Evaluation

Clicker Heroes launched on Steam on May 13, 2015 as a free-to-play idle game and has remained under active development ever since. The game's history includes major additions such as Mercenaries (November 2015), the Transcendence system (June 2016), a full Clans 2.0 overhaul (May 2020), and a complete engine port from Flash to Unity (announced in beta November 2023, released December 2023) — which the developer explicitly noted "opens up the possibility for potential future updates." Following the engine modernization, the studio has continued to ship meaningful updates: a new cosmetic DLC (Whelpling Auto Clicker) on February 8, 2024, a Nintendo Switch launch on October 2, 2025, and most recently a major update on June 22, 2026 adding full gamepad and Steam Deck support along with Playsaurus Rewards integration and cross-platform cloud saves. This June 2026 update is the most recent developer communication on record — just two months before today's date of August 19, 2026. The developer is clearly still actively investing in the game with no indication that development has wound down.

About this game

Ever wondered what one quadrillion damage per second feels like? No? Well, you’re about to find out anyway. Welcome to Clicker Heroes, the OG idle game that will turn you from a casual clicker into a number-obsessed maniac.

This isn't just your finger versus infinity. It’s a clicker extravaganza where numbers go up, monsters explode into gold, and your mouse begs for mercy. Prepare your meaty appendages, it’s clicking time!

Hire 35 unforgettable heroes to do the heavy lifting while you sit back and watch the gold pour in. From Athena to King Midas, legendary figures join your cause and bring unique powers that crank your damage through the roof. Upgrade them and unlock abilities so strong they make your MMO characters look like kindergarteners.

Click to crush endless waves of monsters and watch them explode into piles of gold. Each new zone brings tougher enemies and bosses that put your damage to the test. Smash through them, claim their treasure, and keep climbing ever higher... until even the Ancients stir in their idle slumber.

Your heroes never quit, even when you do, so gold piles up while you sleep, eat, or pretend to be productive. Then comes Ascension, the big reset that trades all your progress for shiny Hero Souls and permanent power. The first time feels like a prank, but soon you'll come back stronger, crushing bosses that once made you cry, and treating trillions of DPS like spare change.

  • Recruit and upgrade more than 35 heroes, each with their own powers.

  • Keep the adventure going even while you are away, as your heroes fight nonstop and bring back mountains of gold while you're AFK.

  • Ascend to reset your run, earn Hero Souls, and return stronger every time.

  • Push through endless zones filled with tougher monsters and bigger rewards.

  • Play for free and enjoy the full game without spending a cent.
