In the incremental game type, Realm Grinder is the first to introduce a significant level of re-playability by giving the player choices that can entirely change the play-style. You will be given goals and to reach these goals, the choice to join different [[factions]] of mythic creatures
. Ranging from [[Fairy|Fairies]]
,
[[goblins]]
to [[Titans]]. Each faction
have their [[Faction Coins|own resource]], and each
focuses
on different mechanics
,
ranging
from
improving
low
tier
buildings to
massive
spell-casting capabilities. As you play and learn, it will be yours to find out how to best reach these
different
goals.

Through probably not planned, it is also the first to convey more in-depth collaboration: The mechanics are numerous, their perks interconnected, and on top of that, the perk formulas are not entirely given. This has brought players to collaborate in order to gather the base data necessary, calculate, figure out the formulas, discuss strategies and ideas.
