0.The Tree of Nerfs(downvoid*)
*Also “unsoftcapped” or “upvoid”. The review is based on v1.0
Summary
Topic: At start you’ll get a nerf that reduces point gain over time. And layers and their ups reduce it.
Length: 1-2 hrs. Endgame: F1.798e308 points
Layers: Each layer resets all prev progress basically and has 8 ups and last up in the first 5 layers unlocks new layer. And this tree has 6 layers but has only 1 layer in the same row. Also ups in first 5 layers spell out “Remove”, “the”, “softcaps”, “and”, “unlock”, “a”, “new”, “layer”. Row 1 ups in layer 6 are same as previous, the rest in layer 6 spell out “finish”, “tree”, “of”, “nerfs”.
Balancing: Each layer is so similar that it’ll be boring. Other than this, the overall balancing is good.
Misc: As it uses old TMT, “single-tab mode” and “Shift+click to toggle tooltips” are unavailable. And last up in first 5 layers costs 69.
Conclusion: Though the topic was very unique, the game lacks the content. And game goes the same at each layer, so you’ll feel bored while playing. It has potential but that’s all.
Ranks: Content 3/5, Balancing 3/5, Uniqueness 3/5, Overall 3/5
1.The Tree Of* Nerfs 2(downvoid)Galaxy.click link/Alt link
*Also “Ton2”. The review is based on v1.5.8
Summary
Topic: The sequel of “The Tree of Nerfs”. Some layers are taken from “Distance Incremental”, “Antimatter Dimensions”, “Prestige Tree”.
Length: 7-8 hrs. Endgame: Fill 4 bars in IA layer
Layers: 18 layers. But unlike the original, not all layers resets all prior progress and can have several layers in the same row. Also this tree will be more satisfying than the original, as it has more variations.
Balancing: Average speed. But you’d wait more than 1 hr to unlock the AD layer. Also “Timewall” tab in the AT layer has upgrades that has some timewalls, which fits in its name.
Misc: The final row layers spell out“Albania”, which is also a ‘recursive acronym’, becausethe AL layer is “Albania”Also, the AL milestone that unlocks AN layer says “gwa gwa”. And ups’ names in the XYZ layer only used x, y, and z.
Conclusion: The game was greatly improved compared to the previous, as it has far more content and more components and variations. But the big timewall to unlock the AD layer makes the game boring at this moment.
Ranks: Content 4/5, Balancing 4/5, Uniqueness 4/5, Overall 4/5
2.Ordinal Gwarkup*(downvoid)Galaxy.click link
*Also “Ordinal Gwa Tree”(1st one in galaxy.click). The review is based on v0.7.1
Note: Inflation bug is fixed
Summary
Topic: A mod of “ordinal pringles”. But base shifts increase base by 1. Also base shifts are kept on all resets and added “quadrupler”(or “gwadrupler”), which quadruples autoclick speed. And you can only buy 1 factor of each type. Other than that, the game is very similar to the original.
Length: 2-3 days. Endgame:Unlock Veblen
Layers: 6 layers. G layer has base shifts(unlock stuff but increase the base), auto clicker, and factors. B layer’s req is initially “gwarkup points”, but changes to “psi ordinal” later. B layer resets G layer stuff. The 1st tab in the H layer has FGH and SGH ordinals, which are auto clicked. The 2nd tab in the H layer is “overflow”, unlocked at 41 Factor Boosts and Boosters you get after 40 Factor Boosts produce “booster power”, whose effect can be seen in this tab. The 3rd tab in the H layer is “charge”. Charge can be bought with “incrementy”, which is used for boosting Booster ups.
C layer resets all pre-collapse stuff. It has “Sluggish Milestones(SM)”, “alephs”, “CUPs”, “Light mode”, and “singularity(SL)”. SM is QoL milestones(SM0 unlocks new things.), which is the same as the ones in OM. Alephs boost various things but the choice is random(You can’t refund them). CUPs cost cardinals, some of them are very useful. And Light mode makes pre-collapse stuff much weaker, but you can buy some stuff in it. In addition, you can also buy “Anti-Charges”, which is used for “Anti-charging CUPs(Anti-charged CUPs are called ‘ACUP’. They’re boosted CUPs.)”, some of which are very powerful. Also it has a singularity that boosts cardinals but nerfs incrementy, which can be boosted by using incrementy or cardinals. And there’s “Realm” later on, which disables all prior things and the base is 2^(completions+1). But there is a new layer in it. Singularity and realm can be toggled. After 3 realm completions there’s a veblen boosting realm.
