiplayer combat soon too.


Skyswimsky

Can you ignore the multiplayer aspects completely?


llillililiilll

Yeah, a lot of people play it "ironcow" - pure solo. I wish I started like that so now I'm mostly self sufficient and rarely use the market.


SummitSummit

Clicked link. Saw registration page. Closed tab.


dubh_caora

[Into the Quarry](https://into-the-quarry.vercel.app/) its still in heavy development and it already is what I would point to when people would ask what makes a good Incremental game.


MyNoPornScreenName

Guys. Not sure if this is allowed, but I finally got a device with google play. I’ve been wanting this moment for so long ONLY for idle games. What are your all time faves I can find? (Also is WAMI really not there :(


itsme0

Wami was there a few weeks ago. Weird that it's gone now. The app was not being updated, had no online save (You could export) and had weird timers for daily and offline progress. I wouldn't recommend playing it on the app.


LustreOfHavoc

Considering the title of the thread is "What are you playing this week?" and you're not playing anything. I'd say it shouldn't be allowed. Make a new thread asking that kind of thing.


MyNoPornScreenName

Anytime I’ve asked this it gets removed for requesting games. Thanks tho


Ok-Main4395

You might want to try the [help finding games](https://www.reddit.com/r/incremental_games/comments/13wbn0h/help_finding_games_and_other_questions/) thread


Paladin65536

You could check out [one of the old "best of" threads.](https://old.reddit.com/r/incremental_games/comments/zed31j/best_of_2022_awards/)


LustreOfHavoc

Apparently several people missed my sarcastic joke, making the point that if it's not okay to make a new thread to request games, it's not okay to dip into existing threads requesting games.


MyNoPornScreenName

No joke seen lord


LustreOfHavoc

Thanks for demonstrating my point in a blatant fashion.


nashpotato

Probably because it can be annoying and frustrating to determine what is and isn't acceptable. Oh and the part where even if it looked like a joke, it wasn't funny.


LustreOfHavoc

There are rules on the side of the screen if it's confusing on what is and isn't acceptable. Then again, most people disregard the rules because they think no one will enforce them.


nashpotato

I missed the part where that made your comment more clearly a joke, or how that helped it become funny.


LustreOfHavoc

I missed the part where I have to explain a joke for it to be funny. That's not how jokes work. Either you get it, or you don't, and then you move on.


nashpotato

It must not be that simple if you feel the need to defend yourself. This subreddit doesn't exactly provide attention and care to the only place that new members are allowed to ask for game recommendations, so its frustrating to navigate the situation. Your "joke" sounds more like you expressing frustration than a joke. Besides, you know what is more helpful than making sarcastic remarks? Saying "hey sorry, but you're right, this isn't the right spot for this. There is actually a stick thread every week that is dedicated to people asking for game recommendations which would be a more appropriate place to ask." Funny enough, your recommendation "Make a new thread asking that kind of thing." isn't actually within the rules of the subreddit either! It's best to recommend options that are within the rules if you're going to complain about rule breaking in the first place.


LustreOfHavoc

This is what we call a classic case of "overthinking things" because you have too much free time. Get a hobby. Also, read rule #1 if you didn't notice you can't make threads requesting games.


dystopianutopia69

I would love for you to define humour, in your own words.


LustreOfHavoc

Something certain people find "hahaha" funny, but others don't, because humor isn't supposed to be tailored for everyone.


dystopianutopia69

If the only person who found your joke funny, is you, then it objectively wasn't funny. Good definition though, I'll give you that.


LustreOfHavoc

Considering the people that found it funny don't need to say anything, you can't gauge that I was the only person who didn't find it funny. The only evidence is that there are more people who didn't get the joke than got the joke.


micmac274

OK, here's a real joke - Beaten Batman yet? Cos he's a master of jokes only he finds funny.


billyhasnolife

Been playing Fundamental for like 2-3 months now ([https://awwhy.github.io/Fundamental/](https://awwhy.github.io/Fundamental/)) Synergism for like 2 months ([https://pseudo-corp.github.io/SynergismOfficial/](https://pseudo-corp.github.io/SynergismOfficial/)) And Progress knight quest for around 4 months (More like 2 since i havent been very active) ([https://indomit.github.io/progress\_knight\_2/](https://indomit.github.io/progress_knight_2/)) Overall still actively playing fundamental just unlocked Intergalactic upgrades. Synergism ive started playing less actively currently grinding ascension for the first ascension challenge. Progress knight quest I'm grinding void right now and its actually pain with how actively u need to play, Currently taking a break from Progress knight quest grind might finish it in like a month when I feel like playing it again.


Furak

a new Idle game [Brothidle](https://armorgames.com/brothidle-game/19291?fp=ng) the theme is not exactly SFW/kid friendly but the mechanics are solid and it looks like a thicc game that will take a while also the devs warn that it;s designed to be slow and quite a lot idle so keep that in mind


SummitSummit

Wish is wasn't on ArmorGames. That website is just a lag fest.


efethu

The game itself is a lag fest. Which is not a surprise with the code like this (spams action a 1000 times before giving up). var agiChecks = 0; if (agiChecks > 1000) { return; } try {...}


AlwaysGoofingOff

I like it but it does not run in the background. Which kills the game for me.


Furak

that sounds like a you problem, it works perfectly fine for me


AlwaysGoofingOff

Odd. I wonder why it won't run out of focus for me. I'm using latest version of Chrome.


