Clicker Heroes
Playsaurus. Clicker RPG. iOS, Android, PC.
The clicker that defined the genre. Click monsters, hire heroes, beat bosses and reset to go further.
Our take
Clicker Heroes is where a lot of players first met the loop: click the monster, hire a hero, beat the boss, reset, repeat. It is older and simpler than its successors, and that simplicity is the appeal. It runs on phones and on PC.
It suits players who want the classic loop with nothing added.
