ClickBait is a chaotic idle/clicker game about becoming the biggest (and most questionable) internet creator.
Upload videos, bait the algorithm, chase viral fame, and watch the comments roll in as you grow from a nobody into a full-blown influencer. But be careful — sometimes the algorithm turns against you and your bait turns into HATE.
Will you ride the wave of viral success, or get cancelled by the internet?

Instruction Manual
Clickbait from Project Glaive is a browser-based interactive experience that dives headfirst into the strange, addictive world of attention-grabbing headlines and unpredictable outcomes. In this quirky game, players are challenged to navigate a series of choices inspired by sensational prompts, exaggerated scenarios, and curiosity-driven decision paths where nothing is quite what it seems.
At its core, Clickbait explores the idea of temptation through information, turning the familiar concept of viral headlines into a playful interactive format. Players are presented with intriguing situations that invite clicks, decisions, and reactions, each leading to branching results that can be humorous, surprising, or completely unexpected.
Rather than traditional combat or puzzle mechanics, the game focuses on choice-based storytelling and reaction-driven progression. Every decision pushes you deeper into a chain of unpredictable events, reflecting the chaotic energy of internet culture where curiosity often leads you somewhere you did not expect to go.
The experience is designed to be fast, engaging, and slightly satirical, poking fun at the modern digital habit of chasing curiosity gaps and sensational content. It mirrors the structure of online clickbait itself, transforming it into an interactive playground where the player is both the audience and the participant.
Built for quick browser play, Clickbait is lightweight and accessible, making it easy to jump in for short bursts of entertainment. Its replayability comes from exploring different choices and discovering alternate outcomes hidden behind each decision path.
Visually and mechanically minimal, the game keeps focus on its writing, humor, and branching logic. It thrives on surprise, often rewarding or punishing curiosity in ways that feel playful rather than serious, keeping players guessing with every click.
Perfect for fans of experimental storytelling, interactive fiction, and satirical takes on internet culture, Clickbait offers a clever twist on how attention itself becomes a game mechanic.
Step in, click carefully, and remember: in this world, curiosity doesn’t just kill the cat… it writes the next headline.
