In Cookie Clicker, you can see a wrinkler’s cookie count by buying the heavenly upgrade Eye of the Wrinkler for 100 million heavenly chips; after that, hovering over a wrinkler shows how many cookies it has eaten.

How it works

  • Without that upgrade, the game does not normally display the exact amount on hover.
  • With the upgrade, the hover tooltip shows the eaten cookie total, so you can decide when to pop it.
  • If you just want the total wrinklers popped count, check Stats → Special.

Extra note

The amount a wrinkler returns when popped is higher than what it ate, because it gives back the stored cookies with a bonus.