Balancing: Slow but no long timewalls. Collapse is very grindy, so I recommend: Get SM70 as soon as possible. Get SM55 when you buy CUP1, CUP5. SM41 and 25 aren’t important. Make sure to have enough alephs.
Misc: Offline prod is force disabled due to exploits. Also you can select a light theme(don’t select it) and change the max ordinal length. SM25 is buffed after v0.6. There’s a bug where your incrementy jumps when you respec charges. Also when you buy ACUP4, the incrementy will be inflated so that you can have like e300 cardinals.
Conclusion: The game was fun, but it’s slow and lacks the explanation, especially the H layer. Also the late game bugs breaks the game due to hyperinflation. And I think you can understand this game better when you play OM or Ordinal Pringles. Nonetheless, it’s well-balanced and still worth playing.

3.8×8 Tree(downvoid)Galaxy.click link
Summary
Topic: A tree with an 8×8 grid. 17 of them are made.
Length: 5 hrs. Endgame: 1 Hyper prestige point
Layers: 17 layers. Ups in layer 1 are always kept and unlock a new layer except 1st up. But other layers are reset on higher rows.
Balancing: Fast but grindy. You’ll spam resets many times. Also if you unlocked row 2, then I recommend you to get at least 5 of them for a milestone.(But it doesn’t matter that much)
Conclusion: The game balanced very well and has decent amount of content, but it’s a bit grindy.
Ranks: Content 3/5, Balancing 4/5, Uniqueness 2/5, Overall 3.2/5
4.Game Dev Tree(thepaperpilot)Galaxy.click link
Summary
Topic: Developing TMT. The “hours of work” gain is reduced over time after some point. You start with a small idea but eventually become a great game dev.
Length: 4-5 hrs
Layers: 11 layers. All layers only got reset along branches(only higher resets are counted). For example, E layer(row 2) connected to U(row 1), R, S(both row 3), A, T(both row 4), D(row 4), but U layer is lower reset so E layer only resets on R, S, A, T, D. Note that the D layer is connected to all row 1-3 layers, so it resets all of them.
Balancing: Fast at row 1-3 but slow at row 4. And both A and G layers(row 4) require strategy. For A layer, concentrate on boosting E gain and giving levels on all prior APIs. It’ll even be helpful at the endgame and allows you to push past the end. And for G layer, NEVER use it until spent G counts into its effect, as unspent G is helpful and content unlocked by it will be very costly. And the last chal will be a very long timewall(1 hr maybe) even if you pushed enough outside of it.
Misc: There’s a lore at all layers.
Conclusion: Though it’s easy to play compared to other TMTs in the early game, the bad balance at late game(especially the last chal) make the game less fun. However, if you’re a new TMT player, I recommend you to play it first.
Ranks: Content 3/5, Balancing 3/5, Uniqueness 3/5, Overall 3/5
5.Leveling Tree(Denisolension) Githack link
Summary
Topic: Leveling up and RPG stuff. Level req will be higher each level up. Level is capped at e6.
Length: 10-15 hrs. Endgame:12 Damage
Layers: 8 layers. You won’t get initial lv cap until layer 5. But you’ll get a lv cap shortly after that. And it won’t increase until a skill(layer 6) milestone that adds lv cap based on skills up to 1e4. And you’ll unlock 9th chal in layer 5 shortly, and the 9th chal will increase lv cap more(until 1e7 if you don’t get treasures) but you’ll notice that maxing out it is very hard; 99/100 completions is possible though.
Balancing: Usually slow. Layer 1-4 isn’t that hard. But if you unlocked layer 5, you may notice the chals in that layer is hard. The 8th chal is very hard(the second hardest to max it) as you need to max it(100 completions) to unlock the next layer. And layer 6 is very grindy as it resets all prior stuff. Layer 7 ups after the 11th up will be all timewalls, especially for 17th-21st ups(1000 sec of waiting each). And the final layer also resets all prior stuff so it’ll be very grindy again.
Misc: The game until v0.2 had a typical design for TMT, but the v0.2.0.1 update changed the design so much, and added a xp bar as well. Also all milestones that bulk buy 2nd ruby buyables are all broken (due to single line mistake in “ruby.js”, according to the user “Terper” in discord server), except the 1e6 skills milestone. Also has a few typos. For example, “To Level 70!” up’s description “Level UP much too faster before lv.60” should be changed to “Level UP too much faster before lv.70”, as it works at lv 60-70.
