When that happens, the first game of your game library that has card drops is loaded. If everything goes well, you should see a green status next to Steam is running and Idle Master is connected to Steam. Idle Master recognizes that Steam is running and requires that you sign in to your Steam account afterwards to link the program to the account. The free program runs in the background and ensures that you get card drops for all games supporting the system even if they are not installed on Steam or not played.Īll you need to do is install Idle Master on your system and run the Steam client afterwards. That's where Idle Master comes into play. Since many games support trading cards on Steam, you'd have to install and play them all to get all the cards.
The system rewards players with cards for specific games supporting the system which they can combine to badges to level up their Steam account, trade or sell on the marketplace.Ĭards can be completely ignored but there is a thriving economy that is built around cards and other digital items. Valve introduced trading cards a while ago on Steam.
