Universal Paperclips was a latecomer to the clicker genre. It starts off making you think its a simple clicker game, but then it turns out that Universal Paperclips has an ending.
Once you achieve the ending, you then have permission to turn off the Universal Paperclips (in fact, its an explicit option), and it installs a cookie or something that prevents the game from starting up again.
Its this "anti-clicker" mindset, despite looking like a simple clicker game, that makes me... ironically... come back to Universal Paperclips over the years.
