@krashthegreat: i dont play ovenbreak as of yet so i cant really speak on much of the designs there, but the only cookies that can come across as racial stereotypes that i can think of rn is lilac because he portrays a lot of those middle eastern archetypes through his design i believe, if thats what ur getting at. other then him i cant rlly think of any other cookie that could be racist rn, hope that helps

the game itself (ovenbreak and kingdom) aren't inherently problematic, but devsisters as most companies are kind of is. lilac, yogurt cream, and tiger lily as far as i know have designs that are problematic and racist, lilac and yogurt cream in the way they portray south asian culture from what i've heard and tiger lily being based on native stereotypes. if you arent sure about these considering people go back and forth on whether it's bad or not, maybe listen to those who have problems with it

along with other media by devsisters, such in the comics a cookie is portrayed with the appearance of hitler. there are other things as well though if you look hard enough you could probably find some more stuff.

to be fair it's your choice to play the games. nothing stops you from downloading them, you can enjoy a media like cookie run while acknowledging its problematic. a lot of people will say its just the fandom getting bigger, it is a tiny bit, but devsisters is still problematic.

@honeycomb: tw: racism mention

ive heard ppl say some of the cookie's designs are racist??? i don't play it yet so if you know anything abt that could you please explain? /gen

yess definetly worth it i think, if u just wanna go on auto pilot and not stress over a game while appreciating the character design go for it !! and as for it being problematic, i dont rlly think the game itself is, rather the newer fandom thats forming yk
