There’s about to be a new clicking game in town, and this one looks like an absolute nightmare (in a good way). Introducing Clickolding, a game from the developers of I Am Your Beast.
Derived from the unsettling concept of cuckolding, Clickolding is described on Steam as a “dark incremental narrative game about thumbing a tally counter to satisfy the distressing masked man sitting in the corner of your hotel room.”
The trailer for Clickolding only adds to the whole unsettling feeling surrounding this game. Indeed, there is a distressing masked man sitting in the corner of a hotel room, demanding that you click a tally counter.

There’s something violent and almost sexual about the whole scenario. What happens when you click enough? Do you get a bag of money? Does he explode? Do you explode? Could it turn into a new entry in the Saw franchise? These questions will be answered on July 16, when the game is set to release on PC.
Clickers aren’t exactly high art, but this one is developed by Strange Scaffold, the company behind El Paso, Elsewhere, I Am Your Beast, and Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator.
This gives us hope that Clickolding could transform the simple clicking formula into something unique.
Additionally, it’s being published by Outersloth, an indie game fund started by the creators of Among Us. With such a pedigree, there’s no way Clickolding ends up being a standard clicker.
It’s rare for a clicking game to become a bona-fide phenomenon, but it’s not unheard of. Just last week, a game called Banana rose to the top of the Steam charts.
That one didn’t have a creepy guy in a hotel room but did offer the potential to make actual money. Did we mention the creepy guy in the corner in Clickolding? He also has a gun.
