I think every game can be viewed from a incremental lens, but you would have to somehow focus that aspect for it to be relevant in conversation about incrementals.. and even then people may not play it if the other part isn't interesting, ie there is a wide range of interests that can decide to like incrementals while avoiding other aspects of games but still connect with others over the incremental aspect. in essence someone who loves incremental games may not include just one but many interrelated layers of powerups and abilities... it is indeed a pretty popular genera though, i think there is a thread of questionably excluding 'partially' incremental games, which is probably just the result of increased effort needed to involve a game in the historic word 'incremental' that wasn't already made with it in mind. though yes that history is pale in the shadow of just like people in desperate wanting to be recommended games with numbers going up etc, so you can see how a genera was indefatigably defined by upset if a game is not 'easy', etc. and it's not necessarily relevant now... yea hope that helps
