I never write reviews but I like this game too much to leave it with barely any English reviews! There are a lot of idle games on the app store that don’t really separate themselves from the pack, but this game has a few aspects that make it more appealing than the others: - Good Writing - Helpful Interface/Tooltips - Interesting Prestige System Writing: This game has writing that is funny, goofy, and full of heart. Bad idle games often eventually feel like you’re just watching numbers go up so writing is crucial for making you feel like you’re actually interested in making the character better. Even translated into English the writing still works. Helpful Interface: This game goes out of its way to make sure that all of the features are well explained, and it is easy to tap on things to get information and explanations about how they work. I hate when games have a bunch of icons and features that they never tell you what they mean. Prestige System: It has a nice mixture of things that you lose and keep that makes prestiging actually worthwhile IF ANYONE IS HAVING TROUBLE WITH ATTENDANCE/GIFTS DUE TO GAME CENTER LOGIN: I went into my iphone settings and saw that I had game center disabled, when I enabled it and logged into game center all those feature started working for me

Ok, maybe it’s not that great, but it’s right up there. It’s got your typical idle things, upgrade hero, artifacts, and powers to get to higher floors. Yet, somehow it feels like he really got it right when he made this game. There is a strategy here that is rarely seen, a humor that’s sprinkled throughout the game, and, as is obvious with this last update, that respecting the fan base is a priority. I mean, there’s this little button that you use all the time that was recently added, but it was in a really odd place. People didn’t like the placement and suggested a better place for it. A week later an update comes out to fix it. So, does that matter? Not really, but it shows the commitment to giving a game to the players that they really want to play. But seriously, thank you for moving that button.

Wow where do I start. I have run the gauntlet of playing idles and increments on the App Store as well as PC. When I started Mr. Kim I was a bit taken aback by the number of menus, currencies, and things I didn’t understand quickly. However, this is one of the games many strengths. Where as most idle games’ feedback loop is quick to learn and progression soon becomes an endless non-evolving quest for higher numbers. Mr. Kim still has me unlocking new content several months in. The balance between what there is to do each day, the currency types, and the multiple avenues of power progression feels immaculate and has kept me playing longer than any other of the genre.