Conclusion: It was unique for using RPG stuff in TMT, but the grind and timewalls made the game boring.
Ranks: Content 4/5, Balancing 2/5, Uniqueness 4/5, Overall 3/5
6.Tuba’s Tree(Randomtuba)Galaxy.click link
Summary
Topic: Just a generic TMT. Length: 7-9 hrs. Endgame: e2.36e14 points
Layers: 5 layers and a side layer. Each layer except the last resets all prior progress. The last layer only resets the 1st layer. All layers has ups, buyables, and milestones. Layer 3 also has chals that are non- repeatable. Layer 4 has 5 chals that are repeatable(up to 10 times).
Balancing: Average speed but it has 1 hr wall at “No Shards II”(layer 3). Layer 4 chals are painful.
Misc: It shows 45 goals, but 5 goals are added if you got 1 super prestige point.
Conclusion: The game was fun, but “No shards II” timewall was too bad.
Ranks: Content 4/5, Balancing 4/5, Uniqueness 4/5, Overall 4/5
7.Tuba’s Tree Rewritten(Randomtuba)
Summary
Topic: Same as Tuba’s Tree. It has 42 goals. Length: 3-5 hrs
Layers: 4 layers and 2 side layers. Unlike the original, it has a booster and point layer, but doesn’t have T, R, and SP. Each layer resets all prior rows and has ups and buyables in all layers except booster.
Balancing: Slow. You should farm Exp for a boost, which is a grind.
Conclusion: The game was less fun than the original, due to being very grindy.
Ranks: Content 3/5, Balancing 3/5, Uniqueness 3/5, Overall 3/5
8.Tuba’s Tree 2*(Randomtuba)
*Game was at github, but moved to glitch since it was deleted. The review is based on v1.0.
Summary
Topic: Growing Tubas. It’s a sequel to Tuba’s Tree. But it’s more similar to Tuba’s Tree Rewritten.
Length: 14-17 hrs. Endgame: e9.588e8 Tubas
Layers: 9 layers and 5 side layers. Unlike the Tuba’s Tree, trensension chals are also repeatable(up to 3) and “shards” from Tuba’s Tree are changed to “polynomial growth” mechanic(original one has generator and doubler). Also “Energy” was so expanded that it has 5 types of nerfs and types. Strategies are required at “Reincarnation skill tree” and “Super-Prestige Ups(not as much as the previous)”. Reincarnation Chals are completable up to 50 times, but maxing out it is impossible.
Balancing: Normal speed. You’ll spam Transcend clicks at early-reincarnation. Also you should spam Ascension clicks after buying an Ascension up that boosts Ascension Point gain based on its count. And you’ll need to reset Reincarnation tree ups whenever you’re stuck. When you unlock the SP layer, you’ll choose its ups wisely(tip: never get the up that boosts quarks at first. And the strongest up at 1 upgrade point is the 2nd up.). And don’t forget about beating Reincarnation chals.
Misc: The goals are colored: Green(pre-Trenscend), Yellow(Trenscend), Red(Reincarnate).
Conclusion: The game has much improved compared to the prior trees by Randomtuba. And this tree was much more impressive than Tuba’s Tree. However, Incrementy layer was a bit boring. Nonetheless, it’s worth playing it.
Ranks: Content 5/5, Balancing 4/5, Uniqueness 5/5, Overall 4.5/5
9.The Incrementreeverse(pg132)Galaxy.click link
Summary
Topic: Growing “Incrementy”. Length: 2 days. Endgame: F1.798e308 points
Layers: 16 Layers. But some layers are removed when buying “Seen” up(at pion layer). Most layers until row 3 aren’t reset layers. But all layers after “S” layer are all reset layer. Also Fragment layer has reset cooldown(30 sec), which means that you can’t reset at cooldown. “Incrementy Stamina” buyable** is strong even in the late-game, because it raises base incrementy gain and also the effect is exponential. But, “Incrementy Stamina” buyable’s effect is softcapped at certain level(initially 40), which square roots the formula***(but note that this buyable is still strong).
