## Description

Idle Skilling is a hardcore idle game bursting with content. It features mining, fishing, crafting, pet breeding and battling, lab research, soul farming, regular farming, flower growing, potion making, and relic upgrading, offering a rich loop of progression.

It also adds treasure hunting, construction, crusade boss battles, equipment smithing, achievements, two separate prestige mechanics, and more. It's more complex than typical idle games, but the depth and rewarding loops make it incredibly fun.

## Review summary

Idle Skilling attracts players with addictive idle progression, a long-running appeal, and praise for the developer. The core rebirth/ascend loop is engaging when bugs aren’t blocking progress. However, multiple reviewers report major mobile-port issues: iOS realm/afterlife updates are delayed or unavailable, progression can stall due to persistent bugs, data is not safely saved (no cloud save or restore purchases), and cross-platform syncing is missing, complicating long-term play. Update abandonment and inconsistent fixes also dampen the experience. When functioning, it’s enjoyable; as-is, ongoing issues hinder sustained enjoyment.

### Pros

- Engaging idle progression with a satisfying numbers-go-up feel (rebirth/ascend keeps it fresh).
- Long-running appeal and nostalgia; many players view it as a real game, not a cash grab.
- Supportive developer and willingness to purchase to support.
- Rebirth/ascend mechanics add ongoing gameplay value.

### Cons

- Realm/Afterlife updates are unavailable or delayed on iOS, so realms can't be accessed despite update notices.
- No cloud save and no straightforward way to restore purchases, risking lost progress.
- Frequent bugs block progression (tutorial loops, realm gating, crafting/portal issues) and fixes are slow or inconsistent.
- Cross-platform syncing is missing (no Steam crossplay, no cross-device save), complicating long-term progress.
