Revolution Idle Beginners Guide

At first, Revolution Idle feels simple. Circles spin, numbers go up, and everything makes sense. Then it starts throwing multipliers, exponents, and resets at you. This guide explains every main mechanic and gives some early game tips so you don’t get lost in the math jungle.
How Revolutions Work
The Revolution Tab has 10 colored Circles — Red to White.
Each circle spins laps. Every lap gives you a multiplier and earns income.
Your income = all multipliers combined.
Formula: Red Mult x Orange Mult x Yellow Mult x … (you get the idea).
Each Circle has 3 stats:
Revolution Speed: How fast it spins.
Mult Gain: How much multiplier it adds per lap.
Asc. Power: Boosts how much Mult Gain increases after Ascension.
Faster laps = more money.
Upgrading Circles
Use Revolution Score (earned every lap) to upgrade Circles.
Upgrades increase speed. Faster Circles = more laps = more income.
At level 100, a Circle stops gaining speed. That’s when you Ascend.
Ascension resets the Circle to level 5, multiplies its Mult Gain, and raises its max level by 10.
Tip: Don’t Ascend immediately. Wait until the next Circle (or two) is ready to Ascend as well. That way, you can rebuild speed faster.
Prestige
At 1 million Revolution Score, you unlock Prestige.
Prestige resets everything back to one lonely Red Circle but adds:
P.Mult (Prestige Multiplier) — multiplies your total multiplier.
P.Exponent — adds an exponential boost to income.
When to Prestige:
Start with at least x6 P.Mult.
Then aim for bigger jumps: x10, x1000, x100,000, etc.
Your income will eventually recover so fast you won’t even notice the resets.
Promote
Once your P.Mult hits 1000x, you can Promote. This resets everything again but gives you a Promotion Bonus.
Pick from 4 Promotions:
Mult Gain Mult — more multiplier per lap.
Laps Speed Mult — faster laps.
Ascension Power — more Mult Gain when Ascending.
Promotion Power — boosts all of the above.
Early game tip: Level them in order — 1, 2, 3, 4 — and repeat. Get each to level 10-15 first. After that, they slow down.
Souls
Souls are unlocked through codes and achievements.
Spend Souls on permanent upgrades that boost your income and speed.
If you don’t know what to buy first, grab anything that increases lap speed and multiplier gains.
Infinity
At 1.79e308 Revolution Score, you unlock Infinity.
This is the third prestige layer. It resets everything again and rewards you with Infinity Points (IP).
Spend IP on Infinity Upgrades that boost income, unlock Automation, and speed things up.
Challenges
Challenges unlock through Infinity Upgrades.
They make your runs harder but give IP multipliers as rewards.
There are 9 total. Most are quick. Challenges 4 and 9 are slow — bring snacks.
Infinity Break
After clearing all 9 Challenges, you can Break Infinity.
This removes the score cap and lets you push your IP higher.
At this point, you’ll start running short cycles (under a minute) or long cycles (5-30 minutes) depending on your setup.
Generators
Generators unlock with Infinity.
Each Generator boosts your Mult Gain and produces lower-tier Generators.
You’ll eventually have so many multipliers that numbers stop looking like numbers.
Stars
After maxing Infinity Upgrades, you unlock Stars.
Stars produce Stardust which boosts Generators even more.
Spend Stardust on Star Upgrades. Focus on Generator upgrades first, then Infinity Gain, then passive bonuses.
The Gameplay Loop
Your life now becomes:
Upgrade Circles → Ascend.
Prestige → Get P.Mult and P.Exponent.
Promote → Boost Mult Gain and Speed.
Complete Challenges.
Break Infinity.
Buy Generators.
Earn Stars.
Repeat.
Final Blurb
Revolution Idle may look simple at first, but it turns into a deep numbers game where resets only make you stronger. Stick to the upgrade loop and watch your income grow from tiny digits to numbers so big they stop fitting on the screen.
