Search for clues in this idle detective RPG that lives quietly in the corner of your screen.
Investigate crime scenes, gain clues, upgrade your stats, and grow stronger across ascensions while you go about your day.
I wanna like it but its really just not hitting any good incremental pacing. Progress is slow - which would be FINE - but it also requires near constant babysitting and menuing to actually have progress. Like it doesn't feel like a minimal idle game, its like "come back every 60 seconds and shift-buy more upgrades.
Also the key way of making money is...
37.4 hours in and I’m still playing Desktop Detective… Still haven’t prestige to the next true Ascension yet!
I honestly didn’t expect to sink this many hours into a game like this, but yet here we are….
every time I think “Alright, I’ll just play for a little bit,” I end up spending way longer than I planned.
This game is a really good idler to run...
far from an idler
Boring, unfortunately.
Nothing really happens on the screen so you don't feel like you are progressing said cases at all?
Only thing you do is watch the lil' fellow walk around and receive money for upgrades, but without any visual rewards.
I play lots of idle games its really fun. Slow at the beginning but just takes some time. Cant wait for more updates!
