this is the best idle game i've ever played (and i've played a lot). it's very deep and complex, but it introduces each new concept so gradually that it's never overwhelming - the learning curve is excellent. just when you feel like you have everything down, a new part of the game opens up and it's back to figuring new strategies out, trial and error, and fun. after 53 days of playing very regularly i feel like i'm maybe near the end of the early game.

the game is definitely free to play, you never feel like you have to spend money. however, if you wish to there is an in-game currency (souls) that can be purchased to buy in-game QoL improvements and items to speed your progress. you do, however, gain a decent amount of souls for free every day. i gladly paid $10 to support the devs, who update the game very frequently and are actively adding new content.

there is an in-game chat that is really nice. i've asked a few questions and always received quick, friendly advice. i've also learned a lot by lurking and reading discussions by players who are much further along than i am.

a list of other idle games that i've played (but not enjoyed nearly as much as WAMI): clicker heroes 1&2, AdCap and AdCom, ItRtG, zombidle, holyday city, king midas, swarm, wild west saga, god awefull clicker, soda dungeon, idle champs of forgotten realms, crusaders of the lost idols, time clickers.

as far as cons go - it's hard to complain about this game. the graphics are weak, but you don't play idle/incremental games for their looks. there are some aspects of game-play that are a bit difficult to figure out - however, you can always ask for help in chat, and personally i enjoy the fun of figuring things out on my own so while this may be a con for some, it's mostly a positive for me.

if you like idle games even the tiniest bit, definitely try this one out. it's free, so there's nothing to lose.
