Cookie Clicker

Here players need to make the world's most popular cookies, and sell cookies throughout the universe. The gameplay of the game is very simple, the player only needs to keep clicking on the cookie on the screen. Make more delicious cookies by recruiting staff, regardless of upgrading your technology, design hundreds of different flavors of cookies. To help you make cookies, you'll recruit a variety of helpful cookie makers, such as friendly grannies, farms, factories, and various otherworldly ports. Players can use cookies to upgrade various buildings and grannies, so you can recruit more people to make cookies for you, and as you progress, you can unlock more and more buildings and props. At a later stage, you can even use cookies to ascend.

Cookie Clicker guide

Throughout the guide, all ascensions will include the following stats:

Heavenly chips - how many heavenly chips are needed to purchase all recommended upgrades for this ascension

Prestige level - the needed prestige level, until and including, this ascension

Cookies baked all time needed - how many cookies baked all time is required to reach the needed heavenly chips and prestige level

Total upgrades - how many prestige upgrades should have been bought, until and including, this ascension

Note that these are ascension minimums, and may be overshot with golden cookie combos. This will not result in slower progress, as long as the upgrades from two or more consecutive ascensions, or at least the most important upgrades, are bought in one ascension.

This guide assumes a somewhat active playstyle, where golden cookie effects are the primary method of gaining cookies. However, this guide acknowledges idle playstyles as well. The costs for the extra upgrades are not factored into the heavenly chip gain.

The upgrades in each ascension are listed from most to least important, with upgrades required to get an important upgrade in the Prerequisites column.
