The First Million combines idle progression with deckbuilding mechanics, letting you unlock cards and upgrades that compound into exponentially more powerful strategies. You'll chase each breakthrough discovery that multiplies your wealth, then reset with accumulated bonuses to climb higher. It's built for players who enjoy watching systems interact and unfold without constant active management.
About this game
An idle deckbuilder where you constantly unlock new cards and upgrades and discover one game-breaking strategy after another to make THE FIRST MILLION — and then many more!
First off: we're blown away by all of you digging this game. A thousand people buying our little indie game within a couple of hours after the release, that's the dream!Thank you all for your feedback, which we will address in time. There was one issue that needed urgent fixing though: The controller focus was lost when starting a new game after unlocking the upgrade which allows to disable cards. This is now fixed, so Steam Deck users, you're back in business!We hope you continue to have fun with this
Our tiny team of (currently) two people is very happy to announce the launch date for THE FIRST MILLION! It's going to be available on June 26, 2026 at 5pm CEST.We can't wait to see which clever card combos you come up with, how much you will earn in the daily trial, and how fast you will make it from a million to a billion! All the progress you make until then in the demo will carry over to the full game if you want to get a head start.And if you like the game, do recommend it to a friend who might like it or share it online, for a bootstrapped little indie outfit like ours this makes a huge difference!
