Welcome to Cookie Run Wiki's monthly newsletter, The CookieRunner! The CookieRunner is dedicated to giving out important updates on the game, as well as tips for the game, both in LINE and in Kakao. Yes, this newsletter will talk about Kakao stuff as well. But Kakao stuff will be limited to this newsletter, and nothing will be spread to the articles unless it's very important.

This newsletter will also be selecting fan art that we think is amazing and worthy enough to be featured here. Do you have any amazing fan art that we would like to see? Please comment down below! We would love to hear your suggestions.

 * By T And J Kids.



For 85 days we waited, and 85 days we had anticipated this season. Now, after 85 days, it is here. Devsisters proudly presents the seventh season of LINE Cookie Run, under the name of Wrath of the Dragon! This season mainly focuses on balancing the Cookies, Pets, and Treasures and updating the layout of each episode. It also brings the Cookie Run story forward: the dragon has awaken and the Cookies have to fight it before they can advance to their freedom. It also sets free the Sea Fairy Cookie, the mysterious figure previously known only to be a mysterious person.

What's New?
This has been mentioned in our previous CookieRunner May 2016 issue, but this time it's more detailed, since everything is in English now.

'''League Ranking! ''' Yes, it's different from the old Medal System we used to have, but what does the league do exactly? Well, it is a feature that lets you compete with other players worldwide. Unlike the previous medal system, this feature lets you see other players' scores within fifteen different rankings. To benefit from this and earn yourself some medals, you can earn medals based on your rank class and the ranking you are in within each class. The higher the rank class, the more medals you get. This is the same with the class ranking, but with smaller rewards.

Take note that your league depends on your previous results, so that means if you score 2M in a game and end up in a high class, you have just played only once. Further scores will make your class go down.

Any Differences Between This and the Korean Version?
There are not many differences between the Kakao and LINE version, but there are some that might be interesting.

Getting the Crystals for the New Season  The most exciting difference of all is free Crystals! In the Kakao version, you were asked to type in a coupon code to get 200. In the LINE version, everyone gets 100 for free! Yes, once you've gone into the game, you'll get this snazzy reward to celebrate the new season. If you had preregistered for the new season, it's a bonus: with the 100 and the  5 in place, you'll have  200 and  5, or  335 in terms of value.

A Reeeally Long Maintenance  From 9am June 27 to 5pm June 28 (GMT+9), Cookie Run underwent a very long maintenance to help prepare for the new season. While we had witnessed in the Kakao version that it took 13 hours for maintenance, it took a record-breaking 30 hours of maintenance in the LINE version. We did not know what was the exact cause of this long wait, but it made some people mad.

Devsisters has even created the hashtag "#WrathoftheMaintenanceNotice" to prove us how evil the maintenance notice really is. What did the Cookies do during that time?

They Changed It to An S!  Do you remember White Gold Drop? It was introduced back in September as a Package Deal-exclusive Pet along with Lime Cookie. In its early days, it was considered an E-grade Pet, later joined with Bean Drop Duo. This was the only thing exclusive to LINE at that moment. Now, it is changed to an S-grade Pet like in the Kakao version, and is placed next to Mr. Limeguard because of release dates.
