Dopamine Eggs

A next-generation clicker where every single upgrade unlocks its own minigame -- an RPG mage adventure, a collectible card battler built from the developer's own 20-year back catalogue of Flash games, and egg-fusion alchemy -- launched 6 August 2026 to a small but unanimously enthusiastic reception, with reviewers already flagging early balance rough edges.

Fidget Spinner RPG

A NZ$5.99 idle RPG that dresses an 11-skill crafting-and-progression system up as a joke about spinning a fidget spinner impossibly fast, from a solo developer who patched constantly through Early Access and then went almost completely silent after the September 2023 1.0 launch.

Garden Galaxy

A cheap, IAP-free idle-meets-gacha garden decorator that four years of Steam reviews agree on in an unusual way -- the exact randomised-drop system that makes it distinctive is also the thing that eventually wears players down.

Goldhaven

A solo-developed roguelike from Istanbul that turns career survival into a weekly trading floor — clear your student debt or get walked out, across three branching story threads and nine endings, for a one-time NZ$9.99.

Greedy Greedy Gnomes

A satirical clicker-idle RPG about smashing pots, hiring gnome labour and sacrificing employees to demonic forces for profit -- a cheap, short, genuinely funny incremental that launched 12 August 2026 with one very literal broken-save bug and a repetitive prestige loop underneath the jokes.

Leafy Corner

A plant shop sim so pleasant that almost nobody has a bad word for it — and so short that the people praising it keep mentioning they finished everything in four hours. Lovely, cheap, and about three systems away from being something you'd still be playing next month.

MECCHA CHAMELEON

Paint your own body to match the wall you're standing against, then hold still while the seeker walks past. A solo developer's ten-dollar hide-and-seek game has collected 79,000 reviews in eight weeks — and a genuine security story that anyone installing it should read first.

Monotony Idle

A three-day-old Early Access idle RPG that runs thirteen separate skill trackers off one RuneScape-flavoured template, lets you train two of them at once, and caps its offline catch-up at a clearly documented 24 hours — for a one-time NZ$4.31 with no reviews, no achievements curve worth reading, and a developer FAQ that admits the balance still needs work.

Overcooked! 2

A beloved chaotic co-op cooking sequel whose biggest, most persistent complaint isn't about difficulty or design — it's a specific online-connectivity problem reviewers have reported in nearly every year since 2018, plus one infamous level that keeps coming up for genuine motion sickness.

ScreenSaver Idle

A DVD-logo corner-hit clicker that grows into a three-mode idle RPG — mining, farming and fishing all feed the same currency as the bouncing logo — but it is a windowed Steam game, not an actual screensaver, and its store page never claims to earn a cent while it isn't open.

Scritchy Scratchy

A scratch-card incremental that swaps the usual "buy 10" button for a mouse dragged across a lottery ticket, and turns out to be one of the most purely satisfying opening hours the genre has produced this year — right up until the point where the tickets stop having anything new to say.

SlimeHold

A roguelite auto-battler where you draft slimes wave by wave, decide which ones hold the line and which roam free, and defend a King who's surrounded on every side rather than tucked behind a lane — a solo debut from Softkeep Studio, reviewed the day after launch.

Spiritstead

A hand-drawn cozy city builder from debut studio Turbo Dog Games, where growing a village is only half the loop — the other half is coaxing hidden spirits out of hiding by experimenting with weather, timing and item placement, delivered as a four-to-seven-hour campaign priced at €8.54 two days after launch.

Still Open: Taskbar Cafe Idle

A solo developer's genuinely distinctive idle cafe that lives quietly on your taskbar while you work, doubling as a real productivity tool with a built-in Pomodoro timer and task list — warmly reviewed for its ambient jazz and hands-off charm, with minor rough edges around its tutorial and a couple of upgrade-gated features some reviewers feel should be free from the start.
