Evaluation
Finn Dorset's Institute For Livestock Replication launched on October 2, 2024 as a free-to-play incremental game. The store description explicitly states it is "totally free" with "no paid bonuses, loot boxes or coins" and that players "will never be asked for money." This positions the game as a finished, self-contained product with no monetization hooks that would drive ongoing content delivery.
Post-launch developer activity has consisted entirely of maintenance work: a cluster of three bug fixes in the first week of release (October 5–7, 2024), followed by a save corruption fix on June 9, 2025, and a performance/bug fix update (version 1.3) on June 13, 2025. There have been no major content drops, no announcements of future expansions or updates, and no roadmaps. The developer has not communicated any plans for additional content.
The game launched as a complete product — a genre (idle/clicker) that typically ships as a finished experience — and all post-launch communication has been maintenance-only. The game can be considered complete as of its launch date.
Evidence
Store page explicitly states the game is completely free with no paid bonuses, loot boxes, or coins, and that players will never be asked for money. Positions the game as a finished, self-contained product.
Version 1.3 adds a performance Lite Mode option and fixes a sheep counter bug — purely maintenance in nature, no new content added.

About this game
Welcome to Finn Dorset's Institute For Livestock Replication
You play as Finn Dorset, a humble clone farmer starting out on a grassy dwarf planet.
Begin with a single moon sheep, a small paddock and a cloning machine. Expand your enterprise clone-by-clone until you have the greatest wool production business in the sector!
Purchase upgrades and automate your clone production with your hard earned Moon Money!
Deploy futuristic gadgets to produce large amounts of livestock and develop various transport methods to sell your wool!
Defend your farm from hungry hawks and other hazardous hostiles!
Features
- Animated cartoon graphics
- Totally free game (no paid bonuses, loot boxes or coins. You will never be asked for money)
- Hundreds of upgrades and progression levels
- Fully illustrated hand drawn artwork
- Space goose!
- Dynamic evolving visuals
- Hours of game-play
- In-game and Steam achievements
What even is this?
Another crackpot hand-drawn cartoon game from the developer of Snowflake's Chance and Metal Voyager. FDIFLR is an incremental game in the spirit of titles such as Universal Paperclips and Cookie Clicker.
The genre is often characterized by minimalist visuals so the idea was to have the units and upgrades illustrated as much as possible.
It is an idle/clicker game so there are short to medium periods of waiting to progress.
Is there sound?
Due to the game being designed to be played while multitasking or in the background there is no game audio, players are encouraged to listen to a podcast or watch approved educational programming on a second monitor.
Who has made this?
Game and artwork was made by Carl Morgan (CarlMorganArt). Special thanks to Dante Morris for naming the title.
So this is free?
Yep.
Who is Finn Dorset?
Stop digging.
