Originally launched as a browser game in 2013 by solo developer Julien Thiennot, Cookie Clicker became a cult hit for its simple yet addictive gameplay: click to make cookies. Over time, players unlock upgrades, buildings, and automations to multiply cookie production into the billions and beyond.
The console version retains the core mechanics, swapping mouse clicks for button presses (X or A, depending on platform). It features:
- 600+ upgrades
- Permanent unlocks
- Mini-games
- A pettable dragon
- Music by C418 (composer of the original Minecraft soundtrack)
Priced at $4.99, Cookie Clicker brings one of the most iconic idle games to a new audience, a decade after it helped define the genre.
