What is Idle Monkeylogy?

This free-to-play, single-player idle game draws on the infinite monkey theorem. You generate random letters to complete words, gather apples to feed monkeys, and buy upgrades that eventually automate their typing. Completed words fill a dictionary, while ascending resets progress to unlock new upgrades.
