With the sword, a previously-hidden set of menus appear, letting you go on a quest through a forest (animated via more ASCII art), view your inventory, and more.

Just when you think you have them figured out.Įarly on in Candy Box can buy a wooden sword with some of your candy. But Idle Games also appeal due to a not-so-hidden undercurrent of weirdness that pervades them. This alone is enough to generate addictive feelings of mathematical progress. Billions? Trillions?
