Our take on Idle Tentacles
Instead of emphasizing active combat, exploration, or timed decisions, the game makes automatic progression its central structure. Its genre departure comes from treating supernatural worship, sacrifices, and god summoning as largely passive collection and waiting.
What is Idle Tentacles?
Idle Tentacles is an automatic idle game centered on worship of Cthulhu and other unnameable beings.
The game tracks collected beliefs and sacrifices, which can be offered to obtain forbidden knowledge. Summoning can produce legendary evil gods or members of their families. Gods provide effects, while their idols can be unlocked as CG content. Family-member summons provide a reinforcement effect. Gameplay requires little direct action because progression runs automatically. The game’s characters are all over 18 years old.
