MapleStory: Idle RPG
Design direction
Make tickets, caps and offline rewards recoverable states and align the reading of time windows, exchanges, growth, probability and pass rules.
View all mechanismsRead the recurring-flow summary
Auto-hunt through chapter stages → collect EXP, currency, and materials → summon or enhance weapons, companions, and growth systems → raise combat power → clear harder bosses, stages, or ranking activities.
