Design/ technical
How does the game/genre work
Cookie Clicker is in the category of casual game genre containing two different
game mechanics:
Incremental – contains series of upgrades to unlock before proceeding to the next
one.
Idle – does not need a player’s ongoing inputs.
Importance of design and play elements
There are five common design principles for casual games as set by game
researcher, Jasper Juul:
Fiction
Is the first impression representing
the game that encourages you to
select or avoid the game. Cookie
Clicker’s giant floating cookie
subdue background promotes the
positive feel of the game.
A simple game to play with
obvious clues such as a cursor
appearing when hovering over the
giant cookie.
Each power-up and upgrade on
the right will light up when you
have enough cookies to unlock the
next upgrade.
It has the right balance of easy to
play and challenges as the game
progresses.
Usability
The flexibility of the game allows the
player to play in short bursts, for long
period, pause, save and continue at
the same level where it was left.
Making it very appealing for anyone
who has a few minutes to spare
throughout the day.
Interruptibility
Difficulty and Punishment
Costly grandmas, banks, and
power-ups make it very challenging
to move up to the next level.
Immersive experiences come from
being absorbed in trying to speed up
cookies production to acquire more
banks and so on. The punishment is,
winning is not possible for a game
with no ending such as Cookie
Clicker.
Such as:
The baked cookies clock.
Automatic cursors poking at the cookies every 10
seconds.
JUICINESS
Juiciness refers to the feedback you get and there are plenty in Cookie Clicker. The
juiciness changes according to the game level you have achieved.
The golden
cookie reward.
Reward achieved
and description.
Influential or popular
Cookie Clicker provides players with different levels of difficulties making it
popular with beginners to advanced players. The high quality graphics and visual
acquisitions create immersivity between the game and the player.
Basic Level-
no milk.
First Progress-
Plain milk
flowing in.
Second Level-
Chocolate
milk.
Level Up-
Rasberry milk.
An example of different levels through the changes in milk flavouring.
End Results
This game is mystifyingly addictive. It is one of those games that
contains non violent actions making it safe to let your kids play
without the worry of any imitation of violent actions. Finally, the
game has an awesome graphic and ingenious design that hooks you
in and making you guest what is to come next. Although the game
can play by itself, it still pulls the players in to act on certain tasks.
Not completely idle, after all.
