Though, after a while, I did get very tired of clicking, so I only could get one guy to level 10 and another to level 5. With other clicker games, eventually, the game plays itself, and it is fully automated.

This game has some things going for it, but has a few too many long stretches of just clicking without much happening. I feel like there need to be a few more meaningful upgrades to make the game more interesting.

But, it's a clicker game with not really any twist; i barely think about the energy mechanic, only about how long it takes to get the new protesters. After I got to the \"I don't want to be criticized for my work\" level, I closed the game.
