Sharing the Cookie in Common Rooms

You can also share this wisdom with others in common rooms or Multiverse parties. To do so, simply select the “Give A Fortune” option, then wait for three users to click on the cookie that will be dropped into the room. When it’s been clicked by three different people, those people will get to read the fortune!

Did you know? Fortune cookies originated in America—not China.
