About Gothic Clicker

✦ AI summary

Gothic Clicker is an ARPG clicker where you help a necromancer banish the red fog by gathering bones of chaos while customizing your character across 10 distinct combat and crafting branches. It stands out with its deep progression systems including soul rebirth mechanics, combinable rings of power, mid-combat weapon upgrades, and haunting shamanic soundtrack that brings its bleak gothic world to life.

Gothic Clicker is an ARPG clicker with great possibilities to customise your character and his combat style.You were snatched from the clutches of death by the necromancer Zotania in order to help her gather the bones of chaos and rid the world of the red fog.

Character

An unconventional approach to character development offers 5 combat and 5 crafting branches, in each of which a flexible perk system awaits you.Whether it's cold weapons or wizardry, hunting or herbalism, or maybe all of them at once - it's up to you!

Inventory and Crafting

Upgrade weapons with minerals, brew potions, wear rings, armour and amulets. You can wear 10 rings at a time, and you can combine them to become Rings of Power.

Rebirth and Astral

Your soul is in the astral plane. You are neither alive nor dead. By reincarnating, you strengthen your soul and become stronger. Alchemists' sigils and gifts from the awakened will help turn the tide of battle, and venturing into the ocean will attract the gaze of the gods, opening access to powerful soul threads.

Weapons

Thanks to the power of the Philosopher's Stone and gold, weapons, magic runes, etc. can be upgraded directly during combat.Each weapon has its own set of techniques, which can also be pumped and combined at will.

Soundtrack

Melancholy shamanic music composed by Stanislav Belyaev emphasises the decadence and depth of Gothic Clicker's bleak world.

✦ AI summary

Gothic Clicker is an incremental game that attempts to add depth to the clicker formula with RPG mechanics, crafting, and progression systems, but players are divided on its execution. Supporters praise it as a genuinely engaging idler with content beyond typical clickers, while critics point to a lack of community guides, pay-to-win elements, extreme difficulty spikes, punishing game design, and a small player base as significant deterrents.

There is a distinct lack of information and guides about this game, across the entire Internet. I think that says more about the game than anything. It's obviously not popular enough, which leads me to believe that it will become a problem later on. I don't like to waste huge amounts of time on games and prefer to follow pre-existing guides, if they are available. They are not. Having recently spent over 60 hours on a pointless game, I don't want to end up in the same situation here, so it's a no from me. Given the complete lack of interest from players, I can't say this is worthwhile. Unpopular games are unpopular for a reason. The fact that later on, certain areas only allow one weapon type to be used, is ridiculous and immediately turns me away from the game. That eliminates any and all customisation of character build, if the game is forcing this upon you. The time you spent adding Stat Points, picking Skills and Perks, rendered useless due to one stupid forced mechanic. That isn't fun at all.

Gothic Clicker combines incremental progression with action RPG mechanics in a way that gives the traditional clicker formula considerably more depth than its name might initially suggest. Developed and published by Illegal Turtle 🐢, it places players in a gloomy pixel-art fantasy world where death, necromancy, supernatural forces, crafting, combat, and constant character improvement are woven together. Rather than simply asking players to click endlessly for increasingly large numbers, the game introduces equipment, skills, professions, resource gathering, magic, and rebirth systems that create a broader sense of progression. The adventure begins with the protagonist being returned from death through the intervention of a necromancer named Zotania. From there, the objective involves collecting the bones of chaos and confronting the mysterious red fog that has spread across the world. The narrative primarily serves as motivation for progression rather than functioning as an elaborate story campaign, but its macabre premise suits the mechanics surprisingly well. Reincarnation, souls, rituals, divine forces, and other supernatural concepts make the usual incremental-game cycle of g…

I don't even know where to begin, but Gothic Clicker is a game that has no purpose, but that goes without saying, considering it's a free to play idle game. So what are we dealing with here? It's got like all the worst things you could imagine, pretty much. Extremely repetitive game loop, pay to win, RNG when it comes to loot, and then it's just so damn difficult. It's a really, really difficult game. I got to like island 10, basically. One mission away from island 10, and then I'm quitting the game. I could have easily beaten that last level, but it doesn't really matter. Here's another thing, which is the reason why I never really wanted to try to beat island 9 to get to island 10. You have to watch out when you're progressing in this game because the game ends up punishing you if you go too far forward, because if you ever try to do a mission that you had previously completed, which is going to be all missions except for the current one that you're on right now, then you're getting an 80% less loot reward, less minerals, less ore, less herbs, and those are the only things that matter for like the actual progression of the game. So you're going to lose out on 80% of all that m…
