They're a simplified, text-based version of those empire-building games.

it's 1 quadrillion dollars

WTF! Guess when they added the meth star and achievements, they tweaked some of the random events that happen, since this happened at 0%

After the first 20 minutes or so of the meth game, you don't really need to click any more, other than buying and selling manufacturing, distribution, and upgrades.

I still can't get busted. I'm at 518.5% chance of getting busted. I lost a few buildings and such overnight, but nothing major. I've purposefully only bought things that increase my chances of getting busted (other than one crooked senator, which was needed to unlock rival cartels), but still only a few seizures every once in a while.

What in the world:





Wat is this upgrade??

You need to buy it. It makes the grandma's angry and will turn some of your golden cookies red, which have a chance of causing you to lose cookies, lower cookie production, MASSIVELY increase cookie production for like 7s, or cause a cookie chain that can get you 66.6 quad cookies.

Eventually your bingo center will research The Elder Covenant, which allows you to turn off the Angry Grandmas at a cost of 5% of your CPS. You should buy that (it gives an achievement) then turn it back off when you are done researching The Elder Pact, which is initially a half hour buff that turns off the angry grandmas and increases in cost each time. The golden cookies are wayyy better than the red cookies, so if you're actively clicking them it's best to have the elder pact on.

cookie chain is available with golden cookies too, but i'm not sure if the probability of getting it is different.

Yeah I'm not sure if it used to be only red cookies, or if it's just more likely. Cookie Chains are super annoying now though. It's often impossible to continue the chain because the cookie appears for <1s.

2 more new meth things to buy!

This is so hilarious to read when you have no idea wtf is going on lol. Cookies and meth.

It broke my game when I bought it but I havent played since a couple patches ago.

they changed the risk for something. i went from 0% before a refresh to 984%. whoops.

Buy a lot of sleezy lawyers.

I'm probably getting busted left and right on my work computer. Wonder what it'll be like when I get in on Monday morning.

i already had 109 sleezy lawyers with max upgrade. i still have no idea what they switched.

Was reading Dwarf Fortress posts and this one made me really lol

"I found a kidnapped dwarf [ //in DF, some creatures can infiltrate your fort and steal children ] in Legends mode called Ingish Pillarspeak, who ended up being the sole defender of his adopted goblin civilization, killing over two hundred dwarves, including his own mother, father, father in law (he married another kidnapped dwarf, she was killed by dwarves early in the war), brother in law (dueled him five times), several brothers, and a sister. He was at war with his original dwarven civilization from the year 30 to 70, armed with a crossbow and presumably a knife. He liked to rip off the third toe of his opponents. Oh, and he ate the dwarves he killed (never his own family, at least)."

I looked at that cookie game and nothing happened after I clicked the button like 50 times (except for getting 50 cookies). I assumed it was a joke site that just counted the number of clicks or tested AHK scripts. How long do you need to click before something actually happens?

You use those cookies to buy the upgrades on the right. To get more cookies. So you can buy more stuff to get more cookies.

bleh I decided I would get to 2k Heavenly Chips then reset. Left the game running without clicking any golden cookies, got like fifty heavenly chips in four days. Was sitting at the computer all day yesterday, so clicked pretty much every golden cookie that popped up and got 450 golden cookies in ~8 hours.

Frenzy + Click Frenzy + using Mousekeys (alt+shift+numlock, then use 5 and + on the numerical keypad for three clicks and just spam with your fingers) when you have a couple hours worth of production banked is ridiculously OP. Like 10 HC and ~90quad in 27secs.

How long are you willing to be stuck for?
In the old days you could be stuck going around in circles, trying every item and every combination of items for days maybe weeks or just until you gave up completely. Nowadays the answer is always just a Google search away and its so tempting to give up after ten minutes.
I'm stuck in Silent Hill 2. For a about a couple of hours I have gone round this maze like building reopening all the old rooms I have been in before, but it feels wrong to look up the solution. If I do it now how long will I wait next time an hour half an hour and how long until I'm just following a walk-through and not really playing at all?

Yeah that's something I struggle with as well. It's way too easy nowadays to find a walkthrough or look up a video.

When Ocarina of Time came out back in the day I messed up the water temple and got stuck, put it down for a year, then went back and easily found the right switch.

Yeah, 10 or 15 minutes or quitting for the 'session' and restarting fresh at that new area and trying again are about my limits.

My cookie clicker game is getting pretty stagnant:



I have no visible upgrades to purchase (except revoking the elder covenant, which I'm guessing I have no reason to do), I have 85 antimatter condensers and the next one costs 577 trillion - I guess I get an upgrade that makes them twice as efficient again at 100 condensers, but it's going to take so much grinding to get to 100 (by my calculations, 27 quadrillion - 3x as much as I've cooked all-time, with no noticeable ways to drastically improve my cps to get there) that it seems stupid to try. So, uh, now what?

Reset to get heavenly chips. With the amount of cookies you've baked you should get 100+. Each chip adds 2% to your CPS.

EDIT: Looks like your missing a bunch of upgrades too.
