About The Big Number

BREACH THE FIREWALLS

As you progress, powerful firewalls block your path—each requiring millions to quintillions of damage to defeat. These aren't just obstacles; they're major progression gates that unlock permanent multipliers. Attack them through:
  • Manual Clicks - Your primary damage source
  • Security Nodes - Red pulsing critical hit nodes that deal 5% of firewall HP instantly
  • Brute Force RAM - Automated attacks that chip away at firewalls over time

PRESTIGE

When progress slows, reset your run to gain Entropy—a prestige currency that unlocks permanent upgrades. Each prestige grants increasing bonuses, and you can spend Entropy on powerful upgrades like:
  • Production multipliers (2x, 5x, and beyond)
  • Click power amplifiers (3x, 10x, and more)
  • Starting RAM bonuses
  • Firewall damage amplifiers
  • Offline earning boosts

RAM MANAGEMENT

Allocate your RAM across 7 different processes:
  • Mining - Boost auto-generation up to 10x
  • Brute Force - Auto-attack firewalls up to 4x damage
  • Cooling - Reduce heat generation up to 50%
  • Decryption - Multiply click power up to 5x
  • Virtualization - Generate Entropy passively (capped at 100/s)
  • Compression - Reduce upgrade costs up to 80%
  • Click Boost - Amplify click power up to 200%

FARM FOR BOOSTS

Plant crops that grow over time and harvest Data Points, used to:
  • Purchase temporary boosts (production, click power and more)
  • Unlock advanced crops with better yields
  • Upgrade boost effectiveness
  • Expand your farm with more crop slots

✦ AI summary

Players praise this incremental game for being quick to complete, accessible, and polished, with nice art style and quality-of-life features that enhance the experience. The main appeal is straightforward mechanics that lead to fast achievement completion in a few hours, though some find the brevity limiting and one player found a specific boss mechanic (temporary number reduction) slightly frustrating.

Good quick incremental game. 100% achievements in a little over 3 hours for me, can definitely do it faster if you stay at your PC the whole time. There are some things to do in-game after getting all achievements as well.

This game was fun! Short but cool. The boss fights making my numbers smaller temporarily made me kinda sad, but that's okay
