I consider Clicker Heroes a game that is VERY good at what it does, but what it does is of dubious value. I have it running all the time, like you said, and I check in on it a few times throughout the day, every day. It's great for a distraction when I'm adding a bunch of listings to the database, or when I want a little emotional boost as I get to spend a bunch of Primal Souls (or Ancient Souls, which were introduced after you uninstalled it, I believe). I haven't spent a cent on Clicker Heroes, by the way.

Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world

I can't help you until you admit that it's a problem. :)

I have a soft spot for idle games. Great things to have running while I watch movies, youtube, or wait for installs. Some are better than others and I don't do much clicker heroes anymore because it's become the baseline. They're all basically the same now so the more interesting ones keep my attention.

There is no worthwhile trade off for the aggravation of one's carpal tunnel. I enjoyed your jaunty review, sir.
Someone told me that you're worth it.

I believe them.

Thanks Zydrate & hastypixels.

Mmm, one thing I forgot to mention in my review, which I might have to add, is how they keep updating the game and basically shifting back the goalposts, so if you're a competitionist, you won't be able to find a place you can justify stopping at.

Jason, that update you mentioned actually happened just before I quit. I think that may have been what prompted me.
