  1. [R2] Revolution Idle 5/5 · US Top 10 greatest games ever: I played before the developers added unity (unity spoilers ahead) and I have had an amazing experience, one small thing is that some times I feels like you hit a wall in progression like in the different zodiac element achievements and attack levels but it feel amazing when you find the build to break though that wall and start processing like crazy. Great game going fo
  2. [R4] Revolution Idle 1/5 · US The flow is great until…: You get to the last “prestige” system which half the game. It becomes more and more and more grindy til the point you have to repeat it over 100,000 times. Utterly boring and the offline system is rubbish.
  3. [R5] Revolution Idle 5/5 · US Helpful review: I have been playing this game for quite some time I have about 10 days of playtime, took me about 96 hours to get my first unity and I’m working on my second right now.

There are many good features about the game, understanding the best and most optimal way to progress through the game has
  4. [R6] Revolution Idle 3/5 · US Good until macros: Once you crack eternity, the game becomes a lot less user friendly with the introduction of macros instead of normal automation. This is the reason I dropped the game. It was fun until this point though!

  6. [R21] Revolution Idle 3/5 · GB New update: I’ve been playing this game quite a lot for the last few weeks and I’ve really enjoyed it, in no way is this a negative take at the game because this is genuinely one of the best idle games I’ve ever played, but the new update has changed something. All my saves have been wiped. All of my data. And I can’t seem to find out how to get it back. I hope this isn’t just me but help would be

  9. [R10] Revolution Idle 1/5 · US Bugs: Can’t do achievement 200
  10. [R1] Revolution Idle 1/5 · US The worst game I’ve played: Terrible game. Temu Plague Inc. 6 7 jokes everywhere. Their fat Discord mod furry/anime cult of “fans” mob you every time you dare to question their dear leaders game. I wish the developer nothing but the worst. It would be their karma for creating a lack luster iApp purchase farm.

  13. [R19] Revolution Idle 1/5 · US RIP: Spent over a year building up timeflux, with the hope I’d have something useful to progress quickly with. Guess not. Will be deleting the app if it gets removed.

  15. [R50] Revolution Idle 5/5 · US Dream Idle Game Brought To Life😃: I downloaded this game, thinking it would be the same as every other: A ad-heavy game.

Right now, I have 50 Sx EP. This is the dream idle game. If you’re looking for a fun idle g
  16. [R62] Idle World 5/5 · US Fun game but a few things I don’t like: Hi, I recently bought the no ads purchase and this is a very fun game. However, there’s some things I don’t like. 1. The “unlock the pyramids of Giza” mission is nearly impossible since the countries cost more than I can get most of the time. It’s very annoying. 2. Why is there an unnecessarily long timer for the ads? What I’m talking about is that once I ge
  17. [R69] Idle World 3/5 · US Premium is misleading.: I’ve had fun with it, but it says free flying bonuses are included with premium but you still have to watch ads half the time.
  18. [R76] Idle World 1/5 · US Rip off: I spent money to bypass the ads (i like games like this so $14.99 isn’t a lot when I am gonna play a game for multiple hours a week) but you can only skip 1 ad every 4 minutes and you can’t choose to watch ads during those 4 minutes.

Please fix it
