User blog:Akrie/My Experiences with Kakao Cookie Run



Out of sheer boredom from the annoying "Game Data cannot be downloaded" bug that has been persisting for over a week now, I decided to give Kakao Cookie Run a try. Made a Korean iTunes account and downloaded it without any problems and dove right in! Well, that's pretty much all the new and cool things I've seen so far in Kakao Cookie Run!

My Progress with Kakao Cookie Run
I tried to speed up progress at the start by using secret codes however only AMAZINGKIWICOOK2 worked which gave me just 21 Crystals total. Drat. I wanted to buy Angel Cookie right off the bat, but oh well. I also tried to buy the Platinum Drop bundle I mentioned recently, but that didn't work either. Uh... whoops? Looks like it's going to be a rough road ahead!

Since I knew what exactly I had to do, after a couple of runs with Brave Cookie I immediately brought Buttercream Choco Cookie as you start with 10,000 Coins.

I was leveling real fast with the Double XP event in effect. REAL fast. I hit level 10 in no time. I used the Gift points and got Strawberry Cookie and Cream Cookie for free, putting my Cookie count to 4. Due to how quickly I was levelling up (and how generous the game is with Coins) I was able to get my Energy to 20 and fully upgraded Buttercream Choco Cookie with no problems, and brought a few pets from the Common Pet Egg. My first pet I ever got was Cheeseberry. Well... not too bad. I eventually got all the C rank pets, including the Facebook Like and got them all to level 8. Slapped on a Buttercream Choco Cookie's Butter and got Bright Cookie to level 8 to get her Bright Cookie's Lollipop Bite, which I promptly equipped into my new 2nd treasure slot for having 5 Cookies.

After a few more runs, I decided to try to get a new pet from the Common Pet Egg. Got a Mocha Delight. Not bad, but I was aiming for Hat of Santa... and I got it right after! I was rocking with a 40% Coin Bonus with Buttercream Choco Cookie and Hat of Santa. Of course, that was quickly made moot point when I got a Pets Lucky Draw from a Gift box and got the Wishing Star pet. That was when I immediately switched over to Bright Cookie + Wishing Star, which gives a whooping 42% Extra XP bonus which is huge under the Double XP event for a new player, and blazed through 10 levels in record time.

During that time I evolved Buttercream Choco Cookie's Butter and Bright Cookie's Lollipop Bite to Buttercream Choco Pancake and Sugar Covered Lollipop Shard, respectively, but then I got a Golden Wreath from a Supreme Treasure ticket. What a stroke of luck! :p I also got my Energy to 25.

It's kind of fun to see how fast you can get through the game again once you've played it before! :P

I got this thing while I was level 24. It seems to be a graphical change to the Magic Stone Ornament (it's now purple instead of pink) but it gives more Magic Powder (100 more) and is purple. All other A ingredients give 50, while ironically enough, S ones give 120. Looks like it's excusively for extracting Magic Powder from.

Oh, and I hit level 25 and the final treasure slot opened up. I put the Buttercream Choco Pancake in. Now it's time for the push to level 30 - it's slowing down here at this point, requiring 5 to 6 runs per level compared to 3 to 4. It's going to be fun!

I finally got to level 30, the magical number I've been waiting for! It's time to unlock Angel Cookie! But that's not all... apparently you can get some bonuses for buying Angel Cookie through a "bundle deal" in the Cookie select screen.

The biggest thing is when you buy it through the bundle deal, you don't actually use Coins to buy Angel Cookie! My Coin count stayed the same but I could use Angel Cookie after buying the bundle. I got a nice amount of Gift Points as well. But the 20 thing? I'm not even sure what it is... still, I got Angel Cookie for free. I even had enough Coins to get her to level 8 and get the majestic Angel Cookie's Holy Feather! Too bad I'm only 8 Crystals away from buying Mint Choco Cookie...
