Frequently Asked Questions (Steam Edition)

What rights does Jagex have as publisher of Melvor Idle?
Please see my detailed response here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MelvorIdle/comments/qde13n/melvor_idle_x_jagex_faq_important_questions_and/

Will I be able to transfer my save from iOS/Android/Web to the Steam Version?

Yes!
You can simply use the same Melvor Cloud Account as you do on other devices to transfer the save. You can also use the manual import/export feature in Settings if you prefer that.

Will I get the Steam Achievements for an account already progressed?

Yes!
When you log into a character, Steam Achievements will activate for you.

What's the difference between the Steam Version and Web Version?

Honestly not much.
However, Steam comes with Achievements, no advertisements and no throttling that the browser enforces.

It is also used as a means to support the Developer and the project directly.

Am I able to use scripts/extensions with the Steam Version?

There is currently no official support for modding, scripting or extensions. Any modifications you do to the game risk losing account data. Please do this at your own discretion.

What's coming in the next update?

LuckyStrike has Melvor Idle

I know, i might sound greedy, especially when i haven't really played the game yet, but when i see on first start that there is also a mobile version, the first thing that comes to my mind is:
Is there any possibility that we get the android ad-free version as well when purchasing the pc version?
e.g. by using the melvor cloud feature to create an account for pc, and when logging in with that account to the free android version it auto-removes adds and "upgrades" the game to the paid android version?

If this was actually possible to do, I would have done it by now.

Unfortunately, no matter what, you are required to purchase it on different platforms due to Steam / Apple / Google Play not talking to each other.

The purchases on all platforms are gated by their respective app stores. There is no way for me to tell Google that you bought it on Steam and allow you to then bypass their payment system to download the ad free version.

Unfortunately linking it to the Melvor Cloud does nothing, as you still need to get through Google's payment system to even access it (as the ads are integrated with the app itself)

Hi,

when I buy the Steam version, can I switch between the Steam version and the browser version? Kinda crossplay? Or is the either the one or the other exclusively?

Yep, you can switch. The save is compatible on all versions :)
