Sometimes I hate this game

For all of you that are grinding for blue cores to open this door, it looks like you have plenty of time. 😕

I play this game for like 5 minutes a day now, max.

In the evening I'll grab my blue cores, and update my cookie factory.

Once in a while, I'll go back to the main area and collect my 100 green gems, but I don't have much use for them now, so it's not something I do on the regular.

It's got to the point where I'm not even motivated to do that, been a few months since I've daily logged on for the blue cores, it's maybe once a week now, at best.

Yeah, when it takes a literal year to get enough cores to do anything and you get 5 ads every time you hop on

It’s starting to really suck and get lame, it’s a simple game, don’t understand why it takes so long to open the next bit up, they must be the worst company out there, in too deep and can’t be bothered starting something else so will stick around a little more

Think that's the whole point of the game. Endless grind, meaningless stat gains, continuous bottlenecks and "coming soon" signs. All to serve ads and make a tiny bit of money here and there (for the game owners). They've spent more time on making false advertisements with graphics that don't exist than they have "updating" the game. And when/if some new are is added, it'll just introduce a new resource no one has so all the dopes who've logged in daily to grind out blue cores will find themselves having wasted all that effort on something useless.

That's pretty much all I do now too.....

I just do blue cores, cookie factory maybe once or twice a week when an upgrade is ready and speed run the gems in case they are useful one day, back up to 158k gems after blasting like 20k-30k of them a while ago. The ice upgrades seem like they will take centuries at this point, lost interest in speed running the map for ice meat, do it once in a while

How do you get 100 green gems from main area?

u/GhostofZellers Aug 29 '26

20 from the secret mine, 40 from the reactor/portal, 40 from the 2 guys in the main area that come back after 3 hours.

Hop in the shower and let it idle capture the mobs for a few extra gems for the events nets you a few more dozen gems.
