The gameplay of "Lord of the Click" is criticized for its lack of depth and progression, relying solely on repetitive clicking without the additional mechanics typically found in clicker games, such as upgrades or features that enhance player engagement. Players report that the game offers minimal content for its price, with gameplay lasting only a couple of hours and often requiring an autoclicker to progress. Overall, the experience is deemed unsatisfactory compared to other titles in the genre.
“Clicker games use clicking as an additional mechanic in a game, normally with other features like upgrades to the clicking, auto-clicking, DPS, DPS upgrades, prestiging, and more to add depth, which allows for steady progression towards making yourself stronger and unlocking more features.”
“There is more content in the graphics than the actual gameplay.”
“Two dollars for two hours of gameplay that are impossible without the aid of an autoclicker.”
“'Lord of the Click' has no progression, has none of those mechanics, and is solely centered around clicking on a building.”