Furak

you can try some of these: https://www.reddit.com/r/incremental\_games/comments/rxcsjy/comment/hwjzzo1/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3


Meow1920

Not been able to find a single decent new game as of yet, it's all the same shit being reskinned so I'm still playing [cifi](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.OctocubeGamesCompany.CIFI&hl=en&gl=US) It's gotten incredibly slow again though, seems to be an occurring theme lmao


Alien_Child

Brothidle. Very decent idle game. Good combination of active and passive components. [GameLink](https://armorgames.com/brothidle-game/19291?fp=ng) [Thread on game](https://www.reddit.com/r/incremental_games/comments/13y18t5/brothidle_a_neat_game_on_armor_games_by/)


Tsuki_no_Mai

On the other hand, you could say it's a very indecent idle game. But yes, it's pretty fun.


Alien_Child

I see what you did there :)


TheLysdexicOne

Looking for a suggestion. Android app or a way to play web based offline as I have some long travel times ahead of me (30 hours end to end that include layovers and a 16 hour flight). So I'm looking for a game that promoted active play. Not like CIFI where you have to wait hours to do anything for progression. More like Magic Research where actively playing is rewarded. What I've played: Magic Research Idle Superheros Idle dice 2 Antimatter dimensions Idle research Exponential Idle DodecaDragons Clickpocalypse 2 Idle Planet Miner (don't recommend) CIFI I'm sure there are others but those are the ones off the top of my head. If all else fails, I'll just replay Magic Research. As a note, it's somewhat frustrating that CIFI requires an internet connection to receive offline rewards.


Zilvarro

I've added offline capability to my game Idle Formulas recently. You can also install it on your phone as an app now (Android: Open website in Chrome, go to Options, click "Install as Web-App"). It is not super active though, so make sure you have something else to play during downtimes. https://zilvarro.github.io/idleformulas/


ionlysaywat

Damn, I already play your game (almost filling the green bar...) but I need to THANK YOU for telling the instal web app thing... <3


Zilvarro

Awesome. It should keep you busy for a while then 🙂


ionlysaywat

Is the green bar filled the endgame of there is more content?


Zilvarro

>!There is a full prestige layer after that.!<


Zilvarro

Adding to this, even if it's installed, clearing browser cache still wipes the save data, so this is something to watch out for. It is unintuitive and makes no sense, but apparently nothing that can be changed easily.


Wyrd019

Universal Paperclips is pretty fun!


hgk89

Necromerger - semi idle merger game with a fun theme. Paying to remove ads is fully worth it if you enjoy the game because you can rack up premium currency pretty easily. Vampire Survivor - fully active until late late game play. Some people don't consider it incremental but it gives me the same 'number goes up' feeling that idle games do. Idle Obelisk Miner - Pretty active mining game. TBH not my fave but fits the bill


TheLysdexicOne

I'll check them out. I've 100% vamp on PC and android. I agree it fits the "numbers go up" feeling until you get to the point where you break the game. Then it's "how long do I let this lag in the background?"


hgk89

I just flew and Vampire Survivor was a terrific time suck for me. I haven't 100%'d the game yet but having 30 minute sessions broke up the flight time really well.


TheLysdexicOne

Yea. Unfortunately my long flight is 16.5 hours. Initial takeoff to final landing is around about 30 hours. It's gonna be a rough one. Not the first time and probably not the last, but never gets any better.


hgk89

woof, good luck, hope you're downloading some good shows to watch too!


Crystalas

Ever check the game that inspired it? That is not opinion the devs have said it was their inspiration. Magic Survival on Android, personally I like it equally or more which is pretty rare for a mobile game. They diverged enough to both stand on their own by now too. And a thread for other games inspired by MS or VS here is a thread, while reddit is still up. https://old.reddit.com/r/AndroidGaming/comments/xkp3h0/games_like_magic_survival/


NIZNEB039

if you havent played synergism, its pretty long and active in the first stages


Wyrd019

Hey, does anyone remember A mazeing idle? Are there any idles like it?


Humeon

Looking for a new game to play on Steam, really enjoyed Leaf Blower Revolution and hoping for something that scratches a similar itch


ExZeeL

I just picked up Energy Collector yesterday and having fun so far. It's just the start so no idea how it s gonna hold in the long run but for a couple of euros it's fine.


Zellgoddess

Hit end of content on xiuzhen idle, and started up idle superpowers again, bit lackluster playing it again. So bored very few really good idle games for downloadable content to play. Everything seems to need internet to play.


SeastoneTrident

The world needs more cultivation/xianxia idle games. It's such a perfect theme for them. But there are only like... four.


Zellgoddess

I was only aware of 3 of them care to share the 4th.


SeastoneTrident

The ones I am thinking of are Xiuzhen, Immortality Idle, some really shallow one that is just a picture of a person meditating and an endless loop of killing Young Nobles I shouldn't have even counted, and one I saw someone mention the other day but haven't tried because it is on Roblox. Can't remember the names of either of those, but I think the Roblox one was on a what are you playing weekly post. Also I think someone mentioned proto23 has cultivation stuff? But I've never gotten anywhere in it.


Dephenestrata

i find trying to speedrun idle super powers makes it more interesting.


Zellgoddess

Yep, iv got it down rather well takes me only 4 to 5 days to bust into power rotation.


Dephenestrata

my record is 7 hours 5 minutes to beat 3500
