Idle Guy Reviews

Where do I even begin? Let’s start with my first interaction with this joke of a “game”: the advertisements. the ads for this game are making you think this is a game where you can pick choices and have reactions… WRONG. This is an ad harvesting “game” that basically forces you to watch ads to win lol… this technique is arguably worse than pay to win. For example… you get the choice to rob a bank (watch an ad to choose) or work as a cashier. If you don’t choose to watch the ad and rob the bank, you will LOSE items and opportunities. But don’t worry because you can watch an ad to get a second chance… so… let’s get this clear… you will watch an ad to save your game (which takes days btw; they will end your game and u will lose everything and have to restart) AND watch ANOTHER ad to rob the bank then play for like 2 minutes (these next 2 minutes are the closest thing to calling this a game) then you will meet another ad wall choice that forces you to watch the ad or lose, essentially. Now let’s talk about the elephant in the room… this game is written so trashy… (think 50 yr pervert in a trailer) everything is so raunchy and cheap like it’s shockingly brain rot… within 5 minutes of downloading your first girlfriend is a blow-up doll. Seriously lol? You don’t have the choice to be respectful, you literally have to be a trashy, perverted bum…The whole story is so predictable and so sexual… to sum it up, it’s like Bitlife (another ad harvesting; watch ads = win “game”) but if Bitlife was animated and on a $100 budget…

Starting out on the good: the game is fun, it's easy to progress through and I think it stands out amongst other idle games with different career paths and options, but also opportunities to redeem yourself if you fail. But the big issue I have consistently had since I started was that after you play for a bit, you'll complete a task and then you get the little scrolling circle that indicates that the game is processing or loading, except that it gets stuck "processing" and you are unable to move forward with the game. The only fix is restart your phone, and you lose your progress and/or reward for performing the action or watching the ad. At first I thought it was possibly an issue with my phone's connectivity or Wi-Fi, but I ruled that out. This issue would happen occasionally when I first started playing, but I noticed as I progressed through the levels that it was happening more frequently. eventually it was happening every time I won money at the casino or "lucky game", tried to take the quiz to graduate from schooling, or whenever a character appeared to offer a choice for a career upgrade or change. These issues rendered the game unplayable.

I was just typing a review until suddenly… IT MOVED ME OUT!?!?!? Ok now I am really mad. I spent like 5-10 Minutes full on trying to wright a review then I get Kicked out like Idk if it’s a Apple glitch or something but man this game kinda ruined my Day but now to bad but As I was saying in my Review and a Problem with other’s GamePlay I am missing a head And my character is all the way back to Cloth 1 and is Headless even tho I bought the *Taylor made Cloth* And I tried refreshing and things but still doesn’t work so idk if this is a Problem-Lag Problem or something but it really catches me Off-Guard and plus I was just having a Peaceful day until I long on then… BOOM I am headless with starter clothes like I was thinking *Hey, maybe it is just a Game glitch so I will just Log-in then Log-out* And I did that but I didn’t know it was a Problem for other players As well and I didn’t know Developers were doing nothing But still I do love this game but just I want that patch to be out so or a update all on GamePlay, Strategy, Money, and More. Like it is a great game and I do recommend getting it [If you have long detention spans] but If you hate glitches I recommend NOT GETTING IT Because it looks like it has a lot of Hate because of Glitches so if you are a Player who loves games but hates glitches I recommend not to get this game but if you are ok with Glitches then get it like it really isn’t my choice to pick If you should get it or not but I am not making statements I am just saying this Glitch of Starter clothes and Being headless kinda drives me insane and I started maybe a Few weeks ago and I have been Ok but ever since that Happened I started playing other games that don’t really do that Glitches and Yes You might be ok with this glitch but really it’s just deleting all your clothes [In Real Life] being stuck with a Dumb looking cloth and Cutting you head WIDE Open. So I will just recommend not to get it and that will be my Review. For now…

