Prestige when your progress significantly slows down, typically around levels 50-100 on your first run. Check if the prestige points you'll gain provide a bigger multiplier than your current upgrade path. Generally, if you can gain 2x or more prestige points than your last prestige, it's time to reset. The prestige multiplier applies to all future runs, making each subsequent playthrough exponentially faster.

Start with Basic Balls for their cost efficiency, then transition to Plasma Balls once affordable for their area damage. Sniper Balls become crucial for high-HP individual bricks in later levels. Scatter Balls excel against dense formations but require significant investment. The optimal strategy involves balancing all types rather than maxing one - diversification provides better overall DPS than specialization.

Boss levels appear every 10 stages with special brick patterns and high HP requirements. These levels don't progress automatically - you need sufficient DPS to break through. Save up money before reaching boss levels, focus on power upgrades over speed temporarily, and use manual clicking for the DPS boost. If stuck, consider prestiging to gain the multipliers needed to overcome the boss.

No, Idle Breakout only progresses when the game tab is active in your browser. However, it continues running when you switch to other tabs or minimize the window, as long as the browser stays open. The game calculates offline time when you return, giving you partial progress based on your last active DPS rate, but active play always yields better results than offline calculation.
