It's Blitzen’s favorite reindeer game! Top the reindeer leaderboard by chomping as many cookies as you can in 60 seconds -- just match the color OR the shape of the prior cookie. Every batch has at least one perfect solution that will clear ALL of the cookies and advance you to the next level, where cookies are worth more points. Sprinkled and Decorated cookies have bonuses. Cookies with Sprinkles increase the point value of all FUTURE cookies, by incrementing the score multiplier (x2, x3, x4, etc). Cookies with piped Decorations give you extra time on the clock (usually +0:10 seconds). Finally, Grandma’s sugar cookies are wild – these plain, round, buttery, sweet cookies will match ANYTHING, regardless of color or shape. Can you beat Blitzen and all the other reindeer at their own game? Try Christmas Cookie Chomp today!
