I love this game a lot. Each time I think I'm close to the end, I see something in comments or chat and I think, "what the heck are they talking about? You mean there's MORE???" It keeps on giving months later. The idea of factions and quests and who knows what else sets this game apart from other idles, where you just farm for the sake of farming. In Realm Grinder, you farm in order to do something, not just for the sake of it. Five stars for me!
There's a bug that actually makes the blast shield and the meat shield improve accuracy instead of reduce it...So never buy the buckler, because it's only bonus is accuracy and there's already better shields that give you that.
It would be nice if you could upgrade poison damage; once you get further on in the game, 1 damage per turn doesn't do much against a 86 hp ballistae (also, screw you ballistae).
