In the game, Clickers are horrible-looking enemies that were once human—infected by Cordyceps in the brain. Clickers are basically the third stage of the mutation, although blinded but very sensitive to sound. Source: Instagram The appearance of Clickers has become common in cosplay art. Zayn Malik seems to find the terrifying look of these creatures edible enough, too. On his Instagram story, he wrote, “Thank you for all the birthday wishes. 32!! I’ve seen the projects you’ve been all creating to help others and couldn’t be more thankful. Thanks for raising funds for causes close to my heart.” Zayn Malik has proven his love for the gaming world multiple times. In 2020, he collaborated with Harry Potter: Puzzles and Spells, a mobile puzzle game by Zynga. Last year in August, he was the Shadow Duelist in Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel live-stream tournament, showcasing his skillset in the card game. The winner of “Is It Cake?” designed Zayn’s LoU birthday cake The cake designer was Elizabeth Rowe, aka the London Baker.
