Game Description

A Dark Room creates a roguelike experience within the incremental genre. It starts the game as a very simplistic interface, providing a single button to progress, but quickly integrates multiple resources, building construction, equipment, and more. It is available in both browser and iOS.

Resources
There are a wide range of resources that become available to the player as the game progresses. Notably, wood quickly becomes the most important, as it is required to keep the fire burning and to construct buildings. Other resources that come into player later on include meat for curing (which can then be used to keep the player fed during expeditions), leather, and steel.

Buildings
Huts are just the first building that become available, and will allow the player to receive population to help support the player's campsite. People that have moved into huts can be assigned jobs, from gathering wood to mining for coal. These jobs all produce resources, while some will also consume them. Raw meat, for example, will be consumed when producing cured meat.

Equipment
The player will be given the option of crafting equipment. There is a long list of items available to make, but they include weapons, armor, bags to carry more goods when on an expeditions, water reservoirs to carry more water, and more. These become vital to the progression of the player late game.
Alternatively, some items can be found while out on expeditions. Swords, guns, bullets, and more can be found from either felled enemies or hidden caches.

Expedition
Once the player has received a compass, they will be able to go out on an expedition. While out, the player must maintain enough food and water to ensure that they don't die. Water is consumed once ever step, while cured meat is consumed once every 4.
The player may randomly encounter enemies while outside the safety of the camp. As the player progresses further and further away, the enemies become stronger and faster, meaning that the player must ensure that they have enough skill to defend themselves. This will generally consist of arming themselves with better weapons (such as rifles).
Houses, caves, mines, and more can be found while out. If the player clears a location of enemies and reaches the end, they will generally be rewarded with a cache of items. This can include meat, but may also hold rarer items such as steel swords or grenades. Once the location has been cleared, it may be turned into a safehouse. Once a safehouse has been established, it will populate with a random amount of cured meat for the player to collect while out travelling. A safehouse can only be visited once per trip and will automatically replenish the player's water supplies.
Roads will be made from the safehouse back to the camp. While on roads, the player will not be attacked at all.

Anti Idle The Game

RPGA:TG (the proper abbreviation, of course) defies categorization into a single heading. There's an idle aspect as a baseline, of course, but there's also clicking (the button machine,) RPG aspects (the Battle Arena,) an Arcade mode, a collectable card game, and a number of other little features.The "anti" part comes into play with the bonuses you can get for actively playing certain features versus idling; active play in the Battle Arena lets you hit harder, actively harvesting the garden means you don't have to spend rare blue coins to do so, and actively fishing means you use your stamina more effectively.

RPGThe player works in a gold factory and must use their wages to purchase items to use in an RPG style game. The player can gather gold in a number of ways, by either helping their boss (killing rats or solving cryptograms) or performing tasks such as killing thieves while digging a hole. The game expands as the player progresses, allowing them to purchase swords for fighting, shovels for digging, or converting their gold bars into iron bars for other uses.The game was inspired by Candy Box and A Dark Room, and the styles of both of those games shine in this clicker.External LinksReddit

Clicker, IdlerAn interesting take on the incremental genre where the aim of the game is to fill a screen with pixels. This is done by either manually clicking for pixels or by buying oscillators to automatically place the pixels for you. Naturally, everything costs pixels to buy or upgrade.
