Proud Dad Simulator Brings Nostalgia and Affirmations to PC Gamers
If you’ve ever wished for a game that showers you with unconditional support, Proud Dad Simulator is here to make that dream a reality. Developed by indie studio BitMeister, this quirky clicker game launched on March 6, 2025, bringing a mix of pixel-art nostalgia, microgames, and fatherly affirmations to Steam.
What started as an inside joke—“click Dad to get an affirmation”—quickly evolved into something much bigger. The three-person team at BitMeister spent months refining the concept, turning it into a fully-fledged experience that’s equal parts wholesome and hilarious.
A Clicker Game with a Heart
At its core, Proud Dad Simulator is simple: you click on Dad, and he delivers one of 12 unique affirmations designed to lift your spirits. Whether you’re grinding through a tough boss fight, tackling schoolwork, or just having a rough day, Proud Dad is there with words of encouragement. For those who need a dose of positivity on the go, Porta-Dad Mode provides instant affirmations whenever you need them.
Dadware: A Throwback to Classic Mini-Games
Beyond the clicker mechanics, Proud Dad Simulator includes 10 dad-themed microgames, collectively known as Dadware. These challenges are inspired by classic retro games and range from perfecting a golf swing to ninja-chopping milk crates and mastering parallel parking. Each successful challenge unlocks additional affirmations and contributes to the game’s 12 unique achievements—because what’s a dad simulator without some good old-fashioned bragging rights?
A Game That Just Feels Good
With its charming pixel-art Dad, retro aesthetic, and lighthearted humor, Proud Dad Simulator is more than just a game—it’s an experience designed to motivate, uplift, and entertain. The real challenge? Becoming Dad’s Favorite, a title that requires collecting every affirmation, mastering every microgame, and proving yourself worthy of fatherly praise.