The game is entertaining for a day or so until you figure out the nature of the game. I made millions within the first two days and didn’t even need to do the stupid upgrades. The formula of the game is to keep you on a runaway train but once you realize you don’t need to follow the game path they start shorting you on the rewards, not cool. You either get spoon fed the plot and never get out of poverty or you master the game early like I did and make millions with in the first couple of days. And there is not enough interaction with your significant other to keep it at least a little entertaining who is just another prop to get you to spend money. Hint: once you get to play roulette always bet one token on black and the other on red, you can’t lose. The overall composition is geared toward 12 yr olds that never took courses in economics. If you are older than that the game is very poor. Good premise but bad follow through. I deleted the game on my fourth day because it was’t worth the memory space on my iPad. To the developers: figure out your audience and either make it adult oriented or sesame street. You can’t mix both and expect good results. It becomes pointless really quickly. I think it has a high rating because they solicit you to rate the game constantly in the first couple of sessions when you are broke, which was kinda entertaining. Good for a minute but not compelling enough to keep you engaged more than a few times playing.

The game is good but it gets stale fast. There’s nothing to do but increase your income, while also increasing your spending (hopefully at a slower rate) to get better jobs that pay more. Having multiple wives is recommended to keep your health and happiness high. It gets stale quick once you get into the millions of dollars you’re making a month where it’s just rinse and repeat over and over until the game ends and there’s nothing you get afterwards. It’s just starting over. So I suggest against anyone spending money on the game.. if anything it’ll just make you get bored of the game faster. Game definitely needs some added features or life events. Wives are very stale they just want some vacation once in a while or want some sort of gift and then boom they’re fine. Small businesses are pretty much a waste of money imo, stocks are only good for buying large businesses. Most of your money early on will be real estate and end game will be real estate after you bought out big businesses.

You can see my initial review below, when they demanded a review only a few minutes into the game in exchange for rewards.

After playing a bit more, the forced ads do ramp up, but slowly, so it’s not too terrible. But the ads that you choose to watch become more and more obligatory—make a choice where two options are obviously terrible and the third requires watching an ads; watch an ad for nearly 10 hours worth of income right after the stuff you need to buy to advance has gone up by almost 1000% instead of about 50% so you need that income; etc.

That still wouldn’t be so bad, but more than half the time, when you watch the ad, you don’t get the rewards; the game freezes with a spinner popup that never goes away, so you have to kill and relaunch the game, at which point you’re back to before you watched the ad. The third time I tried to pick up and play the game for a few minutes during a break and ended up having to watch a 90-second ad, kill IdleGuy , relaunch it, and watch another ad to progress, I decided that I know the game well enough to rate it. My initial guess of 2 stars was right on the money.

I get the feeling that the game is going to ramp up either the forced ads, or the waiting that you have to pay to skip. So far, it’s not too bad—but that’s after only a few minutes. The fact that they want to reward me for rating the game this early, before I’ve gotten a chance to find out if it’s any good, is not a good sign. Hey, if it is a decent game, I’ll come back and increase the rating later. But at this point I’m guessing it’s 2 stars at best.

i love the storyline and the process of progressing throughout the story, but let me tell you, the developers of this game had to be makin BANK with the amount of ads i HAD to watch to get through the story. you MUST like you actually HAVE to watch ads to get through the game, if you don’t, you lose everything and start over again. at some point you’ll be able to bring in a profit of like 1-3k a month if you’re smart, but most of the time you’re living while losing anywhere from 1k-150k a month. which again, forces you to watch ads so you don’t lose what you worked for. how can they expect you to buy an 8 million dollar plane when your salary is like 50-75k? by watching an unbelievable amount of ads.

The main goal is to become the head of the world bank, but once you get there, nothing happens. the game just continues i guess. so i’m just supposed to sit there and stare at the screen until my character dies ig. just disappointed the story led to nothingness.

however i’m interested in what the stock market will bring to this game. should be interesting but i’m uninstalling. i must’ve given them about 1k in ads alone lol. so disappointed.

