Licorice Cookie is an Epic Cookie released on April 15th, 2021, alongside his Pet, Bat-Cat. He summons Licorice Servants, commanding them to do various actions that earn him points.

He was also released alongside of a buff to the Thunderdrum Treasure.

He has a chance of being obtained from any chest that can produce an Epic Cookie without having to achieve any special goals to unlock him.

Story
''With a great portion of the blackest licorice extract in his dough and a grim-looking scythe, this Cookie is up to no good. From a young age, Licorice Cookie dreamed of becoming a wizard but never received the recognition he so rightfully deserved. Eventually, he turned to the forbidden arts of Black Magic. With time, Licorice Cookie assembled a small army of Chewy Licorice Servants raised to do his bidding. On his dark path, he met Dark Enchantress Cookie. The might of the sorceress astonished Licorice Cookie, and it didn't take long before he swore his allegiance. Now, the Cookie is working flat out to earn his new mistress's favor. And it seems like Dark Enchantress Cookie is not easily pleased, as Licorice Cookie's diary filled with everyday rants and complaints could now fill up a library.''

Skill


Once the small gauge is full, Licorice Cookie summons devious Licorice Servants that perform various abilities after a certain period. Licorice Chargers rush forward and destroy obstacles. Licorice Bombers create a giant explosion which leaves behind Skeleton Bomb Jellies. Licorice Potion Keepers toss Potions. Level Up to earn more points for Licorice Servants' abilities.

Spirits appear at certain intervals. When a spirit is present, Double Jumping turns the Slide button into a Reaper Button. Use the Reaper button to siphon the spirit's vitality for points. After reaping a certain number of spirits, Licorice Cookie will summon a Giant Licorice Minion that charges forward, blocking holes and destroying everything in its path. The stronger the enchanted power, the more points earned from reaping spirits and summoning the Giant Licorice Minion.

Strategy
Licorice Cookie is surprisingly a good all-rounder cookie, he has good amount of bursting points in certain situation along with somewhat sustainable recovery energy. The only downside of it is that the skills are technical to be used much like the same thing with Chess Choco Cookie (OvenBreak) who has the all-rounder skill.

His Magic Candy grants him huge burst points (also destroy obstacle) after filled up to max and in each of the interval of him reaping the Spirit will make him shortly invincible, thus use it wisely especially in the area where the obstacle is pretty much the main event of that map. His pet also grants you with lots of jellies and temporary invincibility (excluding hole, much like Dark Spirit Helmet) thus it's recommended to use treasure like Apple Candy Balloon. However, since his sustainability is rather restricted unlike Milk Cookie and much like Chess Choco Cookie although with even more delay, it is preferable to avoid using any treasure that drains his energy even more, like Cursed Goblet for an example.

Overall, Licorice Cookie is a great main Cookie since he has the capability in every area that he wants, although there's a huge delay between the usage of it so player needs to be careful with his technique.

Trivia

 * Licorice Cookie was the first Cookie made for Cookie Run: Kingdom to be ported to Cookie Run: OvenBreak.
 * Licorice Cookie's disliked item, Crimson Sugar Crystal, is a reference to his dislike of Pomegranate Cookie, as the color reminds him of her.
 * As Licorice Cookie's release in OvenBreak was shortly after April Fools Day, most official social media was jokingly "taken over" by him for the day, including changing all emotes to feature him instead of other Cookies in the official Cookie Run Discord server.
