Go Lick The World Might Be the First Ever Current Affairs Clicker

droidgamers.com:

You have to feel sorry for the people whose job it is to prevent politicians from saying stupid things. 

Things like “go lick the world”.

Which is what President Joe Biden invited an audience of Irish dignitaries to do in a speech last year, prompting White House staffers on at least two continents to put their heads in their hands. 

Go Lick The World, from casual game developer Pixel Play, is a wry take on the absurdity of modern politics that marries up the silly and addictive world of current affairs with the silliest, most addictive gaming genre: the casual clicker. 

Your goal in Go Lick The World is to literally lick the world as quickly as possible (though, for hygiene and safety reasons, we recommend licking it with your finger). The world in question is a rotating 3D planet earth, orbited by a vast array of objects.

You can boost your score and unlock “Licktastic” achievements by tapping LickLink satellites, based on Elon Musk’s Starlink network. 

Also in orbit are F35 jet planes, red electric cars, and Lick Force One, the plane used by President Joe Biden himself. These all boost your points when you manage to tap them into oblivion. 

Down on earth, meanwhile, you’ll find tongue-in-cheek artifacts such as the White House, Antarctica, the Great Pyramids, and an ordure-soaked San Francisco. 

As you play, the screen becomes increasingly crowded with weird and wonderful objects, from ice creams to space lasers, and in some cases these vary by the day.

Monday is for Impeach-Mints, Tuesday is for Tacos, Saturday is for Swifties, and pizza slices are for fans of the infamous Pizzagate conspiracy theory. 

Adding another layer of amusement are a range of Earth skins and accessories you can unlock, including a “clown world” face, trucker hats, Uncle Sam patriotic hat, Texas-themed cowboy hat (with censored sign over the Texas-Mexico
