✦ AI summary

Idle Skilling is an addictive, chill idle game that appeals to players looking for a relaxing experience, though some find it too grindy even by idle game standards and report that the appeal fades over time. The game's low-engagement gameplay works well as a side distraction for certain players, but those seeking meaningful progression or variety may lose interest quickly.

Where is the settings screen ? Where is the exit button ? Nuff said.

Came from the moblie version, which is a blast. Played this game for a LONG while until they added minions and ruined the entire games balancing. Get this game if you want but its an insane money grab, honestly more pay to play than pay to win. And the balancing is crud

at the end of the day, it's an idle game, it's free, it's paced well enough to keep coming back to, and you don't have to pay to get gems. in my books, that's an easy win

Very confusing. No idea what I'm supposed to be doing in the first 5 mins since last I played. There are better idlers that are more straight forward. Not for me.

Idle Skilling takes the usual idle formula and packs it with an impressive number of interconnected systems. Mining, fishing, crafting, combat and pet breeding constantly feed into your progression, giving you plenty of goals to chase even when you're only checking in for a few minutes.

If you got a kick out of IdleOn, then this game is a super cool bit of dev history.
