Game Introduction

Cookie Clicker is the original idle game that started the entire incremental gaming genre. Created by Julien Thiennot (Orteil) and published by DashNet, this legendary game has captivated millions of players worldwide since its release in 2013.

The premise is beautifully simple: click the big cookie to make cookies, then use those cookies to buy buildings and upgrades that make cookies for you automatically. What starts as a simple clicking game evolves into a complex idle empire where you can ascend to gain permanent upgrades and unlock new dimensions of gameplay.

With its charming pixel art, witty flavor text, and incredibly deep progression systems, Cookie Clicker has become a cultural phenomenon that continues to receive updates and new content, including recent additions like seasons, fortune cookies, pets, and even more buildings and achievements.

How to Play

Click the big cookie to generate cookies, then invest in buildings like Cursors, Grandmas, Farms, and more that automatically produce cookies for you.

Purchase upgrades to increase your cookie production efficiency, unlock new buildings, and discover powerful synergies between different elements.

Collect golden cookies that appear randomly to gain temporary bonuses like increased production, extra cookies, or special effects that can dramatically boost your progress.

Unlock achievements by reaching various milestones, completing specific challenges, or discovering hidden secrets throughout your cookie-baking journey.

Use the Prestige system to ascend and gain Heavenly Chips, which provide permanent upgrades that carry over to future runs and unlock new gameplay mechanics.

Explore minigames like the Garden, Pantheon, Grimoire, and Stock Market to further optimize your cookie production and discover new strategies.