NAH! It’s THAT cool and all but I’m only going to say this, not to seem hypocritical and stuff but I fear the game, lacks, you guessed it, COON UPS! I need to be real honest, the game sort of in a way is based on “coon ups,” (like a form of upgrading but from a more specific perspective) and also I do not feel that I can say what I did without mentioning that! Now, “coon ups!” Are a type of upgrade that is clandestine in nature and involves people from virtually all demographics sort of in large numbers, kind of like, “blending in,” as to be like coon hunters! You find out they be in line for this ideal type of service, food bank Distrubution, or like, free blankets or perhaps an opening of a new store, well this type of idea only when they would receive usually say for instance a free burger, they would get a burger and also a “coon up,” which can be a rather large sum of “secretly expected” cash or other valuable item or surprise gift of much value compared to the donated goods and surplus items which are given away as well alongside the “coon ups,” being the notoriously “clandestine” reasoning for the seemingly random “pop up” tent, drive up or walk up service of some regular looking type. So that would be cool to get those into the game I think!!

I grinded on this game didn’t spend any money, just watched ALOT of ads to get by. Towards the end no matter what I did the ads couldn’t save me because all of the sudden you start going into negative balance that keeps adding up no matter what I tried to do. I reached job level 57 I believe around there when I died, there were times I would watch ads to rank up my job to make more money to get out of the negatives but even ranking up a few times It still constantly racked up the ongoing negative balance.
Let’s just say I was towards the end but was forced to die because every time you level up towards the end the more costs is taken out of your balance. I reached career level 57 around there and making $200k a month but my monthly cost was over $300k a month, that kept on racking up in the negatives, because I leveled up since it’s a task, but died bc I leveled up, I had to get a chopper that cost atleast 3mil while racking up the negative balance, so no money to spend on my health to live, even when I watched ads it couldn’t save me.

In the end I made it so far but got screwed, died, and the game restarted from the beginning. Game was fun, but I’m sad I lost everything because I died. I guess nothing left to do besides uninstall the game because I am not starting all over again because I died.

I love this game, ever since I downloaded this game and it’s been fun but it has a game changing glitch. So I am at a spot where I have to buy the “Premium Car” which is 75k. I have to use a side job to get 4K per like 2 minutes but that is fine. It gets really irritating towards the end. About five minutes ago I got to 73k, I need one more month to have enough. Then suddenly- blank. I get teleported out of IdleGuy . The first time this happened I was just confused and went back into the game. I got into the game and realized something, it was ALL gone. I was right back to the amount of money I had when I joined the game, 15k. This has happened twice and it makes me wanna pull my hair out. In total I’ve wasted around 1 and a half hours just sitting on the couch, and no the wait to get to 73k WAS NOT fun. I have good attention span but it doesn’t mean the wait was fun. The weird thing is, EVERYTHING was back to where it was. My age, happiness, health, and like I said, money. I don’t know if this is a glitch with the game or Apple, but this is getting on my last nerve. I know these game developers won’t probably see this, or see it in time, but it’s getting super freaking annoying and I recommend fixing it to save a couple thousands of players.

I really do like this game a lot it is quite entertaining. The only issue I have with it is I wish there were not so many ads. In the beginning of the game it is quite challenging to stay positive also seems to be a weird glitch that when I add up how much money I am making versus spending it shows I should be in the positive yet every month I’m actually losing money. It forces me to have to watch the ads in I really do like this game a lot it is quite entertaining. The only issue I have with it is I wish there were not so many ads.

I’ve been playing for a while so far and I think it’s pretty fun. The only issue I have which idk if it’s a glitch going on or what but I’ve started having issues with it. At first the game started acting weird to where it would tell me to get a sports car but nothing will show up to where I can choose an option and it would completely get stuck on that page to where I would have to close out and it would still do the same thing so I deleted and redownloaded it and so now I’ve started over and currently it’s not realizing that I’ve already completed a job so it’s like I’m doing the same thing over and over. Makes me not even want to play the game anymore so I hope whatever it is, you guys can fix it.

I found out about this game via Pizza Ready and I thought that the ad looked pretty bad but I was curious since I read the reviews. IdleGuy is definitely better than the ad suggestions, and I can understand why many people would find this game enjoying. Although I did enjoy the game, it’s not really my style. I would suggest for the game developers and whoever is marketing the game, to change the ad to something more consumer friendly and not mainly targeted towards the male demographic, since I’m a woman and thought the ad was degrading, but the game’s storyline is much better than it suggests. I wish you good luck in the further.

