The number beside the 'Legacy' button shows how many Heavenly Chips and Prestige Levels you will earn upon ascending. Prestige leveling follows a specific cubic pattern, with having Prestige Level 1 needing 1 trillion cookies baked all time (1³ x 1 trillion), Prestige Level 2 needing 8 trillion (2³ x 1 trillion) and so on because of this, going from level 1 to level 2 would require (2³ - 1³) x 1 trillion = an additional 7 trillion cookies. Each Prestige Level provides a permanent +1% CpS, although the power of your Prestige must first be unlocked in each playthrough by purchasing certain upgrades. Heavenly Chips are used in the Ascension screen to purchase Heavenly Upgrades, which are permanent throughout ascensions and provide various benefits. If you reach a certain number of cookies, you can ascend and reset your progress in the main game.ĭepending on how many cookies you have baked, you will earn Heavenly Chips and Prestige Levels when ascending (at a 1:1 ratio).
The ascension screen is accessed by the Legacy button, which is under the Info button.
