About
Smash treasure chests and overwhelm enemies with a shower of items!
Chest Buster is an incremental/idle combat game where you fight by destroying only treasure chests. Instead of hitting enemies directly, smash the chests in front of you. Items dropped from destroyed chests immediately boost your power without any inventory management. The higher the chest level, the more powerful the items that drop!
Upgrade your skills for explosive destructive power!
Use coins earned in battle to unlock new destructive weapons from the skill tree to smash chests more efficiently. Upgrades not only increase attack speed and power but also increase the number of chests, allowing you to gain even more loot. These skills and weapons are permanently retained even if you fall in battle, making you stronger with every repetition!
Aim for massive rewards with card flips and slot machines!
It's not just pure luck. It's a strategic system where you upgrade your skill tree to directly control your reward probabilities. Acquire explosively dropping loot and gain overwhelming firepower!
Eliminate enemies forever!
Completing the mission permanently removes that enemy and grants you permanent rewards!
Give traits to chests and create your own unique build!
Research various trait runes and combine them with chests to gain even more massive destructive power.
Arrange the runes to match your preferred style and complete your own build with optimal efficiency!

[/quote] 🔶 [b] Chest Buster is a idle game, collect chest, defeat enemies and collect new items & power through each run .[/b] 🔶 In this idle game, use your hammer to collect chest, for attack your enemies, or defeat yourself. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3765974371 Each hit on a chest and killing enemies let you get gold, for getting more active power (better hammer damage, faster hammer …), and more idle power (new additionnal automatic power, like a laser, shuriken, worker …) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3765975021 Each enemies killl let you unlock a mission asking to kill this same enemie with a specific challenge (no damage, under a certain time, not using your active power (hammer) …), completing this challenge allow to be stronger, and skip this enemies battle in next run … There also some minor cutscene, after certain condition done, to unlock new hidden power from a demonic force : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3765975881 Game take around 6 hours to complete, with steam achievement to unlock, a great content for the price asked. Overall, A great little idle game, with many way to powerup and fast original way to skip already completed battles, making you always want to start a new run ! 💚💚💚 Many way to powerup (skill tree, chest leveling, enemies challenge) Great way to skip already completed run.

上班偷偷摸鱼的游戏,还挺好玩。 最后打完BOSS可以再开一次,有对话可以解锁!
This is an absolute slog. So for the start of the game, it'll take a good long time for you to kill the first enemy... Get used to this. The gameplay doesn't really evolve much and it takes a long time for you to get anywhere. Even when you're killing the last boss of the game, you're not really very powerful. When you have everything unlocked, you can still get stronger.... but only slightly stronger, a little bit after a LOT of grinding. This game is deliberately padded out to take a lot longer than it should. (Note, take 3 hours off my play time when looking at how long to beat, I left it on in the background while talking to my psychiatrist, Woops.) The last bosses are just boring. You have to arrange the buffs on your chests to get the best outcome, but you're limited with what to put on them. I arranged it so there was a sword getting +4 in the middle, with 3 swords getting +2 and a shield getting a +2 as well. And I arranged it so everything had at least a +1. Now, this won't make sense to someone not playing the game, but basically. I can't think of a better way to arrange things, and I was still losing quite a lot to the last boss. It's not like there's a lot you can do, move your cursor around to highlight chests, click on bombs as soon as they appear. And.... that's it. So it was literally just, didn't have enough stats, after beating all of the rest of the game, to deal with the very last boss. It took a long time to beat that one.... and then it turned out that wasn't in fact, the last boss. There was another boss. So I had to beat that one..... then another final boss. Like, game... you were outstaying your welcome with the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ slime, stop pushing your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ luck... I did finally get every achievement. But I will never be playing this again. There's no replay value, because of course there's not, you highlight chests. You don't even click on them, you highlight them. It's 4-5 hours of highlighting chests and being bored. That's the entire game. Do you really want to spend money on that? That's entirely up to you, but I'd recommend against it. Thanks for reading, or skipping to the end. Whether or not you agree with me, I hope you have a lovely day. Now to play something better.... I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hope. Because the dev is human, I do want to state at least one positive... The rabbit merchant is cute. That's all.
Not worth it. The start is pretty slow for an incremental and the received items/automation are quite basic and boring. Monster behavior is repetitive and later upgrades are only stat improvements. Overall a more or less boring experience which I would not recommend
Idle & Incremental Lovers warmly recommends Chest Buster: [i] Absolutely fantastic game design, so many clever and creative ideas, and so well implemented. Perfect pacing, five hours of pure fun with amazing mechanics. Also, plot twist after plot twist after... [/i] + The concept of smashing chests as the main game mechanic is so fun. I knew it just by watching the trailer, I was like WHY DID NO ONE HAVE THIS IDEA BEFORE? + Gambling is one of the most fun gaming mechanics (as long are there isn't real money involved, damn you, not-so-F2P sharks!). So why not give the players resources through picking random cards or activating kind of a "slot machine"? Yep, that's a great idea too, and IT'S IN DA GAME. + Permanently removing enemies is such a great feature, allowing the player to shorten the runs by skipping the easiest enemies. Using this creative feature to reward the player with chests containing perks (and unlocked with keys, a ressource you collect during your runs) is pure genius. EINSTEIN LEVEL OF GENIUS. + IIRC, the ending sequence is like Totally surprising (no it's totally not) plot twist into conventionnal plot twist into "always click on continue even if the game is over" plot twist into "I'll never trust this dev again when he tells me it's over" plot twist into "beat the game 3 more times to be really sure there's nothing more" plot twist. - Note to the dev: there is a minor bug where you sometimes can't upgrade your skills+ unless you quit and relaunch the game. This is late game and should be easily fixed, but it may discourage some players if they think it's completely broken. ***What do you call a picture of a chest?

