Loot Finch / The six games
The list is short on purpose. Each game below runs free in a desktop browser tab on CrazyGames or Poki, sold nothing for money on the screens we opened, showed no slot machine, wheel or lottery, and has its own page here with first prices, saves and money.
One capybara per click, then a Cursor at 50 for 1 more per click and an Auto Click at 125 for 1 per second. Both prices stayed the same through 2 purchases. Two buttons offer a reward for watching a video.

25 kiwis make a bag, and the first bag paid 25 koins. The Kiwi Kursor upgrade cost 15 koins, then 17, then 20; an Auto Kiwiker at 40 keeps the bags going without clicks. A Boost button offers extra kiwis for a video.

The counter opened at $24, a click on a brick pays $1 and the first ball costs $25. The next 2 balls were priced $38 and $56, and all of them earn with no clicks. The settings can export the save, and we saw no video-reward button.

You start with $10 and the first shaft costs $10. One round of 3 clicks paid $20. A shaft upgrade costs $11.6 and then $13.46, a manager $100 and the second shaft $1000. We saw no video-reward button in about 4 minutes.

A box of leek pays 1 coin. 10 coins buy the first factory, which turns 10 leek into 1 soup, and another 10 buy a farm that works without tapping. The description promises income while you are offline; our 4 minutes away could not confirm it.

A text adventure that begins as a clicker. Wood buys traps from 10, a cart at 30 and huts from 100, and the stranger by the fire becomes a builder. It has an ending and a grim story; the app editions are rated 13+ and PEGI 7.

No video-reward button means we saw none on the screens we opened: A Dark Room, Idle Breakout and Idle Mining Empire. In the last of these a lightning icon above the manager was left unopened. Capybara Clicker, Kiwi Clicker and Leek Factory Tycoon each showed such a button.
Export is ticked where the game itself can write the save out: Idle Breakout in its settings and A Dark Room through its save. menu.
Earning while away is ticked where the game or its description says so: the description of Leek Factory Tycoon, and the foreman’s line about managers in Idle Mining Empire. Neither claim was tested here.
An age rating is ticked where a UK app store rates an edition of the game: A Dark Room, Capybara Clicker and Leek Factory Tycoon. A rating given to an app does not cover a web page with adverts round the game.
Idle Ants and Babel Tower were opened on the same day. The ledger records why neither is on the list.
