Go Lick The World: First Current Affairs Clicker Game

It's easy to sympathize with those tasked with keeping politicians from making verbal blunders. Take, for instance, President Joe Biden's memorable invitation to an audience of Irish dignitaries last year to "go lick the world," which left White House staffers across continents in disbelief.

This amusing faux pas inspired the casual game "Go Lick The World" from Pixel Play, which cleverly intertwines the absurdity of modern politics with the engaging world of casual clicker games. In "Go Lick The World," your mission is to lick the planet as fast as you can, albeit with your finger for safety and hygiene. The game features a rotating 3D Earth surrounded by various objects. Simply tap the planet, whether on land or sea, to accumulate points and climb the leaderboards.

To enhance your score and unlock "Licktastic" achievements, tap the LickLink satellites, inspired by Elon Musk's Starlink. Orbiting the Earth are also F35 jet planes, red electric cars, and Lick Force One, the aircraft associated with President Biden. Tapping these boosts your score significantly.

On the planet itself, you'll encounter satirical landmarks like the White House, Antarctica, the Great Pyramids, and even a humorously depicted San Francisco. As you play, the screen fills with an array of quirky objects, ranging from ice creams to space lasers, with themed items changing daily. From Impeach-Mints on Mondays to Tacos on Tuesdays, Swifties on Saturdays, and pizza slices for Pizzagate enthusiasts, there's always something new to discover.

Adding to the fun are various Earth skins and accessories you can unlock, such as the "clown world" face, trucker hats, an Uncle Sam patriotic hat, a Texas-themed cowboy hat with a censored sign over the Texas-Mexico border, solar eclipse glasses, and more. These are available by watching rewarded ads. The recent "Great Debate Update" introduces trucker hats representing both sides of the political spectrum and even a special hair accessory inspired by a prominent figure.

While "Go Lick The World" is free to download and play on the App Store and Google Play Store, in-app purchases are available to remove ads, enable auto-clicking with LickGPT, and add a blue tick to your profile.

UPDATE: The new "Great Debate Update" has been released, featuring trucker hats for each political side and the addition of Trump Hair.
