Games like Melvor Idle, IdleOn and Idle Clans
If you enjoy idle games built around skills and steady progress, you probably know Melvor Idle, Legends of IdleOn and Idle Clans. All three are well loved. Whiskerfall sits in the same family, with its own twist on it.
What they share
- Melvor Idle is a single-player idle game built around RuneScape-style skills. If you like it, Whiskerfall has the same kind of 14 life skills to 99, gathering feeding crafting, with progress while you are away.
- Legends of IdleOn is a free idle MMO where you raise many characters at once. If you like it, Whiskerfall is also an idle MMO in a shared world, with one cat and 36 classes to grow it through.
- Idle Clans is a multiplayer idle game built around clans. If you like it, Whiskerfall has colonies that level up together, hold territory and feast, and a player-run Exchange.
What Whiskerfall does differently
- You can see the world. Zones are side-scrolling maps with ledges and ropes, and the other cats in them are really there, fighting the same monsters beside you.
- Combat is live. Your cat fights in real time, MapleStory-style: it runs, casts the skills on its bar in your order, dodges wind-ups and jumps between ledges. Leave it on full auto, or take over.
- Group content. World bosses wake for everyone every 3 hours, and five-cat dungeons have a tank, a healer and three damage dealers, with a Dungeon Finder.
- You're a cat. Breeds, classes like Clawguard and Purrbard, wardrobe looks, mounts from hedgehogs to robot vacuums, and a story about the Dreaming.
- Free, in the browser. Nothing to download, on any phone or computer. The Store sells looks only, never power.
