More than four out of five veterans who sink over 25 hours can’t resist the call to log back in every day. Shorter stints, however, leave roughly one in three players unconvinced they’ve gotten their money’s worth.

What it's about: A Lovecraftian idle RPG with auto-battles, loot farming, chests, team strategy, town building, gear crafting, Runewords, stages, towers, realms, and seasons. Serve the Old Gods, build your town, corrupt the chosen, and fight for their awakening!

What creators say (YouTube)

1 review videos analyzed: 0 positive0 mixed1 negative

Les joueurs et les créateurs s'accordent sur les points forts du gameplay, très apprécié par une majorité, mais divergent radicalement sur la qualité globale du jeu : les joueurs soulignent un contenu riche et un prix justifié, tandis que les créateurs pointent des problèmes de performance et une expérience globalement décevante. Les deux groupes critiquent l'interface, mais les joueurs la jugent de manière plus nuancée, contrairement aux créateurs qui la rejettent sans réserve.

Strengths

  • Idle loops and stat-driven builds weave an obsessive loop for marathon sessions: 59 positive mentions out of 75
  • Reviewers consistently tag the price as justified for the breadth on offer: 12 positive mentions out of 14
  • Veterans in the 25+ hour bracket end up hooked, with 83% heaping praise on the experience

Weaknesses

  • Sessions clocking under 10 hours tend to fizzle—only 63% of 2-10 hour players leave satisfied
  • The interface trips up users, drawing 3 negative mentions out of 11 total
  • Bugs and balance issues still trip up a vocal minority at endgame: 1 negative mention out of 5

Who is it for?

Long-haul planners who chase layered progression and idle mechanics will thrive here. Quick-hit dabblers risk disappointment.

Is Path of Idle: Old Gods Rising worth it in 2026?

Mostly yes, if its flaws don't put you off: 76% of 691 Steam reviews are positive (player score 73/100). Most-praised strength: Idle loops and stat-driven builds weave an obsessive loop for marathon sessions. Current price: 10,25€.

Verdict

Old Gods Rising stakes its claim as a hardcore idle RPG where persistence pays off. Whoever dives deep tends to fall in love, while the rest may need time—or a UI refresh—to see past early friction.
