A pioneer in the idle gaming genre has found its way to Steam.
Cookie Clicker hit the scene in 2013 courtesy of French programmer Julien “Orteil” Thiennot. The game’s objective seems innocent enough at first glance – just click the big cookie icon to earn a single cookie. Rinse and repeat. Simple enough, no?
Well of course it’s deeper than that. Much deeper. Banked cookies can be spent to purchase upgrades and tools to improve efficiency and automate the process, all in the name of generating more cookies. Achievements are a key component of the game, as are things like prestige upgrades, seasonal events and mini games.
