The Cookie Project

About

The Cookie Project is a visual novel where you manage a cozy bakery in a frosty version of Destiny 2's Last City. As the holiday rush unfolds, a Guardian named Cepheus stumbles into your shop carrying a weird baking gadget and a request for help. His awkward charm and mysterious past drive a story full of dialogue choices that shape a relationship leaning toward friendship or romance. Gameplay revolves around casual interactions, light puzzles, and managing bakery tasks while balancing Cepheus's cryptic errands. The game leans heavily into Destiny lore but softens its edges for newcomers. Fans appreciate how it translates the franchise's tone into a low-stakes, slice-of-life format. With a runtime of around four hours, it’s a quick, lighthearted pick-up that doesn’t demand prior knowledge. Players on forums note the art style and character design as standout features, though the story takes priority over combat or action.
