What clicker/incremental game should I play next?
I've been playing Clicker Heroes for ... well, let's not thing too hard about that, shall we? ... but I don't like the new update and it isn't fun.
I've also played a lot of universal paperclips over the last couple of months, and I'm kinda done with it now, I think.
In the past, I've liked Adventure Capitalist and Cookie Clicker. I didn't much like Crusaders of the Lost Idols -- there was just too many variables thrown into the pot too quickly and I never really managed to understand the mechanics of how any of them worked separately.

How far in the past? Cookie Clicker got some *major* updates in 2016 and 2017 that added more depth; fun to revisit if you'd previously played the older version.

Also, here's the Metafilter thread on Kittens.

I enjoyed SPACEPLAN. Looks like it's changed a lot and there are non-free versions now, but the "prototype" is still available. Not exactly a clicker/incremental, but Seedship is also a lot of text-based fun.

Response by poster: I am playing Egg, Inc right now. I tried it, despite it being not at all what I really wanted (something I could play on my laptop, something not too terribly hands on) and now, as is the way with these games, I can't stop. I will likely try a bunch of the others, too.
Thanks, all!

There's Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms if you want your clicker game to have a bit more D&D focus.
