this game is not a normal clicker game, it plays more like one of those merger games and has enough combinations to fill up a spreadsheet. For the sake of your own sanity I highly suggest working towards the journal first. Also do be warned due to how the game is coded you can and may incur performance issues later in game because its not just incrementing numbers under the hood. I found this out when attempting to cheat some bonus resources so I didn't need to string along a bunch of combinations.