Balancing: Slow and grindy. The game before Origin reset goes fine(there’s 1000 sec timewall at Super-prestige). However, the Origin reset resets ALL stuff(Almost a hard reset) before this and hardly boosts things(So it forces you to start from “Origin” again, so does the name.). And it takes a very long time to recover. The game goes fine again when you got all Origin QoLs, before Capsules. Capsule reset resets ALL stuff before this(again?) and it take a long time to recover. Nonetheless, Capsule reset isn’t as bad as Origin, since it takes less time than Origin.
Misc: When you beat this, you can’t select keep going but you can hard reset. Also holding on buyables doesn’t work, as it uses old TMT.
*It’s the number limit of it. ** Capped at 400 levels, can be changed with ups.
**x in the formula becomes sqrt(xa), where ‘a’ is the softcap start. ‘a’ can go up with some things.
Conclusion: The game has various content, but the balancing was very bad at origin.
Ranks: Content 5/5, Balancing 3/5, Uniqueness 2/5, Overall 3.6/5
10.The Prestige Chain(pg132)
Summary
Topic: A linear tree with alphabetical order(A~M). Length: 1 day. Endgame: 378 Goals
Layers: 13 layers and 2 side layers. All layers reset all prior layers. And the 2nd side layer resets all prior layers, as well as goals. However, the next layer(G) resets the 2nd side layer as well(G doesn’t reset goals.). All layers have ups and buyables(except side layers), and some layers have milestones and chals.(including the 2nd side layer)
Balancing: Normal speed. But you’ll suffer at medals, as it’s repetitive and boring. Also the M layer is the only layer that needs strategy, which is also the final layer.
Misc: All components in the layer have a name, whose 1st letter is the same as the layer’s 1st letter. For example, the 10th up in the “Eggs” layer: the name of it is “Equipment”.(which costs 1e7 Eggs.) And holding buyables doesn’t work, as it uses old TMT. You’ll see the inflation at the J-L layers.
Conclusion: The game was balanced very well except for Medals.
Ranks: Content 5/5, Balancing 4/5, Uniqueness 3/5, Overall 3.9/5
11.Milestone Tree(Loader3229*)Galaxy.click link Chinese ver.
*The review is based on v1.160
Summary
Topic: Milestones. This tree has 160 milestones. This tree actually has all components from TMT, but still the main is milestones.
Length: 10-15 hrs. Endgame:160 milestones
Layers: 13 layers. All types of milestones are always kept. All other layers are reset on lower rows(except PE, SE, and HE, which are always kept and reset nothing.).
Balancing: Fast at pre-Trenscend and normal after this. You’ll spam click many times for Prestige Boost, at the early game. Also if you’re stuck, there should be something you’re missing. And after getting 120th milestone, you should get AP chal completions as much as you can, as even 0.01 completions are important(or wait for T ups.).However, AP challenges starts to be automated(even if you’re out of them) at 145 milestones, eventually all of them are automated shortly after. But you should enter them again for some ups’ requirements.
Misc: TP is capped at e20. Also 69th milestone popup: “69th milestone lol”. The 2nd Hyper-prestige buyable’s base cost is e690 000(Nice number).
Conclusion: This game is balanced almost optimally at all points, besides having enough content. While the topic isn’t that unique, you should play it if you’re looking for a good TMT.
Ranks: Content 5/5, Balancing 5/5, Uniqueness 2/5, Overall 4.1/5
12.The Multitree*(Loader3229)
*The review is based on v1.5.2.1
Summary
Topic: A Tree with Multiple trees(there are 7). You start with only 1 tree(Prestige tree Classic), but you unlock more as you progress. But switching trees is important since progressing in even the 1st tree is needed.
Length: 12-18 hrs. Endgame:e2.75e7 points
Layers: 22 in tree 1, 4 in tree 2, 9 in tree 5, 10 in tree 6, and 3 in tree 3,4, and 4 layers in tree 7. So there’s 55 layers in total. Trees 5 and 7 are incomplete, and you can unlock more stuff in the tree in Tree Manager. And selecting B, G in tree 1 & 7 doesn’t increase each other’s req. And selecting 1 of T, E, S, HB, SS layers in tree 1 doesn’t increase other layers’ costs. This applies to all trees, so don’t hesitate to unlock new layers. Tree 7 layers are only unlocked by both upgrading this tree and get ups in the “Rewrite TPT” tab in Tree Manager.
Balancing: Fast but a bit slow at 3 trees. Crystal layer in tree 2 needs strategy, as their resources are limited. But their ups get cheaper every crystal(minimum 0), and you finally get all ups.
