About
Magical Delicacy is a combat-free Metroidvania-lite with a complex cooking system. Set foot in Grat and get lost while platforming through this twisted town - find and explore open pathways or fulfill the complex orders of the townsfolk to progress and unlock new kitchen tools.
Platforming and exploration lie at the heart of Magical Delicacy and are required to collect ingredients and progress within the game. Toggle the Easy Platforming mode in the settings if you want a more comfortable platforming experience or have trouble with challenging passages.
Play the young witch Flora and discover a bustling town in this Metroidvania-inspired wholesome cooking game. Cook meals and potions in your customized kitchen by carefully selecting the right ingredients. Navigate the town in casual platforming to meet the townsfolk, take up their orders, and learn about this world of magic.
Flora travels to a distant town to fulfill her dream of becoming a proper witch. She opens up shop in Grat, a harbor town built upon cliffs, where adventurers settled to chart an unexplored island full of mystery. As she engages in the town’s thriving economy, she stumbles upon two members of opposing covens. The witch Cassia and the magus Tauno have a lot to teach Flora, but they also know how to use her in their dispute about magical beings.
Visit a beautiful harbor town, a densely packed space with people to meet, history to discover, and many opportunities to improve your business. Shop at merchants to buy various keepsakes and upgrades. Accept dozens of orders from the townsfolk asking for your magical food. Meet mysterious travelers, shop owners, forgotten legends, and masters of their crafts, some of which might only appear during day or night. Unravel long-forgotten secrets of the island and its mystical creatures.
Cooking delicious meals for your customers requires the correct ingredients. Gather ingredients directly within the nooks and crannies of the town, while some other ingredients can only be bought from merchants. Run out of an ingredient while cooking? Don’t worry - merchants will restock their shops, and forgeable ingredients eventually grow back with a little patience. Upgrade your kitchen to stash a collection of ingredients ready for cooking and experimentation or sell them to merchants for Beads, your precious currency for trading.
Use your acquired ingredients to create magical dishes. Different attributes require you to think about your ingredient selection. Figure out and learn how flavors mix and how to meet customers‘ odd and complex requests for food. Closely follow recipes or experiment with your own creations, then sell or deliver your potions, meals, teas, and pastries to friends and customers. Be it local cuisine or Flora’s hometown recipes, everything to satisfy the tastebuds of different folks, from the croaking Gaball to the feline Tilin.
Start with basic equipment and acquire new kitchen tools. Unlock more rooms to arrange and customize your tools to your liking and maximize efficiency when cooking. Put your unused creations up for sale, sort your ingredients into storage, and grow some plants in the backyard. It would be the perfect place to call your own if it wasn’t for this unwanted roommate and a lingering capitalist dread.

Navigate the town during your deliveries, climb bell towers and old ramparts, or delve through challenging old catacombs. Grow as a witch and acquire upgrades to your movement abilities to discover new routes and hard-to-reach places or open shortcuts that lead back to your store. Uncover and learn the twisted pathways on the map and remember the whereabouts of the townsfolk. Inspired by the Metroidvania genre and condensed into a cozy cooking game.

its really fun, the exploration is great. the puzzle for figuring out orders is satisfying. great art. really good.
While in a lot of ways I like this game (the art style is gorgeous, the dialogue is witty and funny, it feels like the quests are unique and you aren’t just doing the same thing over and over again), the map and movement style have kept me from finishing it for more than a year and a half. At this point, I have to just accept that I don't like it enough for the positives to outway the negatives. The map style is convoluted and really inaccessible for me, a perfectly able person so I can't even imagine what it would be like for a vision impaired or neuro divergent person. The movement thing is more just personal preference, I find the need to jump gaps everywhere and fall and start again super frustrating. I don't mind doing it once but I wish they'd implement like a lever mechanic like some side strollers where if you do the obstacle once a bridge or stairs appear. I'm not trying to get this frustrated in a cute, witchy cooking game.
Magical Delicacy is a short and sweet metroidvania style cozy cooking game. It's very unique for it's kind and the town of Grat is lovely and immersive to explore. The music was also great, certain tracks really stand out. The game never puts any pressure on you and I loved it the whole way through and didnt want it to end. My only complaint is that I wish there were different sprites for each dish in the game. 9/10 :)
Magical Delicacy was such a cozy and relaxing game to play. It has elements of a metroidvania style game that does a good job rewarding you for exploring and cooking for the people of the town. The story is told as you cook for the different towns people and friends that you meet along the way. As you play, you get to talk with other people in the town that make the world feel bigger and alive. There is no pressure with what you need to cook and the puzzles are not overly challenging, but do make you think. It's very rewarding to explore and find more ingredients and unlock new abilities. I loved this game.
A cozy and wonderful game with a great story, charming characters, and beautiful art. The difficulty feels just right, and it quickly became one of the best games I’ve ever played. Highly recommended!
