Best Simulation Idler Games on PC

Incremental Cubes

At this time I feel like you should probably not get this game.

Quick notes:

The game is free, but you should be warned that the game is still buggy and the balance is out of whack.
Also not very obvious in the video or description is that while the game is free, there is an in-game store where you can purchase stuff like temporary speed boosts, extra slots, and permanent upgrades to the game speed. You aren’t explicitly forced to buy anything and there is a daily bonus that can give you a bit of the in-game currency, but it’s random and even with the best luck (always getting the 3% chance reward) it would take 10 days to get anything really worthwhile.

Most recent update destroyed the game. In discord the Developer said;

“[v 1.0.7 “Hot Fix”]

Offline bonuses and helper updates

Adjusted to reset the original maximum value on prestige.”

These “helper updates” have caused people to no longer progress in the game at a reasonable rate. Game is now in a dire need of rebalancing. game is currently UNPLAYABLE as of November 22nd 2021. I will not be playing anymore. I will consider my $10 that I paid for the “starter pack” a “cost” of trying out this game. I do NOT recommend to anyone who likes Idle or Incremental games.

After playing for 0.2 hours I have uncovered a lot but I can guarantee I have not found everything. This game has lore. Fnaf lore. Big lore. Little lore. Cardboard box lore. I cannot wait to uncover the darkest deep secrets this game hides within but for now. Lá vie en film !

Drunk Soccer is the Best Soccer

Great game, love it.

It did what it had to do, felt pretty drunk after playing it one hour. I got a headache and I feel kind a sick…

It changed my life. If I want to miss out work now I just play this game and get sick so I don’t have to pretend to be.

31/10 I would recommend buying this triple a title

Fat Prisoner Simulator 3

Might possibly be the best game on the market currently. The graphics, the gameplay, the absolute talent required to even TOUCH this game is insane.

Fire Place

It’s the perfect time for a virtual Fire Place

with days getting shorter and hazy seasons approaching.

The game – or rather simulation – offers a variety of scenes/locations to choose from, generally season unrelated.

You might choose the bonfire at the beach or the mediterranean looking fire-place for some chill summer evenings.

The game offers to many options to manipulate the behaviour of the fire itself and also the rendering/appearance to list them all. You can change brightness and glow but also get detailed control like how fast the heat spreads or the ambient heat which affects the fire.

Less game, more experience. Fire Place works as both a short-session way to chill and a long one if you need a sleeping aid. Once you’ve got a decent fire going it’ll keep itself active for about 20 minutes depending on available fuel, or you can tinker with it every 5 or so minutes to maintain it indefinitely. There are multiple scenes to work with, ranging from a generic campfire to an old Victorian-era fireplace in a vaguely spooky room.

Note here each fireplace layout features different audio, some of which is great and some…well, you’ll wonder why its addition to the game was celebrated lol. There are thankfully sliders for the music as well as everything else including how the fire reacts to materials - modifying some of these though can cause your GPU to break a bit of a sweat so low-spec users should be wary.

Fish Simulator: Aquarium Manager

This game is still new and a little buggy, BUT let me tell you, it’s still absolutely worth it! If you have any problems hop on the Discord, the dev was able to help me out immediately with the one problem I had.

The gameplay itself is fun and addicting! As a lover of simulated life games and anything with genetic based breeding mechanics, this is a game that I see myself playing for hours on end for weeks to come, and I’m really excited to see what’s to come!

– Real player with 68.8 hrs in game

This game is really basic, but to be honest its hard to find a fun game that has any kind of breeding in it. I finished unlocking all parts of the map in a day, completing all of the steam achievements gave it another day worth of content.

To be perfectly honest the game is to easy. Its easy to make money, you sell dying fish for big bucks. There is no limit on how many fish you can have in a tank except perhaps the limit of if your computer can keep up, and killing these fish requires a lot of effort even with me turning the temperature up, turning the oxygen down and not even feeding them they somehow lived from egg to adulthood. Different difficulty levels would make the game more challenging, if even basic genetics could be added it would be a dream.

Future Fortune

Should you be able to retroactively increase the rarity of your boosters? Yes. Does that make the game RNG? No, not really. This game is simple, fun, and intuitive and does not play even remotely similarly to Adventure Capitalist other than they are both clicker games. Everyone who is salty about this game either has no patience or no sense for numbers, as the game is easy and picks up the pace very quickly. Is the game a masterpiece….well, no. But it does what it sets out to do.

It’s a decent idler. Been at it a few days, running on the secondary monitor as an occasional distraction.

Good stuff:

You start off fully manual on all of your activities. Then you earn points to automate those clicks so it becomes more idle.
Pace of earning points to increase your resources and automation seem steady and good.
So far, no walls hit or problems. Just spend your points wisely where they will have the greatest impact on how you want to play.
Left it running overnight 24x7 for 4 days without a bug or crash.

Atom

This game is cool. You can make the hydrogen do some wild things visually. Hydrogen is interesting since (I think) all of our other atoms come from hydrogen, don’t quote me on that.

For .99, it’s certainly worth it.

I hope the author makes more content like this.

Not gonna lie, this game is stupid at the moment. That being said, I’m glad I bought it; it was truly fun to mess around with, and although the novelty has worn off, it was nice. I really hope more is added in the near future. I would recommend this game but only because I thought it was fun for the few minutes I played it. A little tour of the controls would be nice, and it would be good if one could change the quality of the graphics and/or simulation for different PCs to properly run it at whatever they want/need. This game could be a lot of fun if it were to take a look at other sandbox-type simulation games, such as universe sandbox. The variety of different controls with explanations detailed enough that you know what you’re doing when you’re doing it. Overall, I’d say the only reason I had fun playing this was my ADHD deciding to hyperfixate on this for the past little bit. Keep working on this game and it could become something greater
