Oh god, all the clicker games were like fucking methamphetamine to me. I remember there was this ‘city’ clicker one where you built roads, and I straight up played nothing else for three weeks, every moment I could when I wasn’t working. I’m glad I don’t even look in their direction now, because I know I could get sucked back in.
I love the game (and hate it), but it’s my friend who has the autistic fascination. He got me into the game, and then started quoting all the ships’ descriptions as I was looking around. I have no idea how some people can just memorize every armor layout for every ship. That’s next-level insanity.
