Stimulation Clicker distills a decade of internet brainrot into exposure therapy that makes you stupid—plus, it's free!

If every single day you wake up, log on, and think "the internet sure is stupid," then have I got a game for you. Stimulation Clicker is another absolute banger from creator Neal Agarwal, whose weird little browser games are always a delight.

In Stimulation Clicker you click a button to gain stimulation, allowing you to purchase more things that will bring you stimulation, in a quest for the most powerful simulation of what it's like to give your brain wholly over to the vast array of corporate algorithms that control the internet I have ever seen.

It's not a particularly deep commentary on this kind of thing, but it is a useful one. It reminds you that a lot of what you see was designed to engross and devour your time—often against your own better judgment. I highly recommend it. (Even if you, like me, have to turn the volume way down and/or mute it as you near the end.)
