This game is a cockhole of a waste of time
Wasted $5 and 19 hours of my life. As a big fan of idle games I don't see the point with this one.
-No offline production, until you ascend and spend weeks of your life getting those chips anyways to do so
-If you work a full time job and don't enjoy leaving your computer on 24/7, then just get f*cked on progression
-Rely heavily on golden cookies to get anywhere.
-The progression is straight ♥♥♥♥ can. Upgrades are ridiculously expensive and the only time I got anywhere was using an autoclicker, wtf?
This game was a huge disappointment honestly. For the people who enjoy it, I'm glad you do, but I don't see how

Did you miss the part "IDLE"?
Most games of this genre operate mostly the same way until you build up some base to automate things.
And yes, auto-clickers are advised. Its probably why the first one is called CLICKERS....

Its understandable not all folks will like every version of idlers/clicker games as there are a few I didnt like over the years as well.

If its an idle game, you can leave it on in the background and do other things. You say that an auto-clicker is advised, and well you cant really just put it in the background if you need your mouse to be doing something. I get the concept of the game man, but it requires too much attention to simply just idle out and progress at a good rate.

Maybe you should try this game. You will see a big difference in active gameplay as Trimps takes weeks to automate.

Just like anything else in life nothing will please everyone.

I personally quite like this game.

Yes, it does require some attention, even late game. Not everyone wants a game where it is on the background at 99.9% of the time though.

Honestly it didn't take me THAT long to get to the point where I could idle. Maybe thirty-hours with half of that being idle time. So I really don't get people who post complaining about it taking weeks to make progress, I know you didn't explicitly state weeks but it's a complaint I see a lot and I got to it in a few days in just over a day of play.

As for the upgrades/buildings they really aren't that bad after you've ascended 2-3 times. I felt like they were prohibitively expensive my first round and by my third ascension I was drowning in them. So many I literally stopped knowing what to buy aside from what's needed for achievements.

Overall though I'd just say I don't mind the active gameplay. I can either turn the golden switch on and just let the game do its thing or I can sit it in the corner and click every golden cookie I see. I've done both and enjoyed both and I don't mind that the mid-game requires some thought instead of just idling for 500+ hours.

TL'DR - I enjoy that it's more active than other idle games but that I can turn it to idle mode whenever I get bored. And didn't find the grind to unlocking the idle side to be anywhere near as bad as a lot have said.
