CookieRun: Kingdom Beginner's Guide and Tips | BlueStacks (2024)

CookieRun: Kingdom is one of the best cookie run games on mobile, offering players with tons of exploration and base-building options. The core gameplay is more reminiscent of old-school JRPGs wherein you build a team of formidable cookies and take on gruesome challenges in the adventure mode! What’s more? You can train and equip these cookies with gear for better stats! In this guide, we will be diving deeper into the game’s core mechanics as we aim to explain them to new players who might be looking to start their adventures.

Understanding the Gameplay Mechanics of CookieRun: Kingdom

CookieRun: Kingdom is a great mix of both adventure and base-building genres, resulting in a beautiful title that has it “All”. Players can toggle with their base for hours without getting bored as there are multiple decorative options. Naturally, you should first be focusing on upgrading your Cookie Castle, the main building from where all operations take place. Your goal should be to construct as many buildings as possible in the shortest possible time. Keep in mind, each time you increase a building’s construction level, the time taken to develop also increases.

There are many different types of buildings in CookieRun: Kingdom, such as Carpentry Shop, Bakery, Cookie House, Lumberjack’s Lodge, Smithy, Jellybean Farm, Sugar Quarry, Jammery, Windmill, Jellyberry Orchard, Jampie Diner, Artisan’s Workshop, Flower Shop, and more. Each of these buildings pose an important role in giving you resources over time. Others are important for tasks such as decoration, housing cookies, and more. You can level up each building to increase their potency, albeit they do require more resources to upgrade.

Understanding the Combat Mechanics of CookieRun: Kingdom

To sum it up, the combat mechanics of CookieRun: Kingdom are more automated with little to no manual intervention required. Players make up a team of 5 different cookies, and 3 unique jelly spells. Keep in mind, the spell slots unlock as you gradually progress through the World Exploration mode. Ensure that your cookie’s power level is higher than the recommended power tip for the particular stage you’re trying to fight. In the battle preview screen, you will be able to see what type of enemies are going to come. Strategize accordingly and decimate your opponents in a live battle!

The battles, like we said, are automated. Your cookies have different active and passive abilities. The passive abilities will work on their own with the help of AI (Artificial Intelligence). As your cookies slay waves of enemies in a real-time battle, they will gain energy represented in yellow color under their frames. Once full, it will shine bright, indicating that their active ultimate ability is ready to be used. Simply click on the cookie avatar to unleash their ability. Each world exploration stage costs some amount of Stamina Jellies, so be mindful as you progress.

The Gacha System

CookieRun: Kingdom harbors a robust gacha system from where players can recruit new cookies, treasures, and other items. Much like any other gacha game, there are several banners, each having different mechanics. Players can recruit on any of the banners, given they have unlocked them by fulfilling the requirements. The summoning currencies used on these banners include Special Cookie Cutter, Magic Cookie Cutter, Treasure Tickets, and Crystals. Cookies come in different rarities, with the highest being Ancient, Legendary, and Dragon. The lowest rarity that a Cookie can have is Common.

The higher the rarity of the cookie, the better their base stats as well as stronger their abilities. For more in-depth information we would recommend checking out an up-to-date tier list. The probabilities to recruit cookies are as follows:

• Ancient + Legendary + Dragon Cookies – 2.536% chance of being pulled
• Super Epic + Epic Cookies – 19.280% chance of being pulled
• Rare Cookies – 36.932% chance of being pulled

• Common Treasure – 58% chance of being pulled
