The Braves

A free-to-play Vampire Survivors-style bullet-heaven whose genuinely fun opening hours are widely praised, before a large, remarkably consistent negative-review consensus describes a punishing grind wall and aggressive gacha monetization that Steam's own promotional feed for the game — almost entirely sale and summon-banner announcements — directly corroborates.

Eclipsia Review

A Team-Builder Idle RPG Behind a Free-to-Play Front Door Eclipsia is a free-to-play idle RPG built around assembling a roster of gacha-summoned heroes, sending up to three of them

Idle Big Devil

A competent, aggressively monetised gacha idle RPG that ran for almost four years — until the developer shut its servers down for good on 31 July 2025 and deleted every account. It can no longer be bought, downloaded or played.

Idle Wuxia Heroes

A cheap, wuxia-themed idle hero collector that reads to reviewers as an unfinished half-product, with a shared-equipment system that kills build variety and a persistent worry that it launched and then went quiet.

Crazy Oddballs: Idle RPG

A googly-eyed hot dog and an avocado in a cape are stapled onto what is, underneath, an off-the-shelf gacha MMO engine — VIP passes, loot-box "Treasure Hunts" and all — and the comedy skin does nothing to soften a monetisation stack aggressive enough that its own review score is now under public dispute.

Dragons Frolic! Review

A cozy, solo-developed idle game about buying, breeding, and racing collectible pixel dragons on a second monitor, whose small but consistently charmed review sample flags a developer-acknowledged eye-strain bug in the racing minigame and a near year-long silence since its last patch.

Endless World Idle RPG

A polished, gacha-style 3D idle RPG with real PvP, guilds and co-op dungeons that kept a genuine weekly patch cadence for over two years before falling silent — and has since been pulled from sale entirely, leaving its social features to a small, thinning player base that its own reviewers describe as feeling emptier than advertised.

Ministry of Stoic Review

A short, chill management game about smuggling gacha-collected 'cute-ware' past an anti-aesthetics regime from behind a ramen stall front, praised by its small early audience for its striking premise, calming loop, and refreshing lack of real-money monetisation.

Star Trek Legends

An officially licensed, gacha-collector Star Trek RPG that broke from mobile-genre norms by charging one fair upfront price instead of selling microtransactions, earning real goodwill from its own community — before the publisher announced in July 2026 that the entirely online-dependent game will be delisted 20 August 2026 and fully shut down 3 September 2026.

Annulus

A free-to-play dark-fantasy tactics gacha with a genuinely interesting merge-based class system arrives buried under chaotic multilingual localization, aggressive monetisation, and a review sample repeatedly and specifically alleging bought positive reviews.

Conqueror's Blade: Three Kingdoms

Booming Tech's own developer FAQ promised this would not be a standalone game and would build on existing Conqueror's Blade characters. It shipped a week ago as a separate free Steam app with its own client, a gacha wall in front of core unit progression, and no siege matchmaking at launch — and 15% of roughly 1,950 Steam reviews are positive.

Goblin VS Princess Review

A cheap, reincarnation-driven idle RPG about a goblin repeatedly dying and rebirthing to grow strong enough to topple a series of princess bosses, whose large Chinese-language-majority review base consistently praises its collectible art and humour while raising real, specific concerns about shallow build depth, tedious manual upkeep, and one detailed allegation of inflated review counts.

Monster Tamer

A generically titled creature-collector RPG whose own Steam DLC catalogue verifies a pay-to-win structure — pre-leveled Legendary monsters and permanent EXP boosters sold separately on top of a NZ$21.99 base price — reviewed on an almost nonexistent early audience whose own achievement data shows essentially no one progressing past the tutorial.

Pipkin Review

Gregdude's Kickstarter-funded Halloween-themed monster collector, a Pokemon-meets-SMT RPG set in the cozy settlement of New Haven, whose Mostly Positive review sample praises genuinely striking creature and world design undercut by a baffling absence of basic quality-of-life features, no controller support, and a story that several reviewers say stops abruptly.

Little Aquarium Review

A charming desktop-companion idle game about raising and gacha-collecting pixel fish, undercut at launch by a save system that repeatedly failed to persist progress between sessions -- a bug the developer claimed to fix within days, but which reviewers kept reporting for months afterward.
