Upload Simulator is a lightweight incremental game centered on file transfers and hardware upgrades. You'll automate downloads and uploads while purchasing improvements to your setup, then return periodically to unlock new features. It's best suited for players seeking a no-frills, ad-free idle experience with minimal progression layers and a short completion window.

Feels like an early access idler where they haven't figured out which direction to take it. Perhaps I'll change my review later if more is added, but it was easy to get all achievements and have no further content. There are plenty of idlers with far more content that are free.
Straight-forward idle game with only 1 real layer of progression. Takes about 2-3 days to complete. It is unfortunately missing a lot of quality of life features that would elevate it to a recommendable status. Seems like the devs have no intention of releasing any additional content for the game as there have been no patch announcements since it came out in September of 2022. No ads, no microtransactions, so that's definitely points in its favor.
UI is beautiful to look at and progression is as it should be. I mean, do a few upgrades, go afk, come back and upgrade some more unlocking features, etc. Progression is a bit slow. I'm at e14 credits 4 hours in, but it feels worth in the long run. It might have faster progression later on and I'll edit my review if so.
Not a bad concept. If you're looking for more of a mirco-managing experience in an Idler, Upload Simulator isn't the game for you; however, if you're looking for a casual Idler experience then this hits the spot.
