TIMELINE OF FATE: DRAGONTONGUE SONG EP.5 — DARK-WINGED GUARDIAN

⦁ Check out the new episodes in the Timeline of Fate chapter.

⦁ Ep.5 Dark-Winged Guardian will be released first in this update.

⦁ You can play Ep.5 without clearing previous episodes.

⦁ Ep.6 will be released in the next update.

■ EPISODE EFFECT: PRIMORDIAL RAVENS

⦁ The Primordial Ravens Episode Effect applies starting from "A Feather in the Village" stage.

⦁ At the start of battle, Primordial Ravens, the deathly progeny, summon an ominous fog.

⦁ This fog applies DMG Reduction and Amplified Debuffs to the team, while increasing enemies' Debuff Resist.

⦁ Enemies defeated within the fog inflict Fear and DMG on nearby allies and Revive as Primordial Ravens.

⦁ Ananas Dragon Cookie, blessed with the power of the earthbread, is immune to all effects and damage dealt by Primordial Ravens. Also, the duration of the Healing Prevention they apply is extended.

■ TACTICAL SKILL: WORD OF LIFE

⦁ The Word of Life Tactical Skill becomes available starting from the "Nest of Hallucinations" stage.

⦁ When used, a golden Word of Life echoes across the battlefield. The word deals damage to enemies afflicted by the Void, and suppresses Primordial Raven Revival for the duration.

⦁ If Ananas Dragon Cookie blessed with the power of earthbread is on the team, the power of Dragontongue becomes enhanced, removing the Primordial Raven debuff from allies, and applying DMG Dampening for the duration.

[DRAGON] ANANAS DRAGON COOKIE

From the skies appeared a dragon with noble, golden scales as radiant as the sun. Ananas Dragon Cookie, the monarch of Pineapple Island, has at last arrived in CookieRun: Kingdom!

⦁ Ananas Dragon Cookie is a Magic Cookie who uses the skill "Golden Awakening."

⦁ As the Song of Dragontongue resonates, Ananas Dragon Cookie reclaims their ancient power and transforms into a mighty dragon, granting HP Shields and Golden Dragontongue to the team. Ananas Dragon Cookie unleashes a powerful roar and gains Dragon's Power. Additionally, inflicts Fear on all enemies, applies Ananas Dragon's Rage, and summons a Meteor, dealing damage. Fear from the roar cannot be removed by Purify and is not affected by Debuff Resist. Ananas Dragon Cookie then soars into the sky and crashes down, dealing damage, Knocking enemies back, and sending them Airborne.

Gains Energy of the Earthbread; at max stacks, applies Rock Seal to their target. As the master of the earthbread, Ananas Dragon Cookie is immune to Rock Seal. At the start of battle, if Ananas Dragon Cookie's Beascuit has 2 or more Earth-type DMG Up bonus effects, Dragon's Power is enhanced.

COOKIE PROGRESSION SYSTEM REVAMPED

■ ANANAS DRAGON COOKIE

⦁ Ananas Dragon Cookie will be released as a Dragon rarity Cookie, but will follow the same 6-Star progression system as Timekeeper Cookie, Beast, and Witch Cookies.

■ WIND ARCHER COOKIE

⦁ Wind Archer Cookie's progression will be changed as follows, and the Ascension stage will be removed.

■ BEFORE: ★5 + ★5A grades

■ AFTER: ★6 grades

⦁ Upon reaching ★2, ★4, ★6, the decorations around the Cookie will become more lavish as their Star Grade increases.

⦁ Upon reaching ★3, Wind Archer Cookie's background on the Cookie Detail screen will also become abundant.

⦁ Soulstone Conversion

- The total amount of Soulstones currently owned plus those previously used to promote or ascend Wind Archer Cookie (Soulstones and Soulcores), will be summed up and converted at 120% of the total value.

※ Decimal values will be rounded up.

- If the combined amount of existing Soulstones and Soulcores exceeds x450, each excess unit will be converted into a Legendary Soulstone Choice Chest (9 kinds).

- To decide Wind Archer Cookie's updated grade, the previously achieved grade will be compared against the maximum grade achievable using the amount of converted Soulstones. The final grade will be matched to the lower one of the two.

※ No additional upgrade resources will be required during this process.

⦁ Crystal Jam Ascension Effects

- Following the progression system revamp, Crystal Jam Ascension Effects will be changed as described below.

- After the change:

■ ★1A → ★2

■ ★2A → ★3

■ ★3A → ★4

■ ★4A → ★5

■ ★5A → ★6

GOLDEN HARVEST

Help Custard Cookie III rebuild the kingdom! Harvest goods from the Sea Farm and trigger synergies to obtain Golden Cheeseballs!

⦁ Golden Harvest is a roguelike deck-building mode where you use Cheese Pieces to produce items at the Sea Farm and harvest Golden Cheeseballs through synergies between various types of items.

⦁ Build your product list, select Cookie buffs, and aim to collect as many Golden Cheeseballs as possible.

⦁ Reach the round's Golden Cheeseball goal to advance to the next round.

■ BASIC GAMEPLAY

⦁ Golden Harvest is played over 15 rounds.

⦁ Each round, you can harvest items a set number of times. After harvesting an item, select a new item to add to your product list.

