I am always happy to spend a flat amount of money, especially on a game like this, rather than MTX. That said, this game is absolutely worth the price. Many many different synergies, party compositions, weapons, armors, trinkets, etc. to craft. You can min/max or just let stuff roll in and it still feels excellent to play. Interesting rebirth mechanic as well as a very fair offline timer that you can use one minute up to your entire stash of offline time at once. I keep this running on an iPad Pro m2 on a magnetic stand above my iMac and I tend to play both idle and active. Seems like theirs progression to be had either way. I have probably 40 hours of active gameplay and still haven’t unlocked all of the submenus. Very good stuff and an easy recommendation.
I was skeptical of spending money on an idle game, but the game turned out to be a lot of fun. The art and music are nice too.
The game is fantastic, the only thing it could use is a help menu that better explains some aspects of the game. There’s an initial tutorial as you unlock aspects of the game, but there’s a lot of overlapping systems and it’ll be helpful to have a menu explaining the different currencies, their uses, and how to acquire them.
