Are you a complete fucking idiot? Boy do I have a game for you!
As I understand, there are far more fair and involved (lol) clickers than AdVenture Capitalist, but as one of the first I was aware of and the only one I've ever played, this is my most favorite The Numbers Go Upian game of them all! One of the smartest things about it, at least on PS4/5, is that the game is able to keep track of itself while not actively launched, meaning even if I forget about this game for a year when I log back in it'll be as though I never said goodbye. Parents could learn a thing or two from this one!
On a more serious note, I've had this game running for around 63 hours - yes, 63 hours of screen time dedicated to THIS mess - and I've still not achieved the final two trophies. And there's no final trophy for the third page, Mars, at all! Those 63 hours began all the way back in 2016, years after Jeff Gerstmann had first namedropped this trash as a phone game on the Giant Bombast (helpful note: this game is actually evil, poorly made and aggressively shit on the iPhone - stay far away!) In many ways this is a scum game for losers and ought to be thoroughly detested by all.
...That said, the writing is exceptionally fun and there is a shockingly large amount of it considering you pop (in-game) achievements and whatnot every three seconds or so, while the way the bars progress from continually scaling to throbbing shafts of green really does give me the warm tinglies.
I'd recommend never playing this game, except not playing it is just as productive as playing it at a certain point, so...don't play it?
