The basics
But, before we get into all the tips and tricks, here’s a lowdown on all the basics.
An idle RPG is what it says on the tin. It’s an RPG that lets you earn rewards and accomplish quests even when you’re not playing, making it perfect for players who need downtime or don’t want to play at all hours of the day. Usually, that means you’ll have AFK rewards that are accrued automatically, but that you will need to check in periodically as they cap out at a certain amount.
Monster Never Cry is a particularly ‘hands-off’ example of an idle RPG. While other games have you positioning your heroes and activating their abilities manually, MNC does it automatically. Your only real input is in levelling up your heroes, which monster goes where and when you use them.
Monster Never Cry also has elements of base-building. Specifically, your Monster City also has slots for buildings beneath it. Many of these are specifically for resource-gathering or other purposes, starting with the gold room, and a lot of quests require you to build certain rooms you may’ve neglected and get them to the proper level.
That’s all the basics, so let’s get into some specific suggestions.
