The value story
The value story
Across all 114 discounts in the 11 years tracked, the median cut is 75 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
It is cheaper than 91 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 74 percent. Plantera ($2.99, scores 77) outscores it, and so does Loot Hero DX ($2.99, scores 35). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work
What players say
Not the best idle game since it has no depth. Buy on sale if you want to try it.
1 more review, not recommended
I don't understand the positive reviews on this at all. I usually *try* to only give good reviews or don't review things if I can't say something at least positive. The only positive thing is this game is cute. Am I blind? Is there a way to make clicking the enemies worth it? Is there something I am missing? Why does it take like ten minutes on 'higher' levels to get through the allotted enemies? Why does it cost...
