8 levels away from maxxing "Shortboard". It's 3.2 million rn. I going to assume it'll take weeks along just to get it to 68. bleh.

You see, this is the classic old school idle game. A thing some used to do is when you go up to certain levels, time is halved, or diminished in some way. Ok, is a idle, but that doesn't mean I want to wait literal days to go up.

Don't badge this game... It's not fun after 4 days. How long of a time investment should we really permit as the "incubation phase"

It takes about 2 years if your F2P to get to the end. Im almost there, totally F2P. I would not recommend spending money on this game at all. The value of money for the boosts is shit.

I play this game follow a Reddit recommendation, while it's good enough it's too slow in compare with other idle games. Could be months before I reach the end game.

Yeah devs play a few minutes every day and you will get to town level 3 in a couple days. Took me 2 weeks. MAKE PROGRESSION EASIER. Easily one of the worst idle games i've played.

They have had the same special offers for a very long time
Pls make progression easier and post new content. Dead game now

There is not really an end to this game, as far as I can tell, but it can be "finished" by most measures within about a year (maxed island trophies). From there, you can finish the collection of prestige items, if you haven't; and within 2 years, max the workshop; but I don't think there's a max to the facilities, or Agent levels. (or tv station levels, for that matter, but they become obviously unreachable at a certain point).

i'd like to add this game is like a strange drug addiction. once you start you cannot stop till you see it through. im almost there and still f2p.

this game is so dead.
Never have a played such a boring idle game.
and to you Game dev, why do I have to wait till level 30 for the game to get good, how about you put all that amazing stuff at the start and then make more "amazing mechanics" the later levels.

Player: I have played this game for 789456123 seconds, nothing is happening.
Developer Response: Play this game for 789456124 seconds, then it gets really interesting.

"You need to be level 30 to access Holyday Island" has anyone seen this? What's the point of making content nobody will ever see? Also, why have Iron unlock so early? Can't use it for another 10 days lol.

Holdup how does this game have a 9/10 rating on steam!
Probably a bunch of bots if you ask me. To get to level 3 takes so long.

Alright reached level 3, but there is really no point to keep it up. Nothing new really and same old grind. Port is a joke.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
It looks good, but it is crazy slow. I have not got to level 3 yet and it feels a long way to go. All you can do is wait a long time and then uppgrade things and then wait some more.
I will keep trying to reach level 3. If nothing new happen then I will quit.

I think out of all the games where I've gotten badges from, this one stands out EASILY as the WORST one I've ever played. The idle mechanics and prestige implemented in this game are just unbelievably off balance and flatout boring.

i have all city trophies and all but the last island trophies.... now guess what: at my current income lvl it will take me only ~15.000 days to get trophy 384! Loooool

Pro-tip: always use your 1h/2h time skips. They just keep piling up till you have hundreds if not thousands of them, and then it sucks to use them all

A week of play to reach city level 3, which the devs kept responding to comments as when "the more interesting part begins at level 3". Well I got to level 3 and what was the interesting part? The port opened up so i could sell materials earned in the production sector. "thats it?" I thought, but I looked to the top to see tabs for ship missions, a marina and an aquarium. "Finally more content!" I scream in joy. I click on each tab only to find out that I have to get to level 14 to unlock those tabs. So to the devs, selling materials is interesting? Where is the effing content man? Worthless game. At least I earned the medium badge and dont have to touch this again

The developer responses are hilarious. "We'll ignore your feedback until after you suffer through the subpar experience the first few days." I suggest you do players the courtesy of listening to the feedback they took the time to give you. , and improve the first few days. It wouldn't hurt to make the first few days more interesting as well. It might even lead to better player retention and higher ratings. But feel free to disregard my feedback too. Dang.

16 months into this game and I still haven't gotten all of the trophies.
This game sucks. The prestige system is utterly boring - they don't actually unlock new features/mechanics. Leveling the city is the only real way to unlock new mechanics, and those mechanics are just more multipliers with minimal differences. DO NOT touch the island, it's horribly unbalanced growth-wise and you get no real reward for your effort past level 3. After that progression becomes a repetitive grind without any new features whatsoever. I think I've been working on the island, having completed the city, for almost 10 months now. This game is the worst type of idle/incremental game and I highly recommend AVOIDING it. If I could give it 0 stars I would.

The game went faster before the first mandatory reset. Not sure how that is possible. Never saw a game that did something like that.

Boober77, I am there with you pal. Going to get that damn island to 29 eventually. F2P here too. I wonder how many people spent money on this monster?

Need to change the save button to a save and exit. Things get better with Events. early levels could be a bit easier to obtain. but not bad for this type of game.

What a Jump! I am on the last build for all TV stations and it goes from 1Tqag/1E132 to needing 1Nonog/1E300. That is going to take forever to get.

Okay i am now on the 3rd day with the game open on my second monitor buying upgrades as neccesary every few hours and i just made it to city level 2. DEVS if you can't access ANY new content in like 3 days probably need to make it a bit faster...

Even the save button has an excessively long cool down. I think that says everything you need to know about this 'game'

@spudly55 There's still a word of the day. It's still being posted on their twitter account for the game. Of course, @catgravy is completely right in that if you have the list of words that they rotate through, you don't even really need to check...
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@spudly55 powerplant the beginning is so slow it cant draw users into the game, if they changed the pace of the early game, people could actually tell if it is better or just as bad later on

Spudly, there is a list of the words floating around for the entire year. If you want, PM me and I can send you a copy.

Looks like the developer finally gave up completely on this game as there is no longer any support for word of the day

Conspiracy Theory:
It looks like a cash grab of a game. And I suspect kongregate is in it too. Let me explain my thought process. I was looking for new badges (in 2020 yes, i am ashamed of myself) and I found this game called midas gold. Which has an easy and a medium badge. I thought to myself, it must be good, because it has badges, so it must be a good time invesment. The medium badge on that game also took several days to achieve. Then I see this game. And it has again, an easy and a medium badge. Hmmmmm....
Then I see the options page, they say try our other game, MIDAS GOLD!!!!
I guess this developer is just publishing mediocre idle games with pay to win features. And giving kongregate guys a little something something for them to put a few bagdes on it.
Conspiracy theory ends here. Thanks for reading. And if you are the developer, I have some mean things to say about your morals!!!
