Three new pages: guide, FAQ, world ranking
Until now everything you needed to know about the game was inside the game, which is no use to somebody deciding whether to start. There is now a full guide, a FAQ written from the questions people actually send us, and a page that explains the country ranking with the current top 20 and the player count behind every total.

Smash the Vase
A speed minigame with its own all-time leaderboard: 150 taps on a vase that cracks as you go, with a RELOAD button appearing in a random spot every 30 taps so that it is not purely about tapping speed. No bonuses, boosts or cards apply inside it — it is the only part of the game where nothing but your hand matters. The taps still count for your country.

Creating a clan now costs 10 Star Points instead of 200
At 200 Star Points — 40,000 clicks — almost nobody ever created one, so clans stayed empty and the people who wanted to organise their country had nowhere to do it. Ten is low enough that a normal evening of play pays for it.

Two fixes that were quietly costing people their names
On computers the profile panel could not be scrolled to the bottom, so the button to change your name was unreachable and a lot of players simply stayed "no name yet" without knowing why. Separately, a player who left a clan kept showing in its member list. Both are fixed.

Slow connections no longer get stuck on "Loading…"
On slow mobile networks some screens waited forever for data that never arrived instead of giving up and showing the game. The waits now have a time limit, and the game starts anyway.

The king of each challenge
Every duel now shows the single player who has put the most taps into it. It turned out to be the most contested thing in the game: people do not play for the total, they play to take that name off somebody.

One currency instead of three
Gold, coins and the rest were replaced by a single currency, Star Points, one for every 200 clicks. Everything — sounds, cosmetics, clans, proposing a challenge — is paid for with the same thing, and all of it is earned by playing. Nothing in the game can be bought with money.

The challenge hub
The game used to be one duel. It is now a hub of around fifteen running in parallel, and any registered player can propose a new one for a Star Point and have the others vote on it. A good part of what is live right now was suggested by players, not by us.
August – September 2026
The anti-cheat, and why your clicks sometimes stop counting
Counting moved entirely to the server, with limits on how fast taps can arrive, checks on the rhythm between them, and hourly and daily caps. Flagged accounts are excluded from the published leaderboards and from their country's total. It catches scripts, and it occasionally catches honest players who play enormous amounts — if that happens to you, write to us and we will look at the real numbers.
