This is probably one of the most addicting and pointless tapping games I've ever played. It's an entry to the french jam "Partim 500 numéro 7".
The gaming part is quite simple yet genius at the same time. Using both the human tendency of clicking or tapping buttons wherever they see one along with the contrarian mindset. Now what will happen if you tell the human not to click that button in the middle of the screen, over and over again? Of course I'll click/tap it! You can't tell me what to do mx. game system! (You fell into the trapper's trap)
The game title is in the middle of the screen, with the button right below it. You can tap and click and tap, and every time you repeat the same action, in the upper right-most corner, sentences are appearing so attention should be payed to them too. There's a limit to how many times the clicking and tapping lasts. For me it lasted about less than two minutes.
It's not a game where you have much to read compared with the other ones you'll find on the archive, and it's most certainly not a traditional interactive fiction game, but it's short, cute and appeals to those who are into point-and-click/tapping games. You do have to know French if you want to understand what you are reading, but that's not a necessity if you are in it for the sole purpose of clicking that button which trigers the sentences and Christmas lights (if you click hard enough).
Overall rating: ~4/5
