Clicker Heroes is an idle game that was developed by American independent studio Playsaurus.
[1] Clicker Heroes is free-to-play, but players can use microtransactions to buy an in-game currency called "rubies".
Clicker Heroes received positive reception from critics; Nathan Grayson of Kotaku called it "[a] perfect office space distraction".
[11] In May 2019, the iOS version was generating an income of $200-$300 per day until an international trademark dispute caused Apple to remove the game from the app store.
[15] Sammy Barker of Push Square gave the game a 5/10 score, stating, "Too many brickwalls [sic] prevent Clicker Heroes from reaching the highs of AdVenture Capitalist, but this is still a frighteningly addictive incremental title".
[16] Clicker Heroes' popularity on Steam initiated the release of other incremental games on that platform.
[18] Playsaurus created a sequel called Clicker Heroes 2, which was available on Steam Early Access as of 2018.
