i am truly insane about idle games
right now i've been playing cell: idle factory incremental and it's a REALLY long one but that's just what i want rn.
my absolute favorite is not actually what i'd call an idle game, but instead what i'd call the only actual incremental game in the entire world? it's called Increlution and it's currently unfinished, but it's got a free demo and it's just like... sooooo fucking peak. ticks every box in my diseased little head. highly recommend at least checking out the demo, but keep in mind that the demo only shows off the basic mechanics. every chapter after the first builds on them in increasingly interesting ways
as for actual idle games though, my favorites are mostly pretty standard. Antimatter Dimensions, Revolution Idle, Realm Grinder (haven't played that one in like a decade lol), Melvor Idle... the Magic Research games are both pretty interesting. I hadn't expected the second one to be a worthwhile sequel but it's honestly such a huge improvement, but I'd still recommend the first one.
thank you for this thread, i never would've been brave enough to make it lmfao
