I wonder if there are any good idle games on console. The genre tends to be more of a PC or even mobile thing.
I guess there's The Longing but it's kind if in a category of its own, even as an idle game.

@josemanuel They're sometimes known as clicker games or incremental games.
You might have heard of Cookie Clicker? Games like that. Although Cookie Clicker is probably one of the most well-known examples of the genre, it's also one of the most "vanilla" titles out there.
A big draw for me is how good idle games tend to unfold over time, revealing more interesting gameplay and stories over time. Extra Credits made a great video about this:
