For those of you who aren't familiar with it, here. Congratulations on your new addiction.

I've had it running on my browser pretty much continually since the beginning of September, but even though I have all the milk and all the upgrades and all the achievements (save only for a couple of the shadow achievements), I still can't bring myself to close it. Thankfully once you get far enough the effect of actual clicking on your cookie levels is fairly minimal, or I'd likely be chained to it permanently.

It's perhaps the closest thing to MMO yet, and it's almost as addictive as SMBC Theater described.

So, what's your CpS? ;)

And so people say to me, "How do I know if a word is real?" You know, anyone who's read a children's book knows that love makes things real. If you love a word, use it! That makes it real. Being in the dictionary is an artificial distinction; it doesn't make the word any more real than any other word. If you love a word, it becomes real.

Someone posted this a while back, and I managed to get the majority of the achievements, and then I closed it, reset my cookies and my productivity skyrocketed back up. I refuse to click your link and hurt my life again.

It's like TVTropes, only actively evil instead of merely fascinating. :shifty:

Because I've already finished it. Once you find all the secrets, get all the things, and complete the entire game, there's little replay value.

Cookie Clicker, by contrast, doesn't really have an end goal, so it can't be finished.

I find Minecraft to be much more rewarding for endless games.
