cookie clicker is an incremental (or idle) game created by French programmer Julien Orteil Thiennot. First released in 2013, the game quickly gained popularity for its simple yet strangely addictive gameplay.
In Cookie Clicker, you start with a single giant cookie and a single action: clicking it. Every click produces cookies, which act as the in-game currency. Over time, you can spend your cookies to buy upgrades and automatic buildings, like grandmas, farms, factories, and even portals, that bake cookies for you without needing to click.
