Game description:

Clickolding is a dark narrative-driven game where the story unfolds based on the player’s decisions, set in a seemingly ordinary hotel room that harbors a chilling presence. In the corner of the room sits a disturbing figure wearing a mask, silently insisting that the player interact with an old mechanical counter. The game presents a stark choice: stay and engage with the mysterious task required by the masked figure, or leave and forfeit the promise of money and whatever unknown opportunities it may lead to. Each decision alters the course of the narrative and the essence of who the player and the enigmatic figure become, delving into psychological transformations that question the very nature of identity and consequence.

Immersive Gameplay and Artistic Expression

The game mechanics center around the meticulously 3D-modeled mechanical counter, which becomes a pivotal element of gameplay and story progression. Clickolding is crafted by the developers of Life Eater and El Paso, Elsewhere, known for their intricate and captivating storytelling that grips players until the very end. The narrative experience is likened to a dream-like conversation with the so-called Accountant, blurring the lines between reality and a surreal, otherworldly dimension. Complementing the eerie atmosphere is an avant-garde jazz soundtrack by the award-winning composer RJ Lake, enhancing the game’s mood and immersing players in a uniquely unsettling audiovisual experience. Throughout the game, even mundane elements like a locked bathroom door add layers of mystery and confinement, emphasizing the game’s overarching theme of inescapable fate and psychological intrigue.
