Its inhabitants withdrew behind locked doors of the Dream Castle, leaving you to uncover their stories, customize your own Valley and bring the magic back alongside more than 50 heroes and villains.

Melvor Idle draws on RuneScape and distils what makes adventure games so compelling into its simplest form. In this idle/incremental game the player levels more than twenty skills by clicking or tapping, and because those skills interact, effort invested in one benefits the others. Beyond Woodcutting, Smithing, Cooking and Farming, the player takes Melee, Ranged and Magic into battle against more than a hundred monsters, clears dungeons and defeats bosses. Progression also continues while away, with cloud saving and an integrated bank and inventory system included.

Meanwhile Beatrix tries to unravel the island’s secrets and find out what it is really for.
