I recently played through universal Paperclips. It was okay, looking for more to try.

I haven’t found/heard of a good, meaty new game in a while. Recetly I’ve dug back into Leaf Blower Revolution but like a lot of incremental games it eventually devolves into having very specific strategies or goals.

I have quite enjoyed Synergism in the past, as well as Wizard and Minion Idle and NGU.

It’s not a type of game I often play, but I enjoyed Kittens game a lot. And space plan, while not super long, was also really enjoyable

+1 for Space Plan

Trimps. I’m hopelessly addicted.

Damn you…

Been playing Melvor Idle, really great one that replicates old school runescape’s Skilling experience as an idle game. I also enjoy Impossible Dungeon quite a bit as well, top down auto dungeon crawler where you earn points to upgrade and customize a party for getting as far down a dungeon as you can and competing with other players in tournaments and dailies.

Melvor Idle is great. I’ve been playing it for almost two months now and like it, even though I never played Runescape.

Am I looking at the right thing? Melvor Idle is $10 on Steam? Is there a free version somewhere? I find it hard to imagine paying that much for an idle game. I paid $2 for Space Plan but $10?? I just… this can’t be right.

What’s the endorphin rush like for this game? OG RuneScape player, so I know getting the next tool or tree type but not sure how just having a stats screen gives the same kinda feeling?

A lot of people like Melvor so it must be doing something right :)

Stone story has been great fun.

Is there one that is server Based where it is not possible to manipulate your save state?

I enjoyed a dark room

Eh, if one of the better incrementals is only ok to you, I’m not sure if you want to try more of the genre.

NGU Idle is the greatest idle game to ever exist. It simply cannot be beaten. It’s free on Steam.

I recently restarted cookie clicker. Big mistake

Anti-Idle: The Game is one of my all-time favourites. It’s got a ton of sub-games and some really interesting resource flows between them. And as per the title you can idle or not, but there are rewards for active play.

Prosperous Universe is quite different from a typical incremental game, but it scratches the same itch for me. The game is very complex, and other players drive the economy, leading to some price/availability unpredictability that is interesting. Gotta keep your bases fueled, but you also want to wait for prices to rise or fall, and potentially use your ships to trade at other markets.

It’s quite nonlinear in progression and there’s a lot of ways to expand.
