Welcome to the Parlor! Today we have something really special for you, buddy… a brand new game by indie developer SHROOMYCHRIST called BLOODMONEY!
Published on August 3, 2025, this freeware clicker game is simple in terms of skill and rules: just click the cute little animated guy. For every click, you earn money to pay for an expensive operation.
Thankfully for you, philanthropist Harvey Harvington is a generous guy and is quite willing to share his fortune with you for a few thousand or so clicks! All is good and well, at first. Gentle taps eventually give you the opportunity to unlock items that can be purchased in the shøp that will grant you even more money with each click! However, not only do these items come at a monetary cost, they are also quite steep within the price of morality.
Unfortunately for Harvey, humanity can be pretty heartless in the face of zero repercussions. After all, why sit for over an hour clicking 25,000 times when you can earn more money much faster using the weapons unlocked in the shøp? I mean, why have the weapons available at all if not to be used? And Harvey makes it perfectly clear that these mere weaponized clicks cause him tremendous pain. He often begs you to stop, pleads for his life, and even breaks the 4th wall when it comes to his existence and how it has purpose despite being an animation in a video game. Cold.
The voice actor, Dexter Manning, did an incredible job of portraying Harvey, even during the most gruesome scenes.
BLOODMONEY! overall is an incredible experience into the limitations of one’s morality, even on such a small scale. The continuous reminders that Harvey is experiencing pain while inflicting it on him for the reward of paying for your own virtual operation gives this a chilling look into what one is capable of when there are no real (at least physical) consequences.
You can play BLOODMONEY! on PC and your mobile device. But be forwarned: you may never look at pretty pastel animations the same way again.
