Idle Games

Idle games let you watch numbers go up while you relax. Tap once to start earning rewards like cookies or coins, and the game keeps working even when you're not playing. This makes idle games great for breaks, commutes, or any time you want stress-free progress.
It all started with simple web games like Candy Box! and Cookie Clicker. These games made it fun to upgrade and see your points grow faster with each new boost. Now, idle games are on phones and computers, with new features like collecting heroes, building cities, and solving merge puzzles.
There are many types of idle games. Clicker games reward fast tapping at first. Passive idle games give you rewards with little effort. Idle RPGs and strategy games add gear, teams, and simple stories. Many games let you reset for bigger bonuses, making it exciting to start again.
Whether you want to compete for high scores or just enjoy a relaxing game in the background, idle games let you play at your own pace. Try a classic like Cookie Clicker, explore an Idle RPG, or find a new favorite today.
