How Cookie Clicker plays
Cookie Clicker starts with one click per cookie and becomes a production puzzle: buildings, upgrades, golden cookies and achievements multiply your output. There is no way to lose, only to optimise.
Who might enjoy it
For players who like numbers going up and small optimisation decisions. It is the reference idle game and very easy to leave running in a tab.
Controls and device requirements
Click the big cookie to bake, then buy upgrades and buildings from the right-hand store. The game keeps running between visits and saves locally.
Hands-on status: Loaded the game, dismissed the cookie notice, clicked the big cookie and checked that the store and the statistics tabs work.
