not great that higher runs give a debuff to prestige bonuses. Like what's the point of giving me a boost at the end of a run if the next run all of my prestiges will be halved anyways?
Aside from that, game is suspiciously similar to "Idle Game 1." Maybe having an "inspired by" message would be good, to at least credit the game that you're taking ideas from.

The longer you've played the game, the longer it takes for it to load when you return. Currently up to at least a minute, so I think it's time to stop.

The game is quite fun at first and the progression is ok. Later on the bonuses are off.
For higher tier runs you only get a 50-100% higher reward - yet you need WAY longer to complete.
Right now I'm at 30k% cost and income porstige bonus.
I can get to 300 Ash runes in 4 minutes. 400 Nature (+50% reward) already takes 30 minutes. And 500 Nature runes (+100% reward) takes an overnight run - at least 12++ hours.
How are you supposed to reach even higher tiers without grinding for weeks? The rewards for higher tiers are just too low - or the cost increase of higher runes too high. Kills all progress and fun.
Also, some of the bonuses are utterly useless, e.g. the "starting mana" - one run may increase my starting mana by some 2000. But my starting runes already give an income of several tens of thousands of mana per second. So the bonus saves me nothing.

one important thing to realise is that uneven runs are more easy as even runs. so run001 (200occult) is more easy as run 000 (200 light) and 300 ash is more easy as 300 occult etc.
Once you find this, the game progress much more smooth.

@BOINKY when you finish a run and can choose a new bonus, theres a button in the corner that says "bonuses" and will show you all the end run bonuses you've chosen so far.

@pirro with random rewards being off it just constantly picks the "rng bad? add +x to all numbers" instead of choosing 1 of the 3 options.

Oh, also... don't start a level 2 run before you've done a good amount of lvl 1 runs (just click "reroll easier runs" to start another 200 light runes run

@fernando123asd The trick is to Prestige as quickly as you can, and for a long time on 50 magic runes only. However, i have a feeling i need to start every new run by unlocking the first 3 runes, until i get the auto magic rune; i think i get it quicker by having 3 runes started than when i only run the magic rune one.

I've completed tier 2 with 325% income, 300% cost and 2250% magic runes and it takes ~1.5h. This may be a reference on when to try tier 2. However the reward of tier 2 is just the twice of tier 1 and unlocks fire rune %, this is too low and frustrating.

How did people progress so fast? Was there some kind of nerf? "magic rune income upgrade" so far I never seen this option, and to me the start bonus is just 200 mana, not 600. Also, the beginning is soo slow, just waiting to get the first 50 magic runes takes forever by not buy any other runes.

Tip: get +, - and auto buy for each rune then turn on automation either for all or next depending where you are and just let this run with auto buy. worship only helps early each run.

@Kleiner144 Maybe because you cannot get from Prestige150 to 200 anymore? (the Final Goal never has an auto prestige option)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Why not just keep auto prestige mode active by default? It won't do anything if you dont have an auto-prestige milestone set

@yellowfellow50 No, starting runes only make you gain mana from the start onward. So you don't have to click a rune to get started anymore
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Does the gain in starting magic runes increase the cost of more magic runes? Does it essentially make getting more cheaper?

@BoinkySiwinski : Prestige as soon as you can, and on the same prestige level for a while. Collect as many bonusses from that until you can prestige about every 2 seconds, then go for next level (and repeat). Just don't go for the higher prestige levels too early

the game is not well balanced. to run 300 occult rune i have 1500 cost/more prestige, 3000 more mana, rest is not important. in 30 minutes. im stuck to: 280 earth rune, 260 water rune, 250 light rune, 230 occult rune. not impossible to move on. and farming it without an autobuy at the beginning is tiring for magic rune, because after each reset you have to wait until the autobuy appears. this game tired me.

5 Only buy the runes you need for the next prestige. That menas if you dont have cost reduction on magic and fire rune dont buy earth runes the random prestige is on this runes you are unlocked

@Pikolinapl thats up to you for how long youre willing to wait. you CAN do it whenever, but it will take a LONG time to finish the run. i suggest do a bunch of smaller runs to chip up your numbers. I tend to try and get all the new bonuses before i advance a tier. im not sure if its the most effective way to play; im by no means the farthest along. but get +25 magic runes, 5k mana from magic; and i was up to around 2k income and cost. see how fast you can finish a run and once you can do it fast, advance, and if you cant finish, end the run and go back down.

@darkphinix i have: 250 more income prestige, 175 more cost prestige, 600 mana, +2 magic rune, 900 more mana from magic runes. and i dont start 300 occulus run. when start higher tier?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Pikolinapl, the main categories are "income prestige (+)" that increases the mana made by that color; and "cost prestige (-)" that lowers the cost to upgrade or add a level to that color, making it easier to get to the level 25 or 50 and up break points where they get a big bonus to their mana production.
Later, there are also ones for starting with more mana to let you buy more upgrades right away; start with up to 25 of any given color already purchased; increase a specific colors mana generation by up to 5000% making the lower level colors stay viable as you continue to progress. thats all ive found so far and I'm on run tier 7.

eh you can make run 003 of 300 ash runes if u make some earlier runs again and again, mana % runes rly help. then idk im in a while with run 003 it gets faster but later runs seems like needing a lot of early runs to get. A LOT . it's kinda playing while doing other things and sometimes saving and entering after a while that numbers scaled to end run and over and over again.
I thought it ends after 200 light runes but mheee lol though i find it relaxing somehow.
