After 1077 hours I have finally obtained every achievement and I am free. Good game. Highly recommended. Unless you have an addictive personality and tend to get absorbed into games and ignore your life, in which case this game is a very bad idea.

Browser game's still up and free, but this game sparked a genre and still is leagues above most other idle games, so it's worth dropping a few bucks to pay respect and keep improvements coming. I played the browser game for a decade, and now I'm gonna play both the browser and desktop versions for another decade. The quest for 100% Achievements continues, the Grandmatriarchs must be appeased. 🍪
