Should you build Almond Cookie in Cookie Run: Kingdom (December 2022)?
Almond Cookie was part of one of the earliest updates in Cookie Run: Kingdom and was a popular Support Cookie, alongside Mint Choco for quite some time. Since then, this Cookie has been relegated within the game's meta due to the release of newer Cookies.
