The Cookie Run franchise has been around for a while now, with Cookie Run: Kingdom being the latest installment.

As a live service game, Cookie Run: Kingdom is constantly evolving, with its developer, Devsisters, steadily releasing new content like events, new cookies, minigames, and more. While some of these additions have been appreciated by players, they have also been very critical of the game’s new content—and they have a lot to say about the latest event.

Cookie Run: Kingdom Players Are Split on the Secret Garden Event

Cookie Run: Kingdom players are split on the recent Secret Garden event, with the community debating its good and bad aspects.

A player known as Expensive_Bet729 took to Reddit to complain about the Tiger Lily Cookie's Berry Jump event, saying the minigame feels clunky. The player argued that, even though the concept of the minigame isn’t new, Devsisters delivered a “poorly designed” experience—partly because it doesn’t allow players to control when Butter Tiger jumps. The developer has introduced very popular events to Cookie Run: Kingdom in the past, and that’s one of the reasons why players feel let down by this one.

Many players chimed in and echoed a similar sentiment. One player pointed out that, for them, the worst part is when the tiger suddenly speeds up, as it can cause players to fall or make mistakes. They also noted that the default controls are not good and that the minigame’s physics feel “a little odd.” Many players also complained about the event’s shop being too expensive, saying that Pavlova Cookie’s Card minigame in Cookie Run: Kingdom felt fairer than this new one.

The Tiger Lily Cookie's Berry Jump event invites players to collect blueberries by playing the minigame and then exchange them for rewards such as Crystals and Rainbow Cubes. In order to participate, players must reach platform 300 and upload a screenshot—along with their kingdom and server name—in the comments of the Cookie Run: Kingdom event announcement Twitter post between June 10 and June 16.

Recently, many players also voiced their frustration with the game once again—this time regarding Cookie Run: Kingdom's May Lucky Bingo, which they perceive as a bad pay-to-win tactic. It’s unclear whether Devsisters will listen to players’ concerns and take this feedback into account for future updates.
