For over 16 years, the Cookie Run franchise has been the sugary comfort food of mobile gaming. With 200 million players worldwide and presence in 243 countries, it’s more than a game — it’s a cultural phenomenon.
Back in 2009, when CookieRun: OvenBreak launched in Korea, nobody could’ve guessed that those tiny gingerbread characters would one day build an entire universe of games, merch, and animations.
By 2022, the Cookie Run IP had already surpassed 200M lifetime players. And now, Devsisters is making its boldest move yet: a fully 3D ARPG built to conquer the Chinese market — CookieRun: Kingdom.
According to FoxData- App Intelligence, CookieRun: Tower of Adventures (launched in 2024) surpassed 1M+ downloads on day one globally — a clear sign of the franchise’s enduring appeal.

Unlike Tower of Adventures, which focused on stage progression, Kingdom leans into co-op and team-based mechanics, tapping into China’s appetite for multiplayer depth.
In today’s oversaturated ARPG market, flashy graphics alone won’t cut it. Devsisters introduces what it calls “Edible Aesthetics” — an immersive design where visuals directly influence gameplay:
🍫 Chocolate shards transform into real obstacles in boss fights.
🍭 Cotton candy mountains shape carnival-zone exploration.
❄️ Snowball puzzles unlock icy secret paths.
This isn’t just sugar-coating — it’s visual creativity with mechanical depth.

Review Management Tool reveals that the game is especially popular with younger players, mainly 18–24 (35%) and 13–17 (25%), with 60% female users.
About 35% of reviews are positive, praising its fun gameplay, great graphics, strong voice acting, engaging storyline, and customization options that keep players hooked. Overall, it delivers both depth and visual appeal, though many still ask for bug fixes and smoother performance to fully enjoy the experience.

Either way, this launch will be a case study in IP evolution — and a must-watch for marketers, developers, and players alike.
