The Count of Monte Clicker

PROs: Good story, great dialogues, even skill tree descriptions. CONs: The gameplay itself is aggravating! There are two types of gameplay here: 1. The 'arena' parts - you just 'shoot' at sprites that try to get at you. That's it, no tactics, NO strategy, no difference in enemy types - you just grind it until your stats are high enough to move to next stage. Repeat the chore 15-20 types. The worse type of gameplay, a needless filler. 2. The 'incremental' parts. Here you just have two resource pools, that act as currencies, and one of them also contributes to the 'progress bar'. So you just swap between them. BUT, it's not really working in idle - for good effects, you need swap often, and later even move mouse between two buttons on opposite parts of screen(!), to keep a good multiplier (more resource and faster completion). And the worst thing, the game ENDS just when the things should have gone interesting. I have suffered almost 7 hours of this CHORE, to be hit with an end screen mid-book? Not cool.

As long as you go in expecting a narrativized clicker-type game and understanding that for some unfathomable reason the developers decided to end the game right before the Edmund actually BECOMES the Count of "Monte Clicker" (around chapter 24 out of about 117 chapters), this is a fun enough little game given the price with some humorous twists on Dumas's novel.
