Paradise Architect: Idle Tycoon

TL;DR - It's okay! Functionally good clicker / idler game for $2. I'd say it's worth it to support the dev. I like this game. It has quirks and I could see it becoming good with updates. The good: - Upgrades feel rewarding in what they give the player in terms of a cash reward. - Clicking is good (yes, autoclickers work!) - The art is cute, each upgrade does something visually on the main game screen. - Clickable balloons and UFOs to get a cash bonus are cool. - The IDEA of quests (find more on quests in the meh) is cool. Quests are a hidden object game built into the main screen of Paradise Architect. I love this! The meh: - No real "tutorial" or explanations of what is going on. - The upgrades kinda seem arbitrary. There are 4 different menus which all upgrade idle cash, but only one which upgrades clicking cash. - Quests are boring, repetitive, and take too long to complete. It would be more interesting for them to either be shorter (max 3-5?) or to have every item appear on the ...

there is a potential to improve the game

Nice, classic type clicker.

The music is great but the gameplay is not great. I still feel good about purchasing and supporting anyone who makes idle games, they are my fav!

Hard to recommend. 1). There is some suspicion among people who have reached the late game that the "Take 1000/2500/5000 income" achievements are broken. This is because currently 0% of people have earned those achievements, and while the interpretation of those achievements are ambiguous, its hard to believe no one has earned them. 2). The game's current mechanics are basic enough there isn't much to aim for other than achievements. I don't even think there's a reset mechanic currently. Hoping this game improves but until it does I can't recommend a purchase. Especially since this feels like an early access idle game, and its not in EA. I can't recommend this as a finished idle game.
