Realm Grinder

If you are looking for a quick addition to the 100% section in your library, don't get this game. it has taken me so so long to get the last achievement. If you are looking for a fun idle game to kill time, then you have found it with this game. It feels so good getting the last achievement after all this effort, but I don't think i could do it again.

Look at how many hours I have on this game and try to tell me it isn't good.
If you're going to play though look up g00f's not a wiki, the advice and knowledge there honestly improves the experience

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)
Realm Grinder is the game you start playing to kill 5 minutes and end up losing 5 years of your life. The basic premise is simple: you click stuff to get gold and use the gold to buy buildings. Then you click more stuff to get more gold and buy more buildings. Repeat until your fingers fall off.
Ever wondered what it’s like to be the king of a tiny virtual kingdom with an inexplicably robust economy? Wonder no more! The game’s charm lies in its ability to make you feel like an omnipotent overlord, even though you’re just sitting in your pajamas clicking away.
But beware: the allure of Realm Grinder is stronger than a siren’s call. The game has more factions than a high school drama, and each one promises you insane boosts if you just commit to their cult-like community. One minute you're a goodly angel, and the next, you're sacrificing virtual goats to some dark deity for better resource gains.
The real kicker? You don't even have to actively play it. The game rewards you for doing absolutely nothing. Walk away, eat a sandwich, come back, and you've somehow amassed a fortune bigger than Scrooge McDuck’s vault.
Realm Grinder is the perfect blend of strategy, fantasy, and a casual game that you didn’t know you needed in your life. Just don’t blame us if you find yourself whispering sweet nothings to your computer screen at 3 AM. Happy clicking, you maniacal monarch!

Fun game, with a tight-knit community on discord. A great game for anyone willing to put in the ton of hours necessary to unlock everything. Some of the most content I've seen in an Idle game. The game suffers from wiki searches for the most optimal builds, but it is very fun optimizing without the Wiki.

I thought I'd give it a try. Then it was four hours later. I highly recommend an auto clicker program.
I just wish I could choose where to put my buildings. Be nice if it give me more direct control. It does not.
At least it's low on using resources. Fun to play in the background while you're doing something else.
Bottom line, 6/10. It's decent if you like that type of game.
It's an idle game. You either like that genre or you don't.

This is a really great idle game that has an insane amount of strategy required as you progress. Maybe too much imo, my monkey brain needed to start using guides as I reached R40. But even with that the progression is really satisfying once you've grinded past and surpassed previous roadblocks and caps.
Overall really solid idle game where "number big=fun" doesn't really get old.

A quite fun little clicker game where you can play as different races and then have a soft-reset in a rogue-like style by gaining items and abilities that pass over with each different life that you take, often benefiting certain races more than the others. Later you're able to unlock more races and even the mercenary clan who can use all kinds of abilities from all the different factions to mix and match, creating some truly impressive combinations, though most of those I found by looking up guides online.
Being so addicted to this there's always the chance I may return to it again, but for now I have no issue just leaving it as it is whilst I try to work on finishing other games and writing up more reviews for Backloggd and other places!
It's certainly quite enjoyable, especially with the collectables found when excavating that unlock abilities and races. Often only unlockable via certain clans and not others.
