Cookie Wars now: everything that's in the game

The game in one minute

Cookie Wars is a 1v1 bluff game. Each player hides 3 bombs on their own 3×3 board, and once the match starts the bombs can't be moved. A dice roll decides who goes first (a tie means you roll again), then you take turns opening one cell on your rival's board. An empty cell is a cookie, a bomb counts against you.

Whoever opens three bombs first loses, and the other player wins. You have 60 seconds for every move — let the timer run out and you lose the match.

Where to play

• In the browser at cookiewrs.com — on a phone or a computer, nothing to install. Sign in with email or Google; login codes come from hello@cookiewrs.com.
• Inside Telegram — through the game bot @cookiewrs_bot.
• On a computer the game opens in a full desktop layout, and on a phone it now also works in landscape: every screen, every window and the poker table. If you start with the phone sideways, a small hint at the bottom shows how to turn it.

Free ways to play

• Demo PVP — the button on the home screen. A practice match for 0 cookies: we look for a real opponent first, and if nobody shows up within 3 minutes a bot sits down. No prize, just a warm-up.
• Demo mode — tap your balance and switch to demo to get 500 demo cookies. PvP and poker are open there, against real players and bots. Demo cookies can't be withdrawn, and demo gives no XP or ranking points.
• Box Game — an exclusive match you enter with an access code. Codes appear in our Telegram chat, and the bot sometimes sends them in private messages to people who chat there. A win gives a mystery box with XP.
• A free game ticket — when 5 people open the game through your link within a day, you get a 1¢ game against a bot with the stake paid by the game. Win, and 1.8¢ goes to your real balance.

Free games in our Telegram chat

Our chat @cookiew_chat has its own games, run by the CRUMB bot. They're open to everyone who has been in the chat for 3 days or more — and you can catch a reward even before you sign up: it waits for you in the game after the tutorial.

• Cookie Rain — once a day cookies and XP fall from the sky. Tap “Grab” within 60 seconds, and the pool is split equally between everyone who made it.
• Cookie or Bomb? — several rounds a day: a board of 12 cells hides 2 cookies, the rest are bombs. Pick one cell, one try per person. Find a cookie and you win a free game — and if you win that game, the winnings go to your real balance.
• Progress cards — type /share and CRUMB posts your card: hero, level, wins. Sharing it gives +20 XP once a day.

1v1 PvP: the main mode

You against one player, both put in the same number of cookies — from 0.01 to 10,000. Create a table with your stake or join an open one. The winner takes the pot minus the commission: 20% of the loser's stake only, the winner's stake is never touched.

In matches for real cookies you only meet real people: bots play only in demo, Demo PVP, Box Game and gift games from a ticket or a promo code — and in those cases the game says so.

Duels: play the rival you choose

A duel is a match against a specific player. You set the stake, the length of the series — first to 1 up to first to 9 wins — and the start time. When the rival accepts, the stake is frozen on both balances until the series is over, and matches go back to back until someone reaches the agreed number of wins. Duels count toward the league ranking just like PvP.

Poker: now open to everyone

Texas hold'em for cookies. Sit down with a buy-in, play hands against real players and stand up whenever you like — your remaining chips go back to your balance. Tables have 2 or 6 seats, and the table level sets the blinds and how much you can bring:

• 15 seconds per move, plus a 30-second time bank for your whole stay at the table.
• Step away while others wait, and your seat is held for 2 minutes — hands go on without you and without your blinds. Miss 3 hands in a row and the seat is freed, with your chips back on your balance.
• Commission is 5% of the hand's pot, capped at 2 big blinds heads-up, 3 with 3–4 players and 4 with 5–6. If a hand ends before the flop, there's no commission at all.
• Want to play a friend? The “Challenge” button in the poker lobby invites them to a two-seat table.
• The tables are full of our heroes — including new characters drawn specially for poker.

Every hand can be checked. Before a hand the table shows a fingerprint (SHA-256) of the server's secret seed, your phone adds its own random seed, and the deck is shuffled from both. After the hand the seed is revealed and the game checks that the fingerprint matches and the cards are the same. Tap the “Deck verified” badge to see the explanation and your hands from the last 30 days — with the formulas to check them yourself.

Heroes, levels and rare cookies

• 17 heroes in the shop — basic, rare, epic and elite. New ones unlock as your account level grows, and some levels give you a hero discount.
• Every bought hero evolves through 5 stages for XP from your shared pool (120, 300, 600 and 1,000 XP). Each stage changes the look and raises the chance of rare cookies.
• Rare cookies — silver and gold — are an extra drop in paid matches. Your chance depends on the hero, its stage and your account levels; gold starts from the hero's second stage. They're paid from a separate prize fund, so they're never guaranteed.
• 15 account levels: each needs XP, games played and betting volume, and pays out cookies, unlocks heroes and adds to your rare-cookie chance.

Rewards for coming back

• Daily rewards run in a 6-day cycle: XP for logging in (20 to 200 XP) and a cookie reward from 0.05 to 1 cookie, with a mystery box on day 6. The cookie part needs a few games; the streak only breaks after 48 hours away.
• Quests: 72 game goals in two lines, worth up to 11 cookies and 4,260 XP together. The chain refreshes once a day.
• Tasks and videos: simple actions for 10–60 XP, partner tasks for up to 0.01 🍪 each, and short videos for 10 XP (up to 50 XP every 6 hours).
• Your progress card can also be shared from the game: Profile → “Share progress in the chat”.

Leagues and the top 10

Players are ranked in four leagues — Crumb, Cookie, Gold and Legend. Your score is wins plus betting volume, 1 to 1; PvP with a stake and duels count, demo and free games don't. At the end of each period the top 10 of every league get rewards: places 1–3 get cookies, 4–7 a league box, 8–10 XP — if they reached their league's thresholds (from 10 wins and 10 cookies of volume in Crumb up to 450 wins and 1,000 in Legend).

CRUMB, the helper

Stuck on a rule? Tap the question mark at the top of the screen and ask CRUMB — type it or send a voice message, 5 questions a day. In our chat @cookiew_chat CRUMB answers when you call him by name. His answers come from the game guide. CRUMB never asks for a password, a seed phrase or a payment.

Wallet: deposits and withdrawals

The balance is in cookies, 1 cookie = $1. Top up with GRAM (ex. TON) or USDT on the TON network from 0.1, USDT on BEP20 or Solana from 5, USDT on TRC20 from 10, or with Telegram Stars (Stars deposits are locked from withdrawal for 30 days). Always send on the network you picked in the wallet.

Withdrawals go in GRAM (from $1) or USDT on BEP20 and Solana (from $5) or TRC20 (from $10), with a 5% fee. They open once your deposits reach $1 in total and you've played at least 0.5 🍪 in stakes (PvP and duels, not counting demo or cancelled matches) — the Withdraw tab shows both conditions with your progress — and after our anti-fraud checks. The company reserves the right to refuse a withdrawal after these checks.
