Idle Build RPG

One entry in a whole shelf of near-identical cheap idle RPGs from the same solo developer, with genuine long-term depth for players who push through — and a first hour so poorly explained that one reviewer called it "the easiest refund of my life."

5.5 / 10

Idle Crown

A cheap Melvor-style idle RPG whose worker-automation system is a genuine bright spot, undercut by additive scaling that stalls progress hard past the opening days and by flavour text several players independently flag as AI-written.

Idle Planets

A cheap, colourful space-mining idler that launched thin and slow in mid-2024, drew serious unverified complaints from its own playtesters about how feedback was handled, then went quiet for over a year before a genuinely substantial 2025 content update.

Incremental Fishing

A solo developer's earnest first Steam game — a calm, click-to-fish incremental loop that early buyers call meditative and addictive — undercut by launch bugs (an aim circle that outgrows the screen, garbled talent-tree text) and a hard stop once the short talent tree is finished, with no ascension or replay option to follow it.

Inn Tycoon

A NZ$17.49 semi-AFK tavern sim whose own reviewers keep naming the same superior rival, Tavern Master, unprompted — and whose staff AI several report collapsing once a tavern grows past a few dozen employees, with no update in the nine months since it left Early Access.

Island Idle RPG

A small, chill background idle RPG about managing a tropical colony of mercenary creatures, genuinely enjoyed by a niche audience for low-pressure passive play, held back by real, consistently reported bugs and a UI several reviewers call unfinished.

Machick

A charming wand-crafting survivors-like about magic chickens fighting an anti-magic toad army, whose developers patched intensely for its first month before support tapered off and eventually pivoted to announcing a sequel rather than fixing the bugs still reported years later.

Monsters Auto Battler

A NZ$7.39 solo-developer auto-battler about placing mercenaries in a small arena and watching the fight resolve — a coherent, fairly priced take on a crowded subgenre that has spent nearly eight months on Steam without attracting a single user review.

Nexfall

A 3-6 player multiplayer parkour game that pairs precision platforming with a build-your-loadout ability deck and a level-based unlock ladder, launched with a single Russian-language user review and zero people playing it at the moment this was checked.

Ocean Cleaner Idle

A gorgeous, genuinely relaxing incremental about scooping ocean plastic into a recycling boat, whose short-session reviewers love the art and music and whose longer-session reviewers hit a wall of confusing systems, a since-fixed missing autosave, and balance that still reads as broken weeks after launch.

Phantom Signal

Veslo Games' web-of-relays base defence owes an open debt to the Kongregate flash classic The Space Game, and for a handful of missions that inheritance is a genuine strength. Fifty-two achievements and a leaderboard have sat broken since the developer went quiet in 2018, and the sixteen-mission campaign runs out of new ideas well before it runs out of missions.

Squirrel Idle Tycoon

A NZ$4.49 solo-developer idle tycoon about melting ice into water into acorns, with a prestige loop its one detailed Steam reviewer put over 200 hours into — and a review corpus so thin there's almost nothing else to weigh that against.

Stellar Settlers: Space Base Builder

A hamster-cage colony sim where you build both across and up through a planet's crust, then cap every map off with a physics-based rocket launch — a genuinely novel structure let down by AI-generated portraits, math bugs in its own production formulas, and a patch history that goes almost silent the week after full release.

Underworld Idle

A free 2023 idle-management game about breeding demons, undead and warlocks from the top of each faction's chain down — Mixed across 867 reviews, with a long-running, well-documented complaint that its offline progress is a rounding error and its pacing is tuned around a NZ$56.99 token pack.

Worldcrusher - a survival clicker game

Talentless Person Games' pocket-sized clicker sends you smashing other planets apart to rebuild the home you lost, over a LoFi soundtrack and a run that's done in about an hour. It's a pleasant enough hour for the asking price, but "survival" in the title oversells a game with no hunger, health or threat system anywhere in it.

Die With Glory

An old Viking's only goal is to find a death glorious enough to earn Valhalla, and the tall-tale premise is genuinely funny when the pop-culture gags land. What undercuts it is how much of its 2017 Steam port still behaves like the touchscreen game it started life as, down to the mid-playthrough prompt to rate it five stars on an app marketplace.
