Fun idle game but the endgame is pretty sluggish. 7/10

Started out just dropping a few balls, and now I'm micro-managing a whole gravity and density empire for meta-energy. It’s simple, free, and incredibly addicting once it clicks. 10/10.

I like it, but this NO idle game by any stretch. You have to be very active.

I have to say I have enjoyed my 90 minutes in the game so far. I've been engaged that entire time. Watching the balls bounce is both surprisingly and not surprisingly entertaining. Definitely a good incremental game. Not sure what mid game holds, or what the game is like after prestige-ing. I am about 25% of the way to the point where they recommend popping it for the first time. But so far it's good for a free game. Yes it has optional things you can buy with money; some type of 'currency' you buy for $ then spend. It's not intrusive to the gameplay and that's what is important. Give it a try.

I would love to give this a thumbs up, but it seems very broken. Not bugs, but after two resets the progression slows to a level that you just cannot progress!. Up to the first reset I was enjoying it. Next reset took a little time to reach, but an expected slog. Third reset I haven't reached as progression is way too slow. Offline doesn't count for much as you can have the balls bouncing for days, but the bar has strict limits that do not match. A good idle game just badly scaled. I was enjoying it, but realised that having this much difficulty progressing at this early stage, it is not going to get any better. Time to uninstall.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.

Toxic Commando Game Pass: subscribe, or buy the key?

The Toxic Commando Game Pass add landed on 12 November. Our price record since late September shows the key route barely moved, which changes what a subscription is worth.

Titanfall 2's campaign changed its own rules every mission. Games like Titanfall 2 that keep one part of it — the wall-running, the mech, or a campaign that never settles.

Games like Frostpunk for anyone who misses the Book of Laws more than the cold: the sequel's factions, a besieged house, beaver droughts, a drifting ark and the template it came from.
