About this game

Help Adam, Barry, and Erica Goldberg get to the top of their school’s “Cool List” and become the most popular kids in town!

The official idle tap game of The Goldbergs hit comedy TV show. The Goldbergs: Back to the 80s is an idle game where you build your popularity by managing the social life of the Goldbergs teenagers Adam, Barry and Erica in the 80s.

Tap to collect Cool Points, make Friends, and become totally popular in this narrative driven idle game! Upgrade and automate your idle hangouts to shoot straight to the top of the teenage food chain in Jenkintown!

Were you ever popular in high school? Ever make it to the top of the Cool List? Now's your chance! As the true king or queen of the social ladder, you'll collect and upgrade characters straight from the TV show and boost your cool rating to open new hangouts. Get new characters by collecting cards, then level them up by collecting nostalgic 80s themed items like vhs tapes, arcade tokens, and sunglasses!

Your cool rating is key to completing the idle game popularity challenges and climbing the Cool List! But don't get too comfortable at the top - your beloved "smother" Beverly is always trying to "help" and one wrong step will leave you embarrassed by your parents, at the bottom of the cool list! You'll go from ruling the mall to hiding out in the computer lab faster than you can say "gag me with a spoon"!

Tap your way through 80s themed arcade style boss fights against Beverly, Murray, and even Coach Mellor. As hard as you try to be cool, you'll lose it all at the end of each episode. But don’t have a cow, you’ll be rewarded with some choice 80s nostalgia to decorate your bedroom!

Sunk cost fallacy: I've invested time and money into it, and gameplay is middling but decent enough, so I don't feel like deleting. But screen is covered in bs attention-grabber. Excess niggling to buy buy and buy some more: exclusive this and exclusive that. EXTREMELY loud ads even on lowest volume. Progress is slowed down to incentivize microtransactions. Pro: once things are automated, it can be a pretty decent idle time-waste

I love the game I've played it for a couple years and then it started acting up and they didn't want to do anything to fix it so I deleted it and decided to reinstall it a couple weeks ago and it started messing up again to where I can't even finish the events or anything I mean and then they don't even they won't even help you on the weekends and I've posted something on Saturday and still haven't heard anything

New levels haven't been added in a very long time. They seem to be focused more on quick events to make money rather than providing new/more content. It's become stale and boring over the past 6 or 7 months
