Idle and Incremental PC Games | Hidden Gems Ranked by Rating
Idle games are not games where you do nothing; they are games about deciding when to act. Some shrink into a corner of your desktop while you work. Others make the growth of the numbers the whole point. Many start manual and gradually hand control to automation. They begin light, yet hundreds of hours on record is common. This site also distributes a Japanese localisation kit for an idle RPG and follows the genre closely. The list ranks titles that hold a high rating with few reviews. Cats and Seek and Memory of Memorie, for example, hold a steady rating with fewer than 500 reviews.
6,084 titles match. 1,054 of them hold a steady rating on 10–500 reviews, 2,062 support Japanese, and 1,124 are free.
