Gameplay
The player is a new hire at Apocalypse Inc and is responsible for helping develop apocalyptic minions using a simulation that the company has developed.
Each level presents a new scene with objects that can be destroyed by minions to farm resources including a central structure that must be destroyed to progress to the next level.
The strength of the obstacles and the defenders protecting them increase with each level and the player must use their collected resources on upgrades to keep pace. The resource scaling follows a typical Incremental Idle pattern, so numbers get very large very quickly.
New minions, environments, and upgrades are unlocked as the player progresses.
Monetization
Follows the standard free-to-play monetization pattern for idle games.
Players are rewarded with a variety of in-game currencies as they progress through the game that can be spent on upgrades to aide their progress. Periodically, they are presented with opportunities to increase their earnings by watching rewarded ads.
A rarer premium currency (gems) can be used to purchase power ups that provide temporary boosts to productivity in a visually stimulating way. Players can watch rewarded ads for small amounts of this currency or use real world money to purchase more.
