Clicker Games

What Makes a Clicker Game?

The journey in clicker games often starts with humble beginnings. You repeatedly click to produce a resource or earn currency until you have enough money to purchase the first upgrade. From there, you continue adding upgrades to your production to increase the output and revenue. One of the early clicker games that is still popular today is Doge Miner. There's also now a sequel with Doge Miner 2!

Some clicker games are more of a grind than others, and many give you an idle bonus for leaving the game and coming back.

A very grindy but satisfying clicker game is Babel Tower, a game whereby you build the famous tower of Babel brick-by-brick to reach intriguing new heights.

Another grindy clicker game back on the web after the demise of Flash is Clicker Heroes. Check it out and relive the grind!

Where Clicking Meets Idling

Once you reach a certain point in many clicker games, clicking becomes unnecessary. This is when a clicker game becomes an idle game. Eventually, you end up living the dream of having a fully automated workflow that earns you big bags of cash like in Money Factory where you build your financial empire by strategically connecting tokens on the game board.

If you want to turbo-charge that dream and make it happen in a few hours rather than a lifetime, check out idle-clicker titles like Crusher Clicker, an addictive game where you smash rocks and crystals, then upgrade to enhance your crushing power and speed. Other idle games you may want to try include Planet Life Idle, Leek Factory Tycoon, and Revolution Idle X.

If you like match-3 clicker games, Matches Game is a clicker game where you collect matches and destroy various objects.
