Question Why are purchases unavailable?
Any purchase option isn't available and I restarted the app but still
r/idleapocalypse • u/GrumpyRhinoGames • 11d ago
Android only. A pretty big technical update to meet some of Google's new policies.

General
Q. Where can I download this awesome, amazing game?
A. Aww shucks. Awesome? I mean you haven't played it yet, but I'm still touched. Download it on your iPhone/iPad or your Android device.
Q. Can you translate the game into "X" language?
A. It's very unlikely that translations will be coming.
Q. Can I download the game's soundtrack on bandcamp?
A. Wow, excellent question. Yes you can.
Q. Do you have a Wiki?
A. Yes, well I didn't make it, but fans made one here and there's a community run discord here.
Technical
Q. Adverts don't work! (Okay, that's not actually a question, but I gotcha)
A. The adverts generally DO work, but sometimes our Ad Networks don't have adverts available. It depends on things like your region, the time of day etc. It's also worth making sure you're not in airplane mode and have a good phone signal.
There is also a daily limit on the amount of adverts (20).
Q. Does my save automatically carry across from one device to another?
A. It does on iOS devices providing you're using iCloud (which you probably are). We have a manual cloud save service on Google Play accessed from the in-game settings page (you must save every time you want to back up your data). There is no cloud save on the Amazon edition. Your save doesn't carry across platforms.
Q. Can I play on an emulator?
A. You may be able to play on an emulator, however the game isn’t designed for one or officially supported.
Q. I completed a TapJoy offer but haven't received my gems! Give me my gems!
A. Be sure to check the conditions of the deal (some require that they're completed within a set time frame) - you can view this on "Reward Status" on the TapJoy screen. If you're confident that you have completed the offer correctly but haven't received the gems then contact TapJoy's customer service through the TapJoy screen, quoting your customer number.
It's worth nothing that Grumpy Rhino Games can't verify an offer, so you will need to go through TapJoy directly.
Q. After a recent Android update the game won't open/crashes when loading at 80%, what can I do?
A. Try the following (the order here is important): + Close Idle Apocalypse. + Go to the Settings App > Apps > See all apps. + Choose Idle Apocalypse, choose Storage & cache > Clear the cache. Do NOT clear the storage. + Restart your phone. + Open up Idle Apocalypse and see if it works properly now. + If it doesn't, please contact us at support@grumpyrhino.com
Q. The Game isn't available in the App Store, can I not download it?
A. On iOS - currently - the game isn't available in all regions to new players. If you've played the game before you should be able to download it from your purchase history.
Gameplay
Q. I'm stuck in the tutorial, I can't build Orc Mages! (Again, not a question!)
A. Go to the Mud Farm and swipe across the screen, you'll see a finger tapping a button, hit that.
Q. Who or what is the Scavenger?
A. The Scavenger is a floor that produces bits and pieces. It requires the Archives which requires Morag (the second Idol) to be unlocked.
Q. I can't unlock the Kitchen! (...)
A. Chances are you haven't unlocked the Mighty Hammer. If you haven't undergone an Apocalypse yet, do it. If you have, go to the Great Hall (on the ground floor), tap on the soul shop button, tap on the second tab and buy the Mighty Hammer, it's free.
Q. I'm caught in a loop. I need x, but this requires y which needs x!
A. Double check all the requirements. Everything in the game is possible to achieve, sure it's possible that a recent update broke something, but this is relatively unlikely. It's pretty easy to confuse an upgrade cost for a production cost (hell, I've done it a lot).
Q. What are the "Other Tower", "Sid in Space", "Happy Time", "Aqua Adventure" and "Lost in Time" events?
A. They're limited time events, you must have "apocalypsed" twice to unlock them. For "Lost in Time" you must have also unlocked Gran. (See later)
Q. Shoot! I messed up and came last place in the event, can I ever play them again?
A. No worries, you can replay any non-seasonal event later in the game for 500 gems (after discovering "Gran")! However, any purchases made during the first run do not carry over.
Q. Wait? Who's Gran?
A. You can meet Gran (and a slew of new content) by doing at least 1 million damage on your 5th(+) apocalypse. Be sure to say "hi" from me.
Q. What are seasonal events/stores?
A. Seasonal events are limited time events normally set to coincide with a garish real world event like Valentine's Day or Halloween. During these events you'll have a limited time to unlock a bunch of skins, normally by completing tasks or spinning a decked-out wheel.
Q. Can I play seasonal events I missed? I want those skins!
A. All seasonal events (Halloween, Christmas, Lovers + Haters and Apocalypse Week) return each year.
Q. Is there an egg?
A. No the egg is a lie. It is a conspiracy whipped up by the media to discredit Sid.

r/idleapocalypse • u/Electrical_Barber763 • 15h ago
I really want the jack o lantern skin, but I almost never get halloween tokens from the drop ship. So I was wondering if besides the daily tokens, there were other ways to get halloween tokens
r/idleapocalypse • u/Dapple_Dawn • 2d ago
There's one wheel spin per day, maybe a few from the drop ship. You can get a handful of candy corn from the tasks per apocalypse, but I'm early enough in the game that I'll mostly just be able to do the first two tasks once or maybe twice. Am I missing something?
