免费游玩的一款多人放置游戏 可以市场交易 加入公会 还可以组队挑战副本 总感觉很消耗时间 罢了罢了 纯属娱乐 开心就好。
Having looked through the different reviews I'll give my 2 cents and address the majority of the negative reviews at the same time. After playing over 30 idle games this has by far been the best experience. Any game with a chat will of course have their share of people you should just report or block, but in general the community is incredibly helpful! The game might seem simple at first, but if you invest some time into it you'll find that it can be incredibly complex with people having made extensions, tools, and even entire websites to calculate and optimize things to squeeze out anywhere between 1-200% extra of whatever they're trying to get - all out of love for the game and community, which speaks volumes. The game also offers two different game modes: Ironcow and Market cow. One can use the market and buy things from others whilst the other has to gather and craft their gear on their own (completely ignoring what happens on the market). Each type can only group with their own kind so there is no boosting between them. There is absolutely 0 P2W for ironcows, but a market cow can get coins by selling unopened bags of premium currency. The premium currency only buys cosmetics (unlocks the purchased cosmetic for all of your characters), QoL like extra offline time, more queued actions, or the Moopass that gives a mix of QoL and +5% exp for market cows (it provides no extra exp for ironcows so they remain 100% unaffected by what other people do). Any review complaining about P2W or money is simply a bad player, truly. The premium currency in the game is by far the easiest premium currency to earn out of any game I've played so far. The complaint about a subscription is completely useless when you realize 2 days is more than enough to get an entire month's worth for free and you can claim the first two weeks for free after which you can keep them running permanently for free... Before any "wah wah only old players can do that", you can literally get to that point in the first month. You're not expected to sit there actively playing it for hours a day. Just go with a class or skill you find interesting and check in from time to time. There is no special treatment for players, but I suspect some of the reviewers felt offended by something and then decided to go way overboard to get back at whoever offended them. Think someone calling one guy bad and the other returning with slurs or threats kind of thing; which is also why you need to play a little before being able to use the open chats (we all know the type of people who get banned would create more accounts just to be unhinged "adults"). Game is absolutely wonderful if you like idle games! You'll either love it or keep looking for that one game, but it's definitely worth trying :)

Unusual Free to play (with the optional paid options) Cow theme Idler. But it works. Moo. Quite Addictive.
Decent game but why do i have to grind the game for 10h to unlock chatting with other players? I simply wanted to ask people and learn that way like in any other online game, this made it too frustrating for me since i hate reading long guides
一发中文就封号,差评
The dev banned my gm because he dared to ask that he not be harassed by players that insulted and bullied him. This was the dev's comment. You are banned until 7/31/2036, 11:40:19 PM. Duration: 10y That is how he deals with being wrong. Avoid at all costs.
A nice idle game that has a good bit of content. Progress is fairly fast in the beginning of the game and slows down in later levels. The game's player market and rare drops really spice it up for me. Updates are slow, but well thought out and seem complete when they do come. Don't expect a short game that can be beaten in a couple hours. Pay to win is not needed as you aren't competing with others directly. The convenience that you can buy with the premium currency is nice, but the premium currency an either be earned in game or purchased with in game currency from whales that do buy the premium currency. I've been playing for well over a year at this point and have never spent a dime.
Milky Way Idle 在“模仿”梅尔沃放置(Melvor Idle)的同时做出了很多直达痛点的改进:① 简化了游戏系统的复杂度,特别是更少的消耗品和更简单的数值加成;② 引入了玩家市场机制交易多余物品,避免了临时缺少某样材料不得不去挂机的情况;③ 在 Idle 游戏中引入了社交、工会和组团战斗功能,客观上能够增加游戏黏性,但过低的监管能力也会带来偏袒、歧视和外挂倒卖等问题——无论如何,我建议你不要氪金也不要碰工会,那么银河奶牛放置无疑是零成本体验放置 RPG 的最好方式,毕竟这类游戏也全都是一眼望到头的东西。
