There are many different genres of games with different game mechanics. Among them are the simplest clickers, where the player is required to simply press a button at a certain moment. It turned out that the game, which can be called the most primitive clicker in the world, can bring in hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The developer of the Stroke series of games said that his projects earned about $350,000 in less than a year and a half. They are only sold on PlayStation. After deducting the store commission, the author received about $240,000.
Of course, these are pennies compared to the earnings of large games, but there is a nuance. First, games sell for very little money (currently around $4). That is, a lot of copies were sold. Secondly, the entire game, if it can be called a game at all, is an image of some animal (each game in the series has its own animal), music and a click counter. This is all. The game does not react to presses in any way, except for changes in the counter, and to get platinum you just need to press the button 2000 times. In fact, presumably the easy trophy is one of the reasons why people bought the game in the first place.
