i understand its an idle game but every action is so absurdly, painfully slow... days and days to gain virtually 0 gains..

The game itself is genuinely enjoyable — great mechanics, solid design, and has real potential for long-term play. But the experience is completely soured by the moderation team.

Mods are disrespectful, mute people arbitrarily, and seem more interested in flexing authority than supporting the community. Ask for help, and you’ll be met with silence or snark. Say the wrong thing (or nothing at all), and you’re out. It feels like their goal is less about maintaining order and more about inflating their own egos in a tiny digital kingdom.

I genuinely want to recommend this game. The core is solid, and the dev clearly cares and does a great job supporting the players. But as long as the mod team operates without any accountability, it’s just not worth the effort. It’s frustrating trying to engage or get anything positive out of the experience — which is a shame, because the IRC-style chat system could be a standout feature if it weren’t policed like a digital fiefdom.

Play with the chat muted if you must, and avoid drawing attention to yourself. You're not playing the game — you're tiptoeing through a moderator minefield.

Online Idle Game that shares similarities to Melvor Idle. Highly recommend if you like the aforementioned.
Features full auction house as well as multiplayer party system for running combat dungeons.
Has an "IronCow" mode for SSF players. Games is 100% idle, but you can queue actions / skills to happen after each other.
Many different skills and combat styles. Unfortunately a lot blend together as its mostly a number go up game.
Game has been out for a bit so leaderboards are filled with oldies from outside Steam if you care about that.
Community is very nice and never had any issues in the chat. People willing to help if you just ask.
(I did not play before the Steam release myself. Account 52 days old at the time of writing).
There is some Paid features, but these can be unlocked free-to-play as paid currency is able to be obtained via the auction house as well as rare drops from chests. Most paid items are cosmetic in nature (Chat icons and colors).
I have personally been able to earn this currency very easily just playing and often spend my gold on upgrades instead.
Since I started playing there has been one major update adding new items and dungeons.
Very solid Idle game and I look forward to the future content the Dev plans to add.
