Games like Moonlighter and Dave the Diver did a great job of creating a whole new genre – the cozy management game. Now we’ve got a new one to check out that hits in the same space – Monster Chef. If you were sitting there wondering “Why isn’t there a game where you can cook up the critters you kill and then serve them to customers?!” well…then something is probably wrong with you, and now you’ve got your game! Let’s check out Monster Chef.
Visceral hack’n’slash dungeon-crawling where you bring your freshly slaughtered game back to your tavern to serve up to your hungry patrons. The more dangerous, the more delicious. Sprinkle the incredibly expressive, charming, and hilarious 2D pixel art style on top, and you’ve got the makings of a hit.Cook What You Kill – Slaughter, season, sear, and serve delicious dishes for your customers and master a recipe book that grows as your kill count (and price) climbs Run Your Fantasy Tavern – Satisfy a diverse cast of patrons with cozy, addictive mini-games and management chaos where you keep the mugs full and plates hotFierce, Frenzied Fighting – Choose your weapon and your playstyle before going toe-to-toe with mythical creatures in glorious combatSlay In Style – Experiment with your customizable armor sets as you forge the perfect build for your huntsTo Be the Boss, Beat the Bosses – Hunt and forage on expeditions across five unique biomes, defeating the most dangerous denizens of the Forbidden Forest and bringing them home for dinner
