Dwarf Eats Mountain tasks you with mining gold and artifacts while upgrading your dwarves to tackle progressively larger mountains in this incremental clicker. The prestige system offers different upgrade paths, though players note the balance heavily favors certain builds and artifacts, leaving limited meaningful optimization once you find the dominant strategy. Best suited for those seeking an addictive early-game loop rather than deep long-term progression choices.

I might or might not have played this for 3 days straight instead of taking care of my other responsibilities. 10/10 would ignore my wife again

I think this has a lot of potential but i really cant recommend it. I spent way too long on this game without having fun.

Its too expensive for what it offers. Its extremely poorly balanced. Like legit, theres only 1 way to play. It gives you the illusion of builds by giving you prestige upgrades into certain dwarfs but you cant refund it so if you tried a run with Demo but now want to try Miners? Good luck, back to the grind.

The UI is unintuitive and the tooltips require SO MUCH MORE INFORMATION. I dont know what a "Transmutation Ritual" is, and the game never explains it. This happens so many times.
You also cant see what upgrades are available for the towers before you stumble upon it. I get the mystery but it just ends up being guesswork. Since you have "Mithrill" as a limited resource you cant gaurantee to get enough of, you kinda just haphazardly upgrade what you THINK might unlock something new and fancy but then get disappointed, run out of mithril so you have to prestige and start over just to see if you can explore something new.

I fell for sunk cost fallacy where i kept believing i was close to finishing the achievements but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ even after the ascension it was still slow as hell.

It's.. alright. Fun and kind of addictive initially, but there are basically no choices to make. I mean yeah, you can't really lose in incrementals, but here it feels like you can't really optimize much either. And once you get a certain artifact even the tiniest illusion of choice disappears, and you just keep clicking whatever buffs flamers as they're like 100x better than anything else. GNORP Apologue at least attempted to have different builds.

Just not worth the price, wouldn't have felt as bad picking this up on sale but for the release price there are better incrementals.

With some updates this could get better though.