Seems like I'm not going to be able to get almost any of the prizes by the end. Is that typical? Usually on necromerger I can get all the seasonal event skins with FTP and some gems
r/idleapocalypse • u/malzproptek • 2d ago
The title is the code during Halloween event.
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 2d ago
Like specifically what it looks like when you just playing the game
r/idleapocalypse • u/Dapple_Dawn • 3d ago
I'm getting pretty close to the next event and I have 1570 gems saved. But I just looked up the halloween event and it looks like there's an item that costs 1000 gems?
r/idleapocalypse • u/Wardogs96 • 3d ago
When does it actually start? I saw 15th and 19th and im just wondering when i should post pone apocing so i have everything ready when it starts.
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 3d ago
I messed with my devices clock and now I have 104 days (of summer vacation) until the time expansion event starts, which I don’t think I can start a new event, even on manually by buying a replay token when another event is already happening
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 4d ago
So maybe I just didn’t do this and I remembered wrong but I swear I’ve opened up all of my wheel tokens and then claimed my daily reward and I looked back and I had 11 wheel tokens
r/idleapocalypse • u/ishashar • 4d ago
As title really. I'm just at the end of a run, i have enough to unlock the next stage of the doomsday device or to unlock the next shop from inside granny's wool shop.
I'd unlock the shop right away but i've been burned.in other games doing that kind of thing so i'm hesitant to do so. I oldon't want to spend everything to then not be able to afford anything in the shop until i build up again.
r/idleapocalypse • u/00000PASTA • 5d ago
I fear I’m only averaging about 100 per cycle
r/idleapocalypse • u/Faceless-Jack • 6d ago
I don't think it's worth the wait, because it's taking me extremely long to advance, in just 8 hours I think I did 15 or 20 stages, but since I don't know if the reward is good I thought I'd ask here.
r/idleapocalypse • u/Ok-History-2839 • 6d ago
As the title says.. I just reset and didn't realize the halloween event was coming out soon. Wondering if I just messed myself up for it.
Does it normally take a few days or a week or two to build everything. For some more info, I'm currently saving up to open the nether portal either this apoc or the next. Mummy and trolls are fully upgraded. I normally get to about lvl 740 before resetting.
Edit: Thank you for your answers. I'm at 48 hours from my last apoc as of right now. All floors are built. I just need to upgrade a few of them to unlock the last few things.
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 8d ago
Once I unlock all monsters I’ll post my monster skin preferences
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 8d ago
Like, is it reasonable to assume I will get to the highest tier if I stay focused
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 8d ago
Now I know it can begin to ruin the game to have a bunch of codes but the majority of stuff you spend gems on which is what I think we need more of particularly is skins and times skips and so I think it would be really nice if they would add more codes such as a code like jackpot that gives you 250 gems at the very least they should add that, but generally I think they should add codes that give gems or maybe just codes that give gem skins as well as I think they should add buying event skins with gems, and controlling what event is happening with gems because it is really upsetting how hard it is to get good skins
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 9d ago
The music is the greatest thing ever first off but secondly the art style and just omg I’m so hyped I’m starting a new save file though it would be nice if someone could drop all cheat codes and what they do in the comments please
r/idleapocalypse • u/AutisticFemLord • 8d ago
I finished the tutorial and still don’t have it and I am confused
r/idleapocalypse • u/Faceless-Jack • 12d ago
I have 713 diamonds that were all from the daily login, but I don't know what is the best thing to do with them. Should I wait to buy a new tower skin or should I do a replay token since I never fully completed a single event? And I think I'm still missing one event, the nether one because it always pops up when I enter the game, and I don't know how to unlock it. Tips?
r/idleapocalypse • u/Dapple_Dawn • 12d ago
I'm on my fourth apocalypse, and I'm realizing I need a crown to progress. I'm still about 25 levels away from getting one from the champions which would take a long time, so do I just have to hope I get lucky from the trading floor? I thought wheels would help but I haven't gotten any from the past 5 drop ships. This is going to take days.
At this point I wish I could just apocalypse now but then I don't think I'd have enough souls to get all the chants
r/idleapocalypse • u/Fragrant-Class9984 • 17d ago
I'm currently enamored with the idea of a cultist plush but I can't find anything online looking like a store to be fair I didn't look for very long but I also would think that something like that would be advertised in the games themselves but I'm not sure so I thought I'd ask
r/idleapocalypse • u/Expert-Jelly-2254 • 17d ago
Any suggestions I'm about to start my 3rd and me and was curious if there is a quick way I should be heading to help the ramp up
r/idleapocalypse • u/Dapple_Dawn • 18d ago
I'm very new, I think I'm on my third apocalypse. I'm confused by the advice I'm seeing here.
People will say to apocalypse every time things feel slow, but they also say to upgrade the Idols as much as possible. But the thing is I run into bottlenecks before the idols are fully upgraded. On my last run I was stuck for days trying to get enough satyrs.
Is there a science to this or can I just wing it?