⦁ When you meet the round's Golden Cheeseball goal, that amount of Golden Cheeseballs is consumed, and any remaining Golden Cheeseballs carry over to the next round.

⦁ Clearing all 15 rounds ends the game.

■ SEA FARM AND PRODUCTION LIST

⦁ Place items across the 4x4 space of the Sea Farm.

- Only items with a weight of 1 or higher appear in the product list and the Sea Farm.

- The higher an item's weight, the greater its chance of appearing in the Sea Farm. Items can appear multiple times equal to their weight value.

By selecting certain items, you can increase the weight of a specific category and build a product list that makes your preferred items appear more frequently.

■ SYNERGY SYSTEM

⦁ Items placed in the Sea Farm can activate various synergies.

⦁ The more synergies activated, the easier it is to achieve the round's objective.

⦁ Synergy: earn additional Golden Cheeseballs when items produced in the same building are adjacent.

⦁ Power Synergy: When materials required for production are adjacent to the related goods, earn even more Golden Cheeseballs, while those materials are consumed.

- The more Power Synergies are triggered, the more Golden Cheeseballs you can get.

■ PRODUCT SELECTION AND SKIP

⦁ After harvesting, x3 item options appear. Select one to add to your product list.

⦁ Starting from Round 11, you may skip the selection stage.

⦁ Skipping is useful in the later rounds when you'd rather focus on maximizing synergies with your current product list instead of expanding it further.

■ REROLL TOKENS AND DELETE TOKENS

⦁ Reroll Tokens and Remove Tokens are special items used to adjust your product list.

⦁ Reroll Token: draw 3 new production item options.

⦁ Remove Token: remove an item of your choice from your product list.

⦁ Reroll Tokens and Remove Tokens are each awarded x1 at the start of Rounds 3, 7, 11, and 15.

■ COOKIE BUFFS

⦁ Clear a round to choose one of 3 Cookie buffs.

⦁ Cookie buffs last for the duration of the current game and can have a variety of effects, such as increased item appearance chance, bonus Golden Cheeseballs, synergy bonuses, automatic ingredient replenishment, and item consumption prevention.

⦁ Build your product list around your chosen Cookie buffs to create even more powerful synergies.

■ FINISHING THE GAME

⦁ The game ends when any of the following conditions are met:

- You fail to reach the round's Golden Cheeseball Goal

- You choose to end the game after clearing a round

- You clear Round 15

■ REWARDS & CHEESEBALL COINS

⦁ In Golden Harvest, you receive rewards according to the results of your current game.

⦁ The higher the round you clear, the more cumulative rewards you earn.

⦁ You also earn Cheeseball Coins proportional to the number of Cheese Pieces used during the game.

⦁ Cheeseball Coins can be exchanged for various items at the Golden Harvest shop.

■ PRACTICE MODE AND REGULAR MODE

⦁ In Practice Mode, no rewards can be obtained, but you can play without limits to practice item combinations and synergy builds.

⦁ In Regular Mode, your season record is saved based on the total Golden Cheeseballs collected in a single game.

DUEL OF DESTINY

The Duel of Destiny returns for the battle of the Dragon Cookies against the corrupted Legendary Cookies!

Duel of Destiny is a strategy battle mode where Dragon Cookies clash with the corrupted Legendary Cookies. Win by accepting help from your allies and utilizing Hero's Will to turn the tide in your favor.

■ KEY RULES

■ HOW TO PLAY

1. Recruiting and Excluding Allies

⦁ You will start with 2 random Ally candidates from the list of Season Cookies. You can refresh the selection by using the Shuffle feature.

⦁ You can remove some of the Ally candidates from the list by using the Remove button. However, removing Cookies of certain low rarities is not free, and you will have to spend New Choice Tickets, deducted at the start of the battle.

2. Hero's Will

⦁ Defeat enemies in battle to either recruit Cookies from the Ally Cookies list or choose Hero's Wills offering various effects.

- Auto-Select: you can turn this feature on or off, depending on your playstyle.

⦁ Some fully enhanced Hero's Wills can be evolved to unlock even greater effects.

3. Hero's Will Flame Combos

⦁ Each Hero's Will is granted a Flame in orange, green, blue, or purple.

⦁ Combining the Flames you obtain activates a powerful bonus effect.

⦁ If the slots fill up with new Flames before a combo is complete, the earliest acquired Flame vanishes.

⦁ Combining the flames you obtain triggers powerful bonus effects.

- For orange, green, and blue flames, the combo activates with either three of a kind or one of each color (a 3-color set will activate regardless of the order of obtaining the colors).

- If you obtain a new flame and the slots overflow before a combo is complete, the earliest acquired Flame of Will vanishes.

⦁ The purple Flame of Will works as a wild card, standing in for any color to finish a set.

- Each time you obtain a flame, a candle on the Awakening Candelabrum in the lower-right of the screen flickers to life.

- When all three candles are lit, you can activate a powerful tactical skill.

4. New Choice tickets

⦁ If you don't like certain Allies or Flames, you can use a New Choice Ticket to refresh the list.

⦁ These effects will last for the current season and will reset along with your Gems of Will when the season ends.

■ RANKING & REWARDS

⦁ Rankings are calculated based on earned points and clear time, and rewards are sent to your in-game mailbox once the season ends.
