Cookie Run Tower of Adventures Halfiversary update

Devsisters Corporation has released a Cookie Run Tower of Adventures Halfiversary update preview on the title's official YouTube channel. Per the official YouTube video, the game will introduce a new Cookie, a themed location, and plenty of other events and rewards.


Cookie Run Tower of Adventures Halfiversary update: Rewards

The adventurers will get tons of Halfiversary rewards. The developer promised to give out 100 Cookie Tickets and 100 Artifact Tokens to players as login rewards. These are daily login rewards. They will get 10 of these tokens daily, starting from the day of the update, which means a total of 200 gacha pulls.

However, you don't need to pull 20 times every day. In the video, the developer states that you can gather the pulls and use them all at once. However, note that these pulls will only be available until February 5, 2025.

You can collect Happiness Orbs by completing daily and seasonal missions, and then trade them at the in-game store for rewards like Cabin Designs, two new Stamps, and a Cookie Profile Image. However, these orbs are best used to read the letters received during the Halfiversary update.

Cookie Run Tower of Adventures Halfiversary update: New story mode

After bidding farewell to the Jalapeno and Basil Pesto Cookie, GingerBrave and the gang have arrived in the Snow Bear Village. Here, they see that the whole village is caked in snow and all the residents are bears sleeping inside their houses.

While the adventurers were wondering what may have gone wrong in the village, a group of Yetis attacked them. At this moment, adventurers meet the Ice Mint Cookie (the new Cookie gracing this update) from the Ice Penguin Village nearby, who arrives to rescue and befriend them.

The Ice Mint Cookie describes how the winter is not going away and the residents of the Snow Bear Village are in perpetual hibernation.

The developer invites adventurers in the Snow Bear Village (the new themed location in the story mode) to figure out what happened. However, you must be cautious as many monsters and fun gimmicks lurk in the new location. The developer also discusses how you can roll snowballs in the new mode, and that these will grow in size as you roll them. Once big enough, it can demolish obstructions on your path.

You can also become a Snowman by getting close enough to the Ice Sprays. There are certain things that only the Snowman can do. You can return to your Cookie form or brush off the snow by continuously tapping on the Snowman button. Alternatively, you can stand near warm stones to melt the snow.

There are also new monsters made of ice like the Ice Sugar Cubes. These monsters slide further away when you attack them.


Cookie Run Tower of Adventures Halfiversary update: New Boss

The Cookie Run Tower of Adventures Halfiversary update brings a new boss monster. The leader of the Snowy Mountains, Yeti Rimehorn will arrive during the final battle at the Snow Bear Village.

Rimehorn in Cookie Run Tower of Adventures wields giant ice cubes in both his hands and does spinning attacks. It also throws giant snowballs towards the players. These snowballs create piles of snow after colliding with a player or the walls.


Cookie Run Tower of Adventures Halfiversary update: New Cookie

The Ice Mint Cookie glides through the field on his snowboard and attacks his enemies. This water-type smash fighter Cookie has two stances. The first is a slow but powerful Runner Mode, and the second is the Rider Mode which provides increased mobility and enhanced attacks.

You can switch between these modes during battles. The basic attack and special skills differ depending on your stance.
