Planet Clicker

That tiny moment when a comet hits your little blue world and the numbers jump up, you grin and click again, for like five minutes more than you meant to.

Planet Clicker is a chill clicker with a faint sci fi sticker on it, you tap planets, harvest energy, buy orbital upgrades and unlock automation drones that do the boring clicking for you. It feels oddly tactile, like stacking Lego but with numbers, and there is a steady hum of progression that keeps you poking. The loops are simple, but the upgrade tree has a few clever branches so choices matter more than they look.

You basically: click planets to collect energy, spend that on buildings and upgrades, research tech for multipliers, and eventually reset for a prestige bonus that makes future runs a bit faster. I like that the prestige rewards actually change how you play instead of just inflating numbers.

Small piece of practical advice, if you want faster midgame, focus on automation and the orbital multiplier long before the fancy megastructures, they speed up the grind more than one big purchase does. Also, if a run stalls, reset earlier, the next run will feel snappier.
