BLOODMONEY! is a chilling clicker horror visual novel developed by SHROOMYCHRIST, released on August 3rd, 2025 for PC. The game blends clicker mechanics with horror and RPG elements in a uniquely twisted way, where players dive into a world where each click brings both profit and moral decay, testing endurance against escalating stakes.
Story
You have a life-threatening condition and the only way to cure it is through an expensive $25,000 operation. BLOODMONEY! tells the story of a protagonist caught in a high-stakes struggle to gather $25,000 under extraordinary pressure. Then, Harvey Harvington, a mysterious vendor, appears on the roadside and offers a seemingly simple solution to your financial crisis.
On the way home, they encounter a roadside booth run by a man named Harvey Harman Harvington, or just Harvey Harvington, who offers $1 for each click on his image. At first, it seems simple, but the player quickly discovers that earning more money requires inflicting pain on Harvey himself.
Gameplay Mechanics
Core Clicker System
BloodMoney's core mechanic is simple yet haunting: each time you click on Harvey Harvington, you get $1. However, the catch is that every click causes him pain, and the more you hurt him, the higher the payout.
Tools and Progression
The gameplay centers on attacking Harvey Harvington to raise $25,000 for life-saving surgery. Each interaction causes this character pain but increases your cash, starting at $1 and growing as you use harsher tools like feathers, needles, hammers, scissors, matches, and knives.
Players can use different items, like needles or hammers, to increase the amount Harvey pays, creating a disturbing progression system where moral compromise leads to greater financial gain.
Combo System
Players can strike Harvey, chain insane combos, and beat the clock in this darkly hilarious challenge, adding a timing-based element to the clicking mechanics.
Themes and Philosophy
Moral Complexity
The game makes you think about how far you would go to make a quick buck, exploring themes of desperation, survival, and moral compromise. BLOODMONEY! isn't just another clicker—it's a sharp, unsettling twist on the genre. Instead of chasing meaningless high scores, every tap carries a weight, forcing you to live with the cost of each action.
Definition
