Gaia

+Is NGU. +I'm not good enough at math to know how Exponential it is for your base to go up, but I do feel safe enough to say the NGU is exponential. +Resources are gained while afk. +Simple interaction available for resource gain faster. +Minor Unfolding shown in Demo. +Upgrades improve progress. +No game over from "playing wrong." It can slow your progress (sacrifice automation for manual speed). +Doesn't have active game sections. +Has a reset mechanic that provides permanent upgrades. +Has down time. 10 of 10 bullet points calling this incremental.

Cool and interesting premise for an incremental, changing the usual way exponential increases are represented by shifting the base of the numbering system instead. I've seen nothing else like it, and it's worth the price just for the novelty. As a maths geek it genuinely made me visualise logarithms in an entirely different way, something I never would have a expected to learn from a game. (Scientific notation in base 5000+ could have been interesting to think about!) Don't be fooled by my played time, there's about six hours of gameplay in this. I accidentally left it running overnight. (With automatic purchases disabled too! Doh!)

Exactly what it says it is, a fun idle/clicker game, play either way, enjoy the dopamine hits of numbers getting really big then pushing the extinction button and watching some event kill everyone off, then do it all over again, big numbers keep getting bigger and bigger or you can sacrifice some population to make them get bigger even faster