インゴットは周り強化とポーションとシールド必須ですね… 後は剣があれば嬉しい 全クリできました…最後の方は「はーめんどくせぇ…」という気持ちですが 終わったので良かったです 鍵とインゴット稼ぎが欲しいのと 最後の方は使い道がないゴールドを交換するのが欲しかったかな… 一日は楽しめるゲームでした ―――――――――――――――――――――――――― 金は余るのでインゴットで金は作らなくていい! ツリー完成させれるのはかなり早い 鍵が全然足りない、鍵稼ぎとかも考えたほうがいい 永久強化は最低でも全部120以上がいい
이게 왜 재밌는 거지??? 상자를 때리면서 자동사냥으로 적을 줘패는 게임 극후반부가 정말 토나오게 노가다가 걸린다 했는데, 패치 노트를 보니 강화가 제대로 안 되는 오류 때문이었던 거 같네요. 어쩐지 세져도 세진 거 같지가 않더라니. 그 부분이 수정됐다고 한다면 조금은 문제가 해결되었을듯? 그럼에도 여전히 근본적으로 해결되진 않았을 거 같아서, 최종 보스 HP를 한 10%만 깎으면 훨씬 나을 거 같긴 합니다. 그리고 한 가지 더 제작자님꼐 부탁드리자면, 극후반부 주괴(철?) 요구량을 좀 낮추거나 한계선을 만들어 주셨으면 합니다. 게임을 맨 끝까지 웬종일 했는데도 모든 업그레이드를 구매하지 못했습니다. 한 번 업그레이드에 철괴를 2400개, 2500개, 2600개 이런 식으로 요구하니 도저히 다 살 수가 없네요. 한 1500개쯤에서 상한선을 두는 게 어떨까요 ㅠ 게임 자체는 정말 왜 재밌는지 이해가 안 가지만 재밌었습니다. 자동사냥류 게임이 정말 많은데, 비슷하게 자동사냥이었던 Slay All Bosses: Idle 같은 게임과는 달리 이 게임은 전투 자체는 자동이더라도 내가 능동적으로 호버링 공격을 통해 상자를 열어줘야 해서 '게임을 플레이한다'는 체감이 은근히 와닿았던 거 같습니다. 번역도 생각보다 잘 되어있고, 전혀 기대하지 않았기에 더 놀랐습니다. 너무 즐겁게 했습니다.
어느순간 반복되는 구간이 찾아오면 재미가 급감함 신박하고 재밌었지만 그건 내가 이런 유형을 처음 겪어봐서 그랬을 뿐, 그게 오래가진 않았음. 어쨌든 도전과제는 다 밀었지만, 일정 구간부턴 그냥 반복인건 아쉬웠음..., 시각적 이팩트 부족인건지 어쨌는지, 암튼 아쉬운게 있었음. 아쉽다 뿐이지 그래도 재밌게 하긴 함.
J'ai passer un bon moment.
Has more to it than you would imagine by lookin at the trailer and screenshots. Nice game. Well worth the money.
