Varying grandma types implemented in version 0.123

Since the 0.123 update, grandmas now have varying appearances based off the other upgrades.




Cookie Output

Initially, grandma output is 4 cookies every five seconds. By buying each upgrade, this number will increase.

  • Buying a factory increases grandma output by +1.
  • A mine increases grandma output by +2.
  • A shipment increases output by +3.
  • An alchemy lab increases output by +4.
  • A portal increases output by +5.
  • A time machine increases output by +6.

Multiple copies of these items have no effect on Grandma cookie output. This allows a maximum output of 25 cookies per 5 seconds per grandma without Elder Pledge in effect.

As of the 0.124 update, when the Elder Pledge is purchased, Grandma output increases by +1 for the first portal purchase, and by +0.5 for every subsequent Portal purchased. This is added on to the previous Grandma value making each grandma give up to [26 + (Portals-1)/2] Cookies/5 seconds with every upgrade.

Professional strategies

Many builds involve the granny being a major player, and some builds even involve swarms of gold grannies making cookies.

One particular strategy involves ignoring all other upgrades in favour of building as many Grandmas as possible, with only 1 alchemy lab to increase Grandma efficiency. This tactic is useful in mid-game, however quickly means that Grandmas become prohibitively expensive, so should be avoided by all but the best players.

Background changes during Grandmapocalypse

The initial, plain background of the game starts to change to images of grandma as you collect more cookies.

After accumulating 1,000,000 cookies, the plain background is replaced with repeated, shaking pictures of her. The background begins to shake more violently as you get more cookies.

After accumulating 2,000,000 cookies, the normal Grandma background rapidly flashes into pictures of the Satanic Grandma, Negative Grandma, and Skeletal Grandma. At this point, epileptic people and those faint of heart should turn the flashing off in the game settings.

As you obtain infinitely larger amounts of cookies, the pictures will begin to shake more and more. At 100,000,000 cookies, the pictures will begin to shift more and change size. This will get more drastic and violent as the cookie counter approaches 1,000,000,000 cookies. The pictures become up to 5 or so times larger.

After accumulating 1,000,000,000 cookies, Kaleidoscope Grandma will overtake the screen, obscuring all the previous Grandmas.
