What an addictive incremental game where you play as a spaceship and destroy asteroids. Increasing your damage and attack speed with each run. There is also a fun Plinko machine you'll upgrade to get more rewards from the asteroids you have destroyed. No missable achievements and completion takes around 2,5h.

I had a lot of fun with Space Rock Breaker. I even kept playing for a bit longer, as I was pretty sad I finished it already. The later stages, when you're overpowered, feel so good!
You play as a spaceship that destroys asteroids. At first, your damage sucks and your fuel level even more, but the beauty of incremental games is that you'll upgrade those and will power through the first levels very soon. When you destroy an asteroid, you'll collect materials from it and let them go through a Plinko machine at your base. At first, this is a very boring Plinko machine, but soon, with lootboxes, you'll make it better and better, so that even the crappy scraps are worth a lot.
Every five levels, you'll fight a boss, which will give you material you can use on upgrades in the prestige menu. This will mean you start over, but you'll be so much stronger that within minutes you'll be back at your old level. And it even remembers the levels you have unlocked after using prestige in sets of 5 (so after each boss fight). In later prestige, it is also possible to keep artifacts and, lately, also your skill tree. Look what will come with the next prestige, so you can plan for it. It will go into effect directly.
I love incremental games that don't overstay their welcome, and this is one of those. Such a fun game to play between big games or during stressful periods of life. I would still have loved it even if the playtime had been double, but this is perfect as well.
I give Space Rock Breaker 4,5 out of 5 stars.
