Coin Hoarder

I’m very carefully going to give this a borderline thumbs up, though it’s more of a neutral review, but Steam isn’t giving us that option, so I must choose. And I don’t have strong negative feelings towards the game, therefore I don’t see the need to give it a thumbs down. I don’t hate it, just slightly dislike it, while still having fun and joy out of it. Yeah, that sounds weird, doesn’t it? Let me explain, for me, it was an addictive experience, and I can honestly say I binge played the living frek out of it. From mostly clicking, to keeping an ear open for power-ups, to sometimes letting it idle or run offline- although I would more call this a clicker or an active idle game rather than truly idle idle, nevertheless, I sped through, up, down, left and right in every way, shape and form. True addiction, I guess, to keep upgrading, to keep opening ascension nodes, to keep pushing it a little bit further every time… But I still consider it a mixed bag since there were points I wasn’t so fond of. The mini games are one of them. Not only do I have to swap out my keyboard from azerty to qwerty since its layout bound rather than the position of the keys, I also feel the moment it sta…

Update: The recent balance changes helped the early game somewhat. Still takes a long time, but its more manageable. The game is still 100% reliant on RNG of getting multiple buffs to ascend. The new issue is the endgame, it scales your money down so fast that buying enough of each of the generators to get achievements done is going to be impossible. Also add on that we added MTX that actually buff you in game for some reason. The game already has AI generated assets I assume these are as well yet we're expected to pay for them. And they are half the cost of the game itself, while not a lot silly to add before fixing the issues in game and even worse to let them have actual gameplay buffs even if minor. At this point I don't think the game will ever be worth recommending. Its a decent enough first try at a game though. Maybe next time. Original: If there was middling review, I'd put it there. Its okay, it scratches the itch of being an idle game. But it is way to slow to get going. There are also 0 tool tips to explain anything, except on the Ascension tree. It takes ages to get your first ascension, which is done by the coins filling up the background. Then the minor upgrade…

this game is every idle game enthusiasts dream! simple,easy to play and the numbers go up LOVE IT

Strangely addicting game! Suddenly I noticed I’ve played for hours. Gotta have one more ascension before bed! There’s something magical about watching those coins pile up, not just from your clicks but from every beggar, miner, alchemist you unlock. Every upgrade feels like a proper payoff – especially when ascension resets everything, but you come back stronger.

Game demands your time. Too many restriction put on the player to drawn out the play time. Restricted to 2 hrs offline. Who the hell wants to log in every 2 hours? Max 3 ascension points, after that you get hit with a penalty to cps, the more ascension points you try to get, the higher the penalty. Ascend, get another 3, so forth, each time you ascend you of course start over again. Get enough, you can get a upgrade and do it all over again. I'm somewhere around 15-25 ascension points required for upgrade. Here and there you might get a bonus multiplier for a short while. For the arcade, you must be instantly ready to play, a, d to move and w to shoot. Does not recognize any keyboard extenders, so can only use the keyboard. Gets boring, repetitve, and stale doing the same thing over and over. I have no desire to play this.

I played this back in beta, and now with the full release I can safely say: this game is dangerously addictive. Every click, every upgrade, every prestige keeps me hooked for “just one more run.” All that clicking has given me forearms like a bodybuilder. For the price it’s a no-brainer. Now if only there was a mobile version, I’d never stop hoarding.
