Cookie Clicker: How to get Golden Cookie Combos

Cookie Clicker Strategy Guide. No cheats or mods.
After a while playing Cookie Clicker, you may notice your progress grinds to a halt, even with frequent ascensions. This guide will show you how to get through the slogfest that is the Cookie Clicker late game.
Using this method it is also possible to get over one undecillion cookies and obtain all Heavenly Upgrades in under a week.

[@wonderleif7485]

Nice tutorial! There are only two things I'd like to add 1. You can further optimize this by using garden plants (mainly golden clovers for faster golden cookies, glovemorels for more cookies per click or whiskerbloom for just more cps) 2. Selling more than one building at a time is more efficient you can sell anything up to alchemy labs in late game

[@toyotanice9944]

I would also add that growing bakeberries or queenbeets and stacking a high boost will be really helpfull late game.

[@ZainAhmed456]

He said both these points....

It's actually crazy to me that he went through all this setup to not even stack Godzamok buffs.

elder frenzy can actually last for 14 seconds because of the heavenly upgrade that increases duration by 10% and the secret upgrades that each increase it by 1% (the ones that need a prestige level with 1 seven, 2 sevens, and 4 sevens)

[@MatanY.]

great guide! one of the most informative and clear to understand guides I have ever seen

[@sklorkgd]

If you’re late early game like me (around an octillion (but as long as you have get lucky and wizard tower mini game)) I would recommend going for frenzy + click frenzy + building special. The way I did this was getting the click frenzy from wizard tower and storing it, and once I got a regular frenzy I would save and keep reloading until I got building special during the frenzy, then activate the click frenzy. Hope this helps!

[@twirox1662]

Nice and very informative video, thanks. Also I liked the Ace Attorney investigations OST in the background :D

[@inco-gneito7543]

Also if you get the x7 frenzy or "Lucky!", you can reload and change between Christmas and Easter season to sometimes change the outcome of the force of hand spell. Christmas, Halloween, Business, and No season always produce the same force of hand effects. While Easter and Valentines always produce the same effect. But most of the time, The effects from Christmas, Halloween, Business and No season is different from Easter and Valentines. So I just switch between Easter and Christmas. I hope this makes sense.

[@aflujatenmms5993]

its easter and the love season the ones that change the outcome

Great video! Just one thing to add: Godzamok's buff will increase as you sell more and more buildings, even different building types, so it might be better to sell all of your useless buildings, then when the buff runs out, buy them back and sell them again.

can you still do that? i was refreshing when i got the 7x because i tought i could get a building boots 5000-9000% while the 7x is active

How i do a boost is I get 2 natural golden cookies 1 7x frenzy and 1 building boost have a dragon flight and clicking frenzy and 2 building boosts in grimiore by using sugar lumps you can get 6 golden cookies at a time

[@kingpiggins292]

I have a further improvement to this method, you can actually savescum effect lengths using queenbeet w/ lvl9 farm, epoch manipulator w/ krumblor, and time stretch w/ ineptitude diminish to lengthen 7x cps buff. This only works once every time you reset the timer, and said timer does not reset the length of the buff unless the buff ran out beforehand. It's really only feasible for 7x because the other buffs are ~1min or so in length so you'd have to be really lucky otherwise. The equation y=3((1+0.003*36)*1.1^6*1.05)^x should(?) describe the theoretical length for 7x buff you could reach; y is time (in minutes), x is the amount of times you repeat the savescum method, (1+0.003*36) is the percent increase from queenbeets, 1.1^6 is the percent increase from time stretch magic (exponent actually depends on how many times you can cast it), and 1.05 is the time epoch buff from krumblor. I have not looked into the code of the game, and it is a bit buggy with the krumblor buff. I did in fact have to revise the equation I came up with like 3 times because I read on a forum that the positive garden effects add up additively and not multiplicatively. I'm not confident in the equation but I hope you guys can revise it for me because my brain hurts. The one thing that I'm certain in is that the method I describe works in practice, so something is going on.

[@adonisds]

I didn't understand it. You lengthen the effects but stack less different multipliers?

You do the 21 cost spell to get rid of one of the spells in rotation, wait for the mana to max again, check your hand of faith cookie, if its not a click frenzy do the low mana spell (not gamblers) until you get click frenzy with hand of faith. Be sure to save before checking hand of faith. If you get it. close game, then wait until you get frenzy + building special. Then use hand of fate to get your guaranteed click frenzy >>>> Big profit
