Definitely a nice time waster, I feel the need to check it daily to see how my little machines are going, and I can just sit there and watch the def ragging go as well! Overall it does its job as an idle game superbly

Good incremental game, my one complaint is the names of upgrades are a little weird. Total frags is the name of both the one that increases the total frags and the one that increases frags per second. I just recommend putting frags/s as the name of the per second one to avoid confusion. Took me a bit to figure out what they did. They only show the actual name like frag increase and frags per second once you have fully bought all the upgrades for that level

Simple but solid idle game. Nostalgic. There might be more to it than one page of things to buy, or there might not. Either way, I paid the three dollars and change for a permanent doubler to help support these guys.

Better comes up with click than waiting idle. 18 achievements with low - high exp. High exp need a lot of time to dedicate and wait.

Unclear what this is. Not a defray but passes it off as a game and hard to shut off, with silly music upon startup.
★☆☆☆☆Victor Westphal· Nov 9, 2023
Very repetitive. Upgrades do less than simply resetting and saving points. The grind ramps up really quick, and it takes weeks to do something, but leads nowhere.
★★☆☆☆Mark Greenham· Aug 31, 2021
Game runs well, simple though. Upgrades feel like they do almost nothing. Advancing seems to come from not spending any of the prestige points. Even if you're really far and stay spending then the next prestige reward drops so much is was pointless. Feel the game dynamic is broken. I've been for over a month, and probably only because offline feature works well otherwise I'd be uninstalling.
