Free browser incremental games

44 free incremental games from Core Systems Asset Factory that play in the browser on itch.io, every one tagged incremental on its store page. Their store pages file them under Simulation (40), Strategy (17), Action (1) and Puzzle (1). Average session, as each page states it: a few minutes, about a half-hour, about an hour and a few hours. Every game is made with AI and its page says so.

How these are made. Every CSAF product is made with AI. Each entry below repeats the AI disclosure exactly as its store page states it (for example "AI Assisted, Code, Graphics").
