Make paperclips not war

get it

Universal Paperclips is an incremental 'clicker' game where you play an AI who makes paperclips.

Around the web
This clicker game lets you take over the world with paper clipsUniversal Paperclips is an incremental game that starts out in a humble factory and ends somewhere after the fall of humanity. Like most titles in the category - which folks also call "idle" or "clicker games" - it's all about the numbers as you buy wire, churn out paper clips, and amass enough wealth for what's essentially a hostile takeover of the entire planet.

    Pros: 

    Wonderfully minimalist. Strangely compelling. Completely addictive.

    Cons: 

    Before you know it, you've spent hours making paperclips.

    Universal Paperclips is an incremental 'clicker' game where you play an AI who makes paperclips.

    It's made by Frank Lantz - Designer of the awesome Drop 7 and Director of the New York University Game Center.

    Warning: you will see paperclips in your sleep.

First thought.. this looks pretty benign. Aaannnd now it's 90min later and I REALLY need to get to sleep. This is so addictive. I'm actually terrified to make suggestions that would make this better and more addictive than it already is 😜
