The shipment is the fourth most expensive upgrade available. It gives 100 cookies every 5 seconds, therefore adding 20 cookies/second.

It initially costs 7,000 cookies and will increase 10% with each consecutive purchase.

Buying the first Shipment will increase Grandma output by +3 Cookies per 5 seconds. It will also cause some grandmas to become alien grandmas with purple skin, three legs, and grey rolling pins.

Trivia

  • The fact that shipments "bring[s] in fresh cookies from the cookie planet" seems to suggest that Cookie Clicker takes place in a universe where planets are made of cookie dough. This is reinforced by mines suggesting the Cookie Clicker planet itself is made of cookies.

References

  • The upgrade "Generation Ship" is a reference to generation ship or generation starship, which is a hypothetical type of interstellar ark starship that travels across great distances between stars at a speed slower than the speed of light as the travel will take generations of human lifespan.
