Cookie Clicker v.2 FINALLY released

The most pointless game I've ever played us about to take over my free time again. ¬_¬

If you've never heard of it, you make cookies by clicking and purchasing buildings and upgrades. It's stupidly addictive to some, a complete waste of time to others.

I think even the people who find it stupidly addictive would admit it was a complete waste of time, in spite of being unable to stop
 
These clicker games are fun for a while as a curiosity.

Just be careful about getting really into it, with ascensions and reboots and all that, because it honestly ends up being a big waste of time.

EDIT:

Yeah, some of the steam reviews for a similar game "Clicker heroes" are a bit disconcerting. So many hours played and so many people actively telling others to NOT start.

Yeah I'm one of those people...I've just completely reset the game so I can start from scratch completely. Bye bye 33 sextillion cookies.

And thanks adamantypants, the bold tags were screwing my link up.
 
Just tried it...runs worse now for me. I can't click as fast as before without it skipping, etc :/
 
Yeah cookie clicker was my first idler. Don't play it. Don't click the cookies.

You're gonna be e-mailing yourself the save code so you can run it in the background at work.





Just install timeclickers on your phone instead.
 
I guess I'll go back, but Clicker Heroes kinda made this game obsolete. What happens to existing Heavenly Cookies?
 
This is the first time playing this.

I started it.

This is dumb, why would I sit here and click.

What's this mouse hand button do?

Oh it's auto clicking, what's this grandma button do? Oh it's auto clicking, what's this 1,000g farm do, oh wow it's clicking fast, what's this do if I click this pink hand, oh it clicks twice as fast.

OH GOD NO, I HAVE 15,000 COOKIES, WHAT DO I BUY!

I am so, so sorry.
 
Can someone point me to a definition or otherwise help me understand quality of life improvement in videogame context. I've seen it a lot lately but can't grasp what it means. English is not my first language.

Probably just makes things easier and less of a hassle. General UI improvements, etc.

I CAN ALMOST AFFORD THE FACTORY!

This seriously goes to show if you attach numbers to anything and give the ability to buy something with said money I'll play anything.
 
Just started it myself.

I assume that my own clicking becomes basically irrelevant by the time I get the mine?

Basically. Once you get far enough the only time you need to click the big cookie is when you get a big multiplier bonus (like a x77 or
x666
)
