Idle Pins - Gameplay, Reviews & Similar Games

Idle Pins

Idle Pins is an incremental game about collecting Pins and building a stronger roster. Fuse two Pins to create an improved one; some merges produce a different Pin with its own traits. Arrange Pins in formations with different bonuses, slot counts, and slot types, then take them into combat against enemies. Explore zones and maps to gather materials and drops, and unlock crafting blueprints and additional features. Improve Pins by tuning their stats, leveling them, dismantling or synthesizing them, and use crafting to expand your options. Expeditions can uncover Tower floors with randomized enemies and loot. A prestige system lets you start a new season by giving up some progress in exchange for long-term upgrades.

Collect and merge Pins, arrange them into combat formations, and explore enemy zones for materials, crafting blueprints, and upgrades.

From the Devs

Tired of those incremental games where you have to buy the first highlighted upgrade without thinking? Do you enjoy the rewarding feeling after unlocking hard earned stuff?

THIS-IS-YOUR-GAME!

I've been working and updating this game in my free time, as a hobby, during the last two years. I want to thank the community for their support and feedback. Hope you enjoy it.

Fuse two Pins to get an improved and stronger version. Sometimes they will result in a completely new and different Pin!

Plan your strategy. Add Pins into a formation, each Formation with its own spcial bonus, slots amount and slot types. Choose the best combination for each situation.

Explore different locations. Each with their own enemies, materials, and drops. Advance through zones and maps to find new crafting blueprints and unlock new features!

Tune and improve your attack Pins stats like their power and HP or even the chance of multihit! Can you get S+ Rank tunes on all the 11 stats?

Follow the clues and unlock The Tower. Send expeditions to find new floors with randomized enemies and loot, keep the ones you like and build your own Tower!

Of course there is a prestige mechanic! Start a new season and sacrifice some progress to unlock over 200 powerful upgrades.
