I'm not going to say it's that interactive but simply that it's just ever-so-slightly less brainrot than clicking endlessly (at least until automation upgrades remove this sole form of engagement). And unlike Cookie Clicker you at least have something to do between waiting ten minutes staring at the screen between each golden cookie allowing you to get the next upgrade. Imo it's still bad, but better, as an active incremental gamer, even if I would have preferred a different direction. And clickers hurt my wrist a lot more than these tbh.
