Infinite Button Simulator is a text-based incremental game centered around pressing buttons to earn money, the primary currency used to purchase upgrades and progress through reset layers like prestige, ascension, and collapse. Its minimalist interface belies a complex progression system featuring runes, sigils, glyphs, and a unique automation mechanic tied to a manual slider minigame.
Infinite Button Simulator’s gameplay revolves around clicking buttons to earn money, which is spent on upgrades to boost earnings or unlock new features. As players progress, they encounter reset layers that sacrifice progress for multipliers, alongside a complex system of runes, sigils, and automation.
The core loop is simple: click buttons to earn money. Each press contributes to a cumulative stat, with upgrades increasing the money per click or adding passive income. The game’s early stages are heavily click-intensive, with players often resorting to autoclickers to manage the repetitive task. One player reported 146,657 manual button presses over 9 hours to reach full unlock completion, highlighting the game’s demanding nature.
Prestige: Resets money and upgrades for a multiplier, typically requiring 40+ prestiges to reach higher layers.
Ascension: A deeper reset that boosts prestige gains, unlocked around 1e100 money.
Collapse: The highest reset layer, offering collapsium for permanent upgrades but criticized for bugs like resetting skill levels without rewards.
Players can craft runes by merging five of the same level and tier, which enhance static upgrades for buttons. Sigils, forged through resets, and glyphs add further boosts, though community feedback suggests these systems are overly complex and could be streamlined into a single currency. For example, a player noted forging 19,707 sigils to optimize their build, indicating significant grind.
Infinite Button Simulator is a polarizing yet intriguing addition to the incremental genre, offering deep progression and strategic depth marred by grind-heavy mechanics and limited automation. For players willing to embrace its click-intensive loop, it provides hours of addictive gameplay and community-driven discovery.
