    Start with the tutorials in the Learn section. That will teach you the basics of how to use Unity, how to write simple code, etc.

    Then, the easiest way to do your first clicker game would probably be in a Canvas. Though you could also do it with Sprites. You'll know about both of those once you've worked through some of the tutorials.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. float money = 0;
    2. money += 1;

    Look for a simpler game engine…unless you have a unity end point for other reasons

    Simpler? This is exactly the level of complexity Unity is intended for.

    I don’t disagree - my answer was specifically meant for the OP & based on the implied skill set from the questions asked.

    edit: …and not in a bad way. Upgrade to unity if you want to monetize, deploy to different platforms, etc…