Here’s a tip(if 3 rows unlocked): Don’t get 31/33 unless you’re stuck at tree 1. Get all ups that are free. 13/15/21/22/25/34 are “Must-Have’', so you should get them. Don’t get 11/12/14/23/24 until it’s free.
The main point of this tip is to boost the things in tree 2 and avoid the others. And note that getting more crystals is still important even if all crystal ups are bought, as some of them boost things based on crystals. This applies to “Chemical Synthesizers” in tree 3.
Misc: As it uses old TMT, holding buyables doesn’t work. The up costs 69 coal says ‘nice’.
Conclusion: The concept of this was very unique(it’s the 1st tree that has multiple trees), as well as having a good amount of content and having great balancing. It’s the best TMT I’ve ever seen. I recommend this tree for those who are looking for good trees or those who hate timewalls. I hope this tree gets updates.
Ranks: Content 5/5, Balancing 5/5, Uniqueness 4/5, Overall 4.7/5
13.The Gaokao Tree(Loader3229)
Summary
Topic: Passing the Gaokao Exam(Chinese University entrance exam), and getting degrees.
Length: 12-14 hrs. Endgame:750 points
Layers: 8 Layers and a side layer. There are 4 ups and textbooks for every subject(row 1 layers). Textbooks are buyables that boost credits and corresponding layer currencies by 1.5(changeable) each level. All of those are reset on GK reset, which is an exam layer that has milestones. But all row 2 layers are permanent so they’re not reset.
Balancing: Normal speed but very grindy in late game. You’ll click for textbooks a lot. Do GK reset when you’re waiting 2+ mins every buyable before the supermarket. When you unlock the supermarket, the goods in it will be timewall, so wait for those before GK reset. And unspent money does nothing, which means it’s always worth spending them. The Degree layer will be a bit strategic, as you can’t afford all of them. But there’s 9 of them at most and you can’t buy 1-2 of them, so there shouldn’t be many combos.
Misc: There are no autobuyers in this game and holding buyables doesn’t work, due to using old TMT. And the math score is usually lower than others.
Conclusion: The tree has a good amount of content and no timewalls. But the large amount of grind makes this tree boring. Nonetheless, it’s worth trying it, as it shows the tree without autobuyers be like.
Ranks: Content 3/5, Balancing 3/5, Uniqueness 3/5, Overall 3/5
14.Prestige Tree Dimensions*(Loader3229)
*Also “Prestige Tree: Dimensional Respecced”, “PTD”
Summary
Topic: “Prestige Tree Rewritten” but with dimensions in almost every layer. Some layers in “Prestige Tree Classic” included(L, SP) and some layers in Prestige Tree Rewritten don’t exist(HN, GE, MC, EN, NE, R, ID, AI, C).
Length: 3-5 days. Endgame:10 Infinities
Layers: 21 Layers and a side layer(infinity). The Infinity side layer resets all prior progress and the cost increases every reset. In addition, you get a nerf based on infinities. But you unlock something every infinity, and get a QoL milestone, and at 2 infinities gain Infinity Power based on infinities, which partially offsets infinity nerf. And every layer except infinity resets lower layers. Most of the layers have dimensions, which works like “Antimatter Dimensions”. H layer have chals, most of them are repeatable and some of them have no completion cap. And “Impossible?” chal is unique in that you can’t start this challenge.
Balancing: Slow at early game and fast at late game. This tree has timewalls at row 5 layer and 0 infinities, which means that you should wait for “Quirk Upgrade 21” effect to grow. But in the late game it goes much faster than before. Note that all chals in the game need enough progression inside and outside of them. The game inflates at almost every infinity. And this game doesn’t have a “respec space buildings” button due to having enough space for it. Although this tree has “respec hyper buildings” button, you’ll max out all of them shortly after.(but sometimes that button matters) Mastery layer changed to upgrade layer. So this tree totally lacks strategy.
Misc: Offline prod is useful in early game. Holding buyables doesn’t work.
Conclusion: This tree lacks strategy and has quite a few timewalls in the early game. But it was fun at late game for me, and it was also the longest tree by loader3229, and I thought the balance doesn’t fit in his usual balancing, I realized that it’s wrong after beating it. Therefore, it’s worth playing it.
Ranks: Content 5/5, Balancing 4/5, Uniqueness 2/5, Overall 3.6/5
