Nifty little game with the vibes of balatro, cloverpit, and some inscryption aethetics. For the price I got almost 50 hours of fun finishing everything, and it's the kind of game where if you don't have more than 30 minutes free a day, you can knock out a run in around that long to unwind for a bit.
これっくらいの おべんとばっこに ピクルス ピクルス ピクルス ピクルス ピクルス ピクルス ピクルス ピクルス ちょいとつめて オラァ食えっ!!!!! ホラー要素はオマケレベルです(時々自称シェフさんがひょっこりはんする程度)
This game is truly addicting and honest fun, the base game revolves around "Cloverpit" mechanics, but throws in its own satisfying gameplay loop. Along with tons of unique items to collect and Easter eggs to find, you can really sink loads of time into this. I'd give it a shot.
even though the game has multiple dificulties, it doesnt get more dificult, just more anoying and more restricting. olives are strong on 1 and 2 star dificulties, but in 3 and 4 star they are baisically requiered, as the dificulty modifires make all other foods unreliable and almost impossible to get a full bento(and non full ones reqire one specific tool to be close to usable) i had a lot of fun in the demo, but with the full game i just cant justify playing it for a long time. most runs you either horrible lack scaling for the score, or over shoot by a ton, there isnt really an inbetween. and a lot of legendary tools/chefs dishes are lacking, when they are supposed to be extreamly rare. if you are looking to kill a few hours, this is it, but anything more i cant see it.
C'est dommage que le jeu soit condamné à être toujours dans l'ombre de CloverPit parce que je le trouve tellement mieux. Je le trouve très accessible, même si l'aléatoire a énormément de poids, on peut quand même facilement préparer une stratégie. Ce que je trouve un peu dommage aussi, c'est qu'il n'y ait pas assez de nourriture différente, ou de variation dans leur forme, on finit par souvent faire le même bento. Le jeu est clairement une copie (même DA, même structure) mais si vous arrivez à passer outre ça, vous pouvez passer un bon moment
This game is incredibly cool and criminally underseen. I know it sits in the vein of other games like it, but the roguelike elements, mystery, and different challenges here are very cool and gives you tons to play with. High recommend from me.
It's a pretty chill game, until you get the timer added and then it's very not chill. It's easy to pick up to play a run. [spoiler] Almost launched out of my chair when messing with the bells and he popped out the vent O_O [/spoiler]
【プレイ時間】3時間程度 【YouTube配信アーカイブ】 https://youtube.com/live/yb1HOeZB0-Y?feature=share 【難易度】★★★★☆ 【オススメ度】★★★★★ ホラゲー×食べ物系×パスルゲー 異色の組み合わせが しっかり世界観を作るスルメゲー 主な特徴 ・主人公は厨房?に閉じ込められ脱出したい ・現場にいる料理長に料理を提供し続ける ・パズル要素を駆使してお弁当?を作る ・バフアイテムを駆使して高スコアを獲得できる ・厨房には色々な秘密が隠されている ・初期アイテムの選択で難易度が変更できる チュートリアル的な要素が少なく 最初は大丈夫かな?と思いましたが やっていくうちに段々と攻略法がクリアになっていき カードゲームのコンボ効果を発動させる様な感覚で ゲームを進める事が出来ました! 今回は一番簡単な難易度クリアまで到達できました。 高難易度は周回プレイをして アイテム解放だったり、バフアイテムなどのかみ合いも かなり絡んでくると思いますので 低価格で長く楽しく遊べるゲームとしておススメです 今後のアップデートも楽しみな作品なので 今のうちに遊んで見てはいかがでしょうか。
Pretty decent. I always get a chuckle out of the Fr*nch eldritch abomination insulting my cooking.
O jogo é simples mas tem uma mecânica que você consegue jogar de várias formas diferentes (focando em fazer combinação gigante por ponto ou minimalista tentando grindar dinheiro) além de ter um mistério durante todo o jogo parabains pro dev
