1. Planet Clicker

   • context
     • This game is very simple yet had a cool concept of clicking the earth to generate energy which could be used to buy upgrades like an auto clicker or click modifiers like a campfire.
   • Aesthetics
     • Images
       • The Earth is put front and centre as the main clicker
       • The shop included images of things that would cost energy like a campfire, windmill, etc. This keeps to the theme of generating energy
     • Theme
       • The game revolves around the earth in space and generating energy as its main themes. However the title seems misleading since it says "planet clicker" leading to the belief that more planets (other than the earth) would be available to click.
     • colours
       • The colours used such and green and blue go hand in hand with the main theme of Earth.
   • Upgrades
     • The upgrades included a variety of modifiers and auto clickers yet not upgrades in the form of changing the clicker where given.
   • User experience
     • The concept of generating energy to buy auto clickers and modifiers that generate energy (in real life) was very good.

2. Bee Clicker

   • Context
     • This game is very simple and included clicking a bee with a net above it, making it look like each click captured a bee. However, with in it's shop the only upgrades possible were auto clickers.
   • Aesthetics
     • Images
       • There is a bee styled as the main clicker
       • In addition to the bee there is a net making it look like the bee is being captured at each click
       • Little hexagon graphics are also included, when clicking of the bee and/or net they spring out of the bee
     • Theme
       • The bee theme portrayed in the game is very easy going and funky
     • Colours
       • The colours yellow and black are heavily used, which matches the theme of bees
       • Uncharacteristically an odd shade of green is used as well which does not match the theme
   • Upgrades
     • The upgrades presented seemed to only be auto clicker upgrades.
   • User experience
     • The concept of the bee clicker, being every click was catching a bee was very nice
     • Things like the colours and theme could be refined a little more
