Best idle game I've ever played, I haven't touched this game in 3+ years but i still reminisce about it and realized I never gave a review.
Pros:
1. Let's start with the best thing first, realm grinder has TONS of re-playability. Unlike other idle games, it doesn't feel like a chore to get to the abdication or even reincarnation aspect of the game. Because it adds something new and interesting, almost every time you do this (Such as excavating, factions, stronger factions, unique alchemy abilities and much much more) it gives the game a new playstyle, goal and something to look forward to every time. Unlike other idle games where you grind the same way over and over to just do it faster and faster with minimal difference in playstyle.
2. Nice music, realxed gameplay
3. A LOT of mechanics and continuesly discoverey, keeping things spicy and interesting and doing the same thing over and over.
so the cons some people might see.
1. Realm grinder is very complex, especially at higher reincarnations - you might need a guide unless you tirelessly sit down and calulate the math to manage your kingdom ( if you don't like this it's a con, if you do its a pro). It's one of the reasons I stopped later on, it became too much even for me - although there are guides.
2. it's not very animated if you prefer good visuals.
3. there is very slightly p2w like in any idle game, but I don't really consider it intrusive or bad - but could be a con for some.
4. runs can last days later on and can be a bit frustrating if you want to progress fast, but it is an IDLE game. So it shouldn't be a huge issue and remain a challenge.
I honestly can't think of any more bad things to say about this game and the cons are honestly nit picking and me trying to consider everyone.

There is several systems for builds and i like them so much, but progression curve is so slow that most people wont even see that there is great gamemechanics. Only downside is new stuff opens with giant gap after opening last thing.

A strategy idler, that has different factions with different play-styles, various research options, upgrades, buildings, pleasing pixelated graphics and clean/easy to understand UI that isn't cluttered with useless stuff. Very enjoyable and good for a casual background game. Also, doesn't shove MTX down your throat at every opportunity.

Realm Grinder offers unique idle mechanics and strategic depth, but its steep learning curve and slow progression can deter casual players.
Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3/5)

Realm Grinder is an excellent idle / clicking game, to a certain point. You're in control of a Realm that can be good, evil, or neutral, and your factions determine whether you get higher bonuses from constantly clicking in active play mode or long-term idling. The pixel art varies wildly from themes of perpetual spring to lakes of molten lava. There's neat bonuses you can get from certain achievement badges, and you can wind up mixing traits from several factions together late in the game.
Unfortunately, this game is focused around a series of increasingly hard evolutions, where getting to the next stage eventually basically requires players to read wikis to find successful trait combos and what spells to auto-cast. This drained out a lot of the enjoyment of me trying to come up with novel solutions on my own, as they'd basically always come up magnitudes lower than required for the next stage of the game.
Realm Grinder is great in concept and I've definitely enjoyed a lot of the time I've invested in it.