Jogo bom pra relaxar, se tenho uma crítica é que o final deixa a desejar, fica aquela sensação de "é isso?", mas no geral foi uma boa experiência.
why am i living with a leech named Hina? the beginning made me cringe too hard to continue this game lol fr like why is Hina asking me to cook stew for her when she should gtfo of my house, like why u leeching off me calling me ur roommate
第一第二个成就解锁时间在25年,第三个成就解锁在26年,首发买了玩了个开头就放了一年多,不知道为什么最近突然想起来,一打开就停不下来了,上头到直到通关。 太!好!玩!了!完全是我的菜! 我还记得首发的时候一上线就被很多人诟病,说跳跳乐很繁琐根本不是传统经营烹饪游戏,挺多人都不看好的,但我犹豫过后还是买了,只能说游戏真是甲之蜜糖乙之砒霜,所有游戏设计都在我的爱好上,完全美味的小甜品,好玩爱玩。 跳跳乐和跑图应该是这游戏最大缺点了,劝退蛮多人的,我个人比较喜欢银河恶魔城所以无所谓,手残打开辅助开关可以省掉很多麻烦,没必要为了不必要的肝度设计去为难自己,纯休闲挺好的,如果开了辅助还是觉得难玩不下去可能真的不是你的菜了,那就不用折磨自己了。 跑图前期属实折磨,很容易不知道去哪去干什么,爱自己跑图到处探险收集东西的人会觉得极其有趣,各种平台各种隐藏空间拿稀有收集品的爽感真是冲上天灵盖。就是前期没传送会吃力点,后期开传送了会舒服很多,但也没舒服到哪里去,因为地图很崎岖,各种悬崖峭壁以及探索洞穴的时候你是看不见脚下有没有平台的,需要自己去试错,这点确实做得不好,不过流程不繁琐还行。开了传送和乌鸦以及按b随地回城之后再去找隐藏会没那么吃力,各种道具一定要提前买,不然后期了都用不上了,重要道具也很多,方便全收集做成就。 前期玩的时候会感觉卡关,这也去不了那也去不了,记得勤用标记标记地图,这样就不会忘记哪里应该用什么道具了。如果卡了不要慌张, 一定要跟着主线走,每天采集食材之后能做订单就做,做不了就放着,时候到了自然就解锁食材和器具了,不用着急。剧情转折点是在河边一个谜语地,需要做雾之药剂和余烬酿,做完往右跑接下来通主线就跟喝水一样顺畅,顺理成章就解锁传送拿到变身和飞天扫帚技能了,从此跑图不用愁,记得多做几瓶枯萎药剂!有好几个藤蔓要清除,清掉才能探图。 隐藏地点多翻翻,做完主线再收集也是可以的,反正后期有提示小道具,哪里有隐藏都会提醒你。比较难收集的应该是服装,需要用飞天扫帚多飞飞各种大裂谷,看到黑色悬崖边边就变猫猫钻钻,一定会发现各种隐藏道具的。我每次往下一跳或者一飞进入一个隐藏空间就给我爽到,地图永远在解锁,区域和路永远有联系,很爽很爽,新鲜感十足,玩到后面也没有腻。 整体就是非常非常好玩的线性小游戏,可惜流程太短了,大概三十小时左右就能通关,打的时候看了很多但又少得可怜的攻略,很有帮助。画风太好看啦很治愈,做菜器具多,创建食谱也很自由,研发菜谱很爽。口味系统我觉得做得十分出色,特别好玩!记得先去男巫那边买口味笔记,这样就能知道做出来是什么味道的菜了,质量笔记可以知道做出来几颗星。我到后面才找到学院图书馆,好多道具都浪费了没用了,悲,记得早点找,就在香料集市右下角!T T 总之很好玩很好玩,我玩游戏磨磨唧唧的,游戏又多得很,基本买来玩一个小时就扔那了,下一次玩不知道几年后了。打开就连续玩通关的少之又少。喜欢收集探险烹饪线性流程清任务的冲,喜欢清图找隐藏不介意跳跳乐的冲,本J人玩得一本满足,这么好的题材不做续作真是可惜了诶,还是期待一下续作吧。
If you like exploration, cooking or potion making, and figuring things out, then Magical Delicacy is the game for you. The artsyle is gorgeous and the music is also quite good. However, I did have to look up some guides for some of the recipes. I would say that the game became frustrating at times if I focused on one specific main story quest, because some of them have prerequisite side quests and this is not made clear at all. The best way to play the game is just exploring and doing side quests until you have everything you need to progress the main story. I only wish the map was bigger! I played the game on Steam Deck with almost all the settings on easy. I also really appreciated all the accessibility features!
Magical Delicacy is a short and sweet metroidvania style platformer and cozy game that scratches that itch for turn your brain off fun and just follow directions. The town of Grat is fun to explore, and while the story and its citizens aren't the deepest of characters, the general sense of comfort that comes from the game lends itself to a short lived, but fun wave of immersion. I do wish there was a bit more to the cooking elements of the game, and more room to explore different recipes, but at it's price point and getting about twenty-five hours of playtime to platinum and without having any real complaints about the game. I think it is well-worth it, provided you enjoy platforming.
