955 Idle & Incremental games reviewed and scored, best first.
955 reviews
A creature-collecting idle RPG in the mould of Dragon Cliff, with genuine long-term fans and steady ongoing support, undercut by extensive, still-unfixed English localization gaps and a progression curve several reviewers describe as balanced around leaving the game running for entire days at a time.
5 / 10
A cheap, genuinely relaxing idle-clicker farm-decorating hybrid that saw a real burst of active development through 2021 before going quiet — and a specific, unresolved crash bug that more recent reviews say still ends long sessions without warning.
5 / 10
A charming incremental city-building RPG that launched into Early Access with real promise and genuine early support, then went quiet after one substantial update -- reviewed here from a small but complete sample that shifts, year by year, from excited to abandoned.
5 / 10
A short, vintage-cartoon-styled clicker that borrows a rubbery 1930s animation look with real charm, sold as an "infinity idle clicker" despite an unchecked Auto Progress option and at least one reviewer's report that it offers no real offline earning at all.
5 / 10
A charming desktop-widget archer-vs-goblins clicker with a genuinely fast first 11 days of patches, followed by six-plus weeks of silence while later reviewers call the post-patch endgame empty and its 99 achievements padding rather than content.
5 / 10
A NZ$1.43 pixel-art clicker about tapping a gold bar, buying pickaxes and mine carts across six palette-swapped regions, and running two short bonus minigames — checked a week after launch, with no prestige loop found anywhere in its own achievement list.
5 / 10
The browser half of the Hero Wars split — the same hero collector as the mobile app, but with more systems, an older audience, and a payment rail that hands nothing to Apple or Google. It is the most transparently commercial version of one of the most commercial games in the genre, and it is also, on the merits, the better-built one.
5 / 10
A cheap, dark-fantasy idle loot game with a genuinely deep equipment system and a satisfying hands-off combat loop, undercut at launch by a broken skill-point mechanic, power scaling that several reviewers say trivializes the game within hours, and a rebirth system that strips your gear.
5 / 10
A NZ$5.99 xianxia-styled idle action-RPG almost nobody reviews in English — 95 of its 98 Steam reviews are Chinese, several from players with 200-plus hours reporting the game losing their entire save, on a title whose developer has spent the last two years promoting a newer game through this one's own news feed instead of patching it.
5 / 10
An "Excel RPG Idler" With a Wyvern Problem Idle Keep sets out its premise fast: wyverns have raided your keep and stolen the Kingdom's Light, draining its magic, and
5 / 10
A free-to-play idle RPG about farming, fishing and fighting for scrap, released by solo developer blevsoft in December 2023 and left without a content update since January 2024.
5 / 10
A free-to-play sci-fi idler in ongoing Early Access since October 2023, built as an authorised spiritual successor to Idle Space Raider and Transport Defender, undercut by a prestige loop that pays out less on every reset and a store-page offline-progress promise several reviewers say doesn't hold up.
5 / 10
A NZ$5.99 idle cultivation RPG sequel that dropped nine of its predecessor's ten interface languages — English included — while adding a stock-speculation minigame and a gacha "prayer bead" pull; Mixed across 68 reviews, against the original's Very Positive 84%.
5 / 10
A free solo-developer idle sim about running a weapon shop, prestiging into a town, and sending adventurers out to die for profit — a genuinely distinctive premise undercut by a near-total absence of tutorial explanation and two separate multi-month stretches where updates simply stopped.
5 / 10
IdleWrecker is an idle action-RPG from the Chinese studio 棱镜工作室 (Prism Studio), released on Steam on 22 June 2026 with the tagline "a Diablo-inspired idle loot game." Rat
5 / 10
A NZ$8.99 solo-developed idle cultivation RPG that reviewers repeatedly call "a cut-price Melvor Idle in xianxia clothing" — Mixed across 87 reviews, with a strong 2025 run undone by a dead-quiet Early Access: no update since 11 June 2025, and its own Steam interface page marks English support as "Not supported," which is why not one of those 87 reviews is in English.
5 / 10
PlayFlock's free asylum-horror clicker still has real atmosphere and a genuinely distinct art direction, but its own player base has spent a decade reporting the exact same progression wall around level 2000, and nobody at the studio has touched it since 2020.
5 / 10
A solo-developer clicker that grafts a Vampire Survivors-style build-picking loop onto the "just mash a button" premise, earning real praise for its opening run before this review's sample converges on the same complaint from multiple angles — the fun evaporates fast, RNG frustrates, and support stopped within weeks of launch.
5 / 10
A free-to-play sci-fi idle game split almost exactly down the middle, with "AI slop" the single most repeated word in its negative reviews — and a store-page disclosure confirming AI tools were used across art, writing and UI text, rather than leaving that complaint unverified.
5 / 10
A roguelite auto-battler that launched broken enough to soft-lock in its own tutorial, dug out over sixteen patches in under three weeks — including one that fixed that exact freeze.
5 / 10
A tiny desktop companion about a deer tending her meadow, praised for its cozy charm but criticised for running out of content in a single afternoon.
5 / 10
A free clicker-RPG hybrid with real equipment-crafting depth behind the big damage numbers, whose own developer has now documented, in public and in unusually plain language, why it launched rocky, never recovered, and was abandoned nine months later.
5 / 10
A pocket-sized desktop idler about stocking shelves and laying carpet to draw in more customers, charming enough as background company for other tasks but thin enough that several reviewers finish everything the game has to offer within a handful of hours.
5 / 10
Read review of My Tiny Grocery Store - Desktop Idle Supermarket Game
An idle game built around a genuinely clever hook, clearing increasingly improbable challenges like matching cards or rolling every die the same, undercut by a passive upgrade loop, a reward-piling bug, and permanent upgrades several reviewers say stop scaling with difficulty.
