Trivia[]

  • Starting from this building and onwards, there is a trend of the base building costs skyrocketing. Javascript consoles are 229 times as expensive as fractal engines.
  • The Javascript console model has the Japanese katakana characters "クッキークリッカー ジャバスクリプト" (Kukkii Kurikkaa Jabasukuriputo) which translates to "Cookie Clicker JavaScript".
    • Before version 2.028, the Javascript console model was miswritten as "クツキークリツカー ジャバスクリプト" (Kutsukii Kuritsukaa Jabasukuriputo).
    • The model is split into two different building models that appear separately: one for "Cookie Clicker" and one for "JavaScript".
  • This is the second building to have a completely different store icon compared to its appearance in the buildings overview, after the time machine.
  • Unlike all other buildings, the javascript console's grandma appearance is dependent on the Script grannies synergy upgrade, rather than the Binary grandmas type upgrade.
