Okay, so to preface this: I’ve been a CookieRun fan since 2020, so YES, I am a little biased- but that didn’t stop this from being a banger of a title.I love its new art style, making the game feel light- almost like playing with toys. Now, if you plan on picking this up rarely, you should know that at the beginning, AFK caps at 8hrs. So let’s get to now. I’ve owned this game for two weeks (got it when it came out), I have every character promoted at least once, quest #4,000, global rank #380. I’ve got to say, it’s an amazing title. You can fight others, create insane synergy, the story seems pretty cool (spoiler: multiverse tomfoolery), and SO MANY gacha pulls. I woke up this morning on 30-30 and they added an auto-quest feature (which auto-completes quests, a welcome addition to a previously tedious aspect of the game) and immediately claimed 5,700 draws.The caveat to this is the rates are horrible (but they get better the more you progress), with ‘SSR’ (equivalent of legendary) cookies having a .05% chance of being drawn— I blew through 4,000 of the aforementioned cutters (it’s gacha currency) to get two, so don’t be shocked when you can’t get immediate 10 star SSR teams.My only complaint is how checklist-like the game seems: do these dungeons to maximize your output, do these quests every day, this and that. I feel like it defeats the purpose of an IDLE adventure, but it’s also a hill I won’t be dying on and am willing to overlook.In conclusion… get this game. (If you want quicker progression, buy the ad removal. No forced ads, but it gives more gacha pulls!)

This game is not worth your time. There is no gameplay. All you will do in this game is spend 10 different kinds of currency raising stats you will never track. This game is the epitome of brain rot. There are flashing lights and bright colors in the middle of your screen, then a bunch of red dots on various buttons all around your screen to drive you insane. The amount of times this game pesters you to watch ads for rewards is insufferable. There’s an ad on the side of your screen, there’s sometimes a flying present on your screen, there’s something trying to get you to go to the gacha. Don’t even get me started on the red reward ad icons…The game attempts to make itself look innocent by employing meta/self aware humor to itself, but it falls flat once you realize that it’s really not a joke! The mercenary trio characters are insufferable as hell. I hope the entire trio are never imported in any significant way into the other games. Don’t let the pretty colors fool you, Devsisters is reusing tons of assets from Ovenbreak and Kingdom in this game because they probably knew this was a sinking ship even when developing it. They made this game to farm day 1 whales and krakens. After the Crumble events end in the other games or people finish them, this game will become a wasteland of people with sunk cost fallacy.Devsisters, stop making these pointless games. If you play this game for the event, make sure to uninstall it as soon as you’re done. You’ll be doing your brain cells a service.

I originally just wanted the rewards for Cookie Run: Kingdom and I thought this was going to just be like the other recent games that Devsis released but so far I’m surprised I’ve been really enjoying it. I’ve even been playing it more than Kingdom. I don’t really have any complaints besides there being no actual way to friend other people? And also the guild chat; I thought when you would chat in there it would stay there whether you close the game or not. That way, other guild members can come back and see your chat from when they were offline (like Kingdom’s guilds, for example, if that makes sense). Apparently it doesn’t do that? It confuses me why they wouldn’t add that in. But still, I love the game and hope maybe that those features are someday added

I’ve played many Idle games in the past but I have never had such a problem with performance as I have with this game. I click one button and over half the time it goes to a loading screen where it either loads for 5-30 seconds or just crashes the game. This is like literally just me pressing any button; like the game shouldn’t have problems bringing me to the missions screen but sometimes I have to wait a couple seconds and other times my game literally crashes. It could totally be an issue with my phone but again I have not had nearly as bad of problems with any other Idle games I’ve played. I’ve tried looking for settings to lower the quality of the game so it’s not so harsh on my phone but there are none. After the game crashes it literally causes other apps on my phone to run worse. I really enjoy lots about the game but if this is not something the devs can fix then I see no reason to continue playing the game.
