This is about as good as an idle game can get.
However, the medals outside of the game are broken. I've completed nearly every challenge in the game and the only medal I have is AFK. Please fix these.
Reviews for "Idle Evolution"
NewProject responds:
You have a button (newgrounds icon) in main screen, click to check again all medals.
First I would like to report a bug. I cannot reach the Question of Life achievement because if I sell all my evolution points I have got 0,52 remaining (I think this is from the bonuses perhaps). This means that I can never reach 42, I will forever be at 42,52 which is very annoying since I don't get my achievement and I can't finish this game.
Overall I think this is a cool, addicting game, I love the music and the nature of the game. This was the first time I made an account at newgrounds. The chemistry part of the game is pretty basic, I learned everything the game teaches us at elementary school, but still it was fun to use the periodic table once again. Please help me how I can fix the Question of Life bug so I can finally finish this game.

Bug fixed, thanks for report it.
Try again to get the medal.
This game is great, just like any other great Idle game, but instead puts you in the hands of God himself creating the universe one step at a time. Comes to show it is a lot harder and longer than expected to some people, and how complex it is to create something in a god's POV.
The game is very educational and very entertaining for most people because of its science-like environment and how it is played out, in fact about halfway though the game i relearned about 1/2 of the entire periodic table and remembered most of the names! which is a nice touch for people in chemistry or anything similar to that subject and it is also a fun game to play with, even though you don't really do much. (thus is why its called an Idle game)
However there are some problems which can be ignored for the most part, ether you get less Atoms for upgrades, or the upgrades are to expensive. this also applies to the knowledge system and the natural selection systems; although this can be ignored since this is an Idle game so this isn't that much of a big deal, also this can be put a side do to the fact that you can still get atoms while you are not playing as well which is a nice touch for any Idle game.
In my opinion i think that for a nice touch up for the game for the knowledge system is for every time you get a group or row completed (for example Group 1A completed now you get a 10% bonus or period 3 is completed now you get a 5% bonus for achieving that, and so on. its only a thought but you can ignore this part if you like
Overall, this game is fun;educational, and very entertaining to play, it has a wide field of study and noticeable references to science and religion which is a good touch for a great game. also players will feel a sense of competition because of the sub-text >god created the universe in 6 days. how long would it take you?< this was how i got interested in the game and tried it for myself and that was how i got hooked. so my overall recommendation, well since this is a idle game i mostly recommend this for casual players, but this isn't a game to miss out as well.
Finally reached the end today after almost a month of play! I'm surprised I kept playing for so long, it was super addictive.
I'm still missing a few of the Secret Medals, any hints on how they are unlocked?
Aim
Epic Fail (I assume you have to hit a specific number of fails in evolution?)
Secret
Play it Safe
Missing in Action
Multiethnic

I can't say anything.
But you have good guides, check reddit.
I love the music, I wish I knew what it was called.
Otherwise, great idle game. Almost feels like I'm learning something about chemistry. Maybe not.
