Cookies Inc. - Idle Tycoon

I used to love this game- I used to play it every day. I spent a good amount of money on it, bought all the premium upgrades, bought extra rainbow cookies, removed the ads. Then around update #71 or something like that- in the 70s- absolutely trashed the game. The system where you had to have a certain amount of showcase items unlocked to access higher structure tiers was horrible- I had unlocked the highest tier several times before, however now because I didn’t have enough showcase items, couldn’t progress at a rate that was fun or engaging whatsoever. I stopped playing completely a few updates after that, as it introduced several more game mechanics that were baffling to me and, again, not fun or engaging whatsoever. It provided a massive detriment to the game’s overall good qualities. I came back to the game after about a year now, and let me just say, it’s worse than I could have imagined. The entire game is different, and not in a good way. What even ARE leagues anymore? You nerfed one of the most fun aspects of the game- the community. Why can’t developers just stop updating a game when it doesn’t NEED anymore improvements?? I don’t understand it. Your game was great, Naveen. Incredible even. I think I left a review some time ago, praising the game for how fun to play and consistently rewarding it was. But I’m sorry to say that you ruined it. I wish you the best in your future game developing career, however I don’t have much hope after seeing what this game has become. Cheers, Disappointed

So I messed up and now I can’t change my bakery name anymore. What I did was is paste a name into the bakery name thing and apparently there was a lot of spaces in the front of it. So now the name is off the screen and I can’t press it anymore to change it. This is only a problem because I don’t have all of the themes yet or the black hole upgrade. This happened a while ago before the black hole upgrade came out and I’m bummed that I can’t get it. For anyone wanting an actual review for the game, it’s great. The developers are amazing and are always in touch with the community on discord and help out a lot. The game is constantly updated almost every 2 weeks and not a single update has only been a “bug fix” update. Every update that has come to the game has brought lots of things to find and do. I got this game when it first came out and it has changed a lot. If you made it this far in the review, Thanks!

Overall the game is fantastic, there’s a lot of things in the game that you can strive to get done like fully mastering cookies and bakeries to getting all of the event items and showcase items. It’s all very engaging and fresh every update. One thing I would like to see changed is the daily events for Thursday and Saturday. For Thursday quests do not give enough rewards to make having double of those rewards worth a whole daily event, it’s basically useless, if the devs want to keep that event it needs to be a greater boost to make it more worth the time playing on that day. Saturday’s event is also not very good. The extra 50% for loot bags doesn’t feel good enough to make me want to play on Saturdays because it isn’t very effective unless the player has the lucky loot premium upgrade but that costs money and many players want to play completely free. A suggestion could be to change one of those days to ‘leagues level up 2-3x faster’ that would be a very effective way to make me come back on that given day to grind. Other than that great game, keep up the great updates.
