So I have been playing idle web games for a longed damned time. "But King Badger, what are idle web games?" I am sure you are asking allowed to your computing device, much to the dismay of everyone in the room with you. An Idle Web Game (IWG) as I see it is a game that rewards you for not playing it after you set it up. However the more time you waste playing it the more reward you will get until you can do nothing but go and read a book for an hour waiting for your actions to refill.
I am not talking down on these games or the players. I was playing Backyard Monsters before clash of clans. I was playing farmville when you had to "invite" people at gunpoint to fertilize your crops. There was even a DnD one that a whole bunch of my friends and I played where you needed friends to beat bosses and what not. These were all great, but all IWGs you were rewarded for simply starting an account and checking on it every so often, unless you are one of those gullible assholes that falls for freemium.... But that is a rant for an other time.
So anyway I have recently gotten into an IWG called Clicker Heroes, which is great for that exact thing. It does have a freemium option, but rewards active play enough that I find the idea to be stupid. It s great to just let run in the back ground and only check back in every couple of minutes, or hours, or whatever. This game starts by making you play in the form of *gasp* clicking and the first hero you can buy simply increases the damage you do with your clicks. However all of the ones past it increase DPS (Damage Per Second).
All the while as you level your heroes you are building toward hero souls which will also be rewarded by Primal Bosses... The number of hero souls you have increases your DPS, but you can also spend them on Ancients which have various benefits... Either way I have read the Clicker Heroes Wiki a few times and have gotten to the point where I ascend every 12-24 hours with 2000+ hero souls.
But that is off topic, if you like that style of game go and check it out. I have been playing for about 150 days at the time of writing this and still find it just as entertaining as when I started.
Go with hope in your eyes, piece in your heart, and a cobra in your belly. Walk tall in the name of the Honey Badger.
King out.