Love this game so much I stopped playing all of my other games! I’m on my last section of goals, and while I still have a lot to do and max out, I’m wondering what to do after? Normally I’d move onto the next game but I feel like creators are missing out on future profits!! I should be able to have kids, that’s more avenues to spend money, if I split with a girl with a kid I could have another payment (support). Just needs something to keep up on playing once you achieve everything. And maybe the kids can take over once your character dies, or you can start over. Just an idea! Good game otherwise

Working at a car wash can be a fast-paced and physically demanding job, but it also has its rewards. As a car wash attendant, your primary responsibilities would involve operating the various machines and equipment to clean and dry vehicles that come through the facility. This includes starting up the conveyor belt, applying soap and water, using high-pressure hoses, and drying cars with large blowers. You would need to work quickly and efficiently to keep the line of cars moving, while also ensuring a thorough and spotless clean on each vehicle. The job requires being on your feet for long hours and being able to withstand the noise and wet conditions. However, it can also be satisfying to see the transformation of a dirty car into a shiny, clean one thanks to your efforts. Working at a car wash can provide valuable customer service experience and a steady paycheck, making it a viable option for those seeking an entry-level position in the automotive services industry.

Yeah yay yeah yeah yeah yeah I love it I just don’t think it’s a big thing I don’t want it to be like a big one lol I just don’t think I have a problem I don’t think it’s a big thing but it’s a hard thing and it’s a big thing for you to be a part of the life of Jesus and I don’t know if I have a big deal but I’m just not saying anything to you my brother and I love his brother and his brother is in the rueirueowuw so he is so proud wye when wyeiwyw wy the church has been in church for about church for church prayer center church center center for the church center church for worship center in north north park church church park north church church park park center park north park mount north north church center park park center church center park park north park park hdyeywy mount north church park north park center church park center

Enjoyable funny story and funny jokes that are fun to read but also interesting and funny at times but I can’t stop laughing at the jokes that you see in the comments lol it’s funny how the people who are funny laugh about them but they don’t even try to be funny or anything funny and then laugh about them so they just don’t get mad and then you just laugh at them and laugh at me because I don’t like funny jokes so it’s kind of funny and I just kind of laugh about it but it’s funny to laugh at them because it’s hilarious because they laugh at me sometimes because they don’t even though I don’t like them so funny because they don’t like funny

To be honest, the game is pretty good, but it does have one flop literally for everything there’s an ad he want to level up there’s your skills there’s an ad you want to get more shovels or casino chips there’s an ad and everything is paid to win an extremely expensive but it is a fun life simulator game. I asked that you guys give more things and more money because when you are broke, it is extremely hard to make money even though I have high levels please stop making it so paid to win it should be actually fun not just a money sucker

I didn’t expect to enjoy Life Simulator: Idle Guy as much as I did, but this game really pulls you in! It’s a simple yet engaging idle life simulation where you get to guide your character through different stages of life—from working odd jobs to building a full career, upgrading your lifestyle, learning new skills, and even managing relationships.

What I love most is how rewarding it feels to level up your character. Every decision matters, and you really get to see your progress in both money and personal development. It’s like watching a mini version of real life unfold—minus the stress!

The game is easy to pick up, doesn’t require constant attention, and still gives that satisfying feeling of growth. Plus, the art and interface are fun and user-friendly.

If you enjoy idle games with a purpose and like seeing your choices shape a character’s journey, I definitely recommend giving this one a try. It’s fun, chill, and surprisingly motivating!

Loved it, you don’t have to watch ads to get out of the red if you spend your money wisely. A few times I got in the red but I didn’t play and let my money save up and invested it until I could reach the final 4million dollar plane. Now I have more money than I could count but I’m out of levels and jobs to continue with. Pretty sure that means I won the game but I’d love to keep playing anyways.

Tip: just because you have the money doesn’t mean you should spend it right away to level up, keeping money in the bank is how u don’t go red
