Not another idle clicker
Most clicking games are idle games: the numbers go up on their own and you are only ever racing yourself. Pointless Button is built the other way round. Every click is yours to spend, your progress is measured against other players, and the board you land on is public.
You get a limited number of clicks each hour, so how and when you use them matters. Play often and you build a streak that boosts your allowance; miss a stretch and you can buy it back.
Ranked divisions and seasons
Every click adds rating, and rating places you in one of five divisions. A season lasts a few weeks; when it ends everyone resets to zero and the top of each division is paid out. A new player can reach the top of a fresh season, which is the whole point of resetting it. See how ranked divisions work.
A public leaderboard
The Hall of Fame lists the top players by day, week, season and all time, plus a separate board for click speed. Anyone can read it without an account.
Find out how fast you click
Not sure where you stand? The click speed test measures your clicks per second over anything from one second to a full minute, with no account needed. The statistics page shows how your score compares with real players.
Questions
Is Pointless Button free?
Yes. It runs in your browser, there is nothing to download and there are no ads. The in-game currency can be earned by playing.
Is there a clicking game with a leaderboard?
Yes. Pointless Button ranks every player on a public global leaderboard and places them in seasonal divisions, so your clicks are compared with other players rather than only counting up.
How do I get better at clicking games?
Measure first. The click speed test shows your clicks per second, and practising short runs with rests in between is how most players improve. Then use your hourly clicks in the ranked game.
