Gem Clicker: the classic incremental loop
Tap anywhere to chip a gem into shards, then spend them on better picks and a ladder of auto-miners that produce shards every second. A golden gem drifts past now and then for a burst of shards or a short frenzy, achievements add small permanent bonuses, and when a run slows down you can Polish the gem to start over with a lasting multiplier. When you come back, part of what your miners would have earned is added as offline earnings, up to a cap.
Sunny Acres: an idle farm
Sunny Acres grows in real time even when you leave. Choose seeds or the watering can and drag across the soil: empty plots are planted, growing ones watered so they grow twice as fast, and ripe ones harvested, then fill orders to expand the farm.
Playing at a comfortable pace
Incremental games are designed to always offer one more upgrade, so decide on a stopping point, such as the next prestige or a full set of orders. Progress is saved, so closing the game does not lose a run.
Questions about clicker games
Do idle games keep earning when I close them?
Gem Clicker credits part of your production as offline earnings when you return, up to a cap, and Sunny Acres crops keep growing in real time.
What does prestige mean in a clicker game?
Prestige resets your current run in exchange for a permanent bonus. In Gem Clicker it is called Polish and each one makes later runs faster.
