While it doesn't quite reach the same level, it's still a fun experience, and I definitely think it's worth picking up on sale. The core gameplay revolves around exploring dungeons, defeating food-themed monsters to gather ingredients, and using those ingredients to run the restaurant you inherited from your family. It's a fun concept, but unfortunately both halves of the gameplay loop have some noticeable flaws. The biggest issue with the dungeon side is that enemies appear in the exact same order on every floor. Once you realize this, there's very little reason to push deeper into the dungeon beyond collecting specific materials. As a result, the sense of challenge and progression gradually fades, making the roguelite loop less engaging than it could have been. The restaurant management also has one major drawback. No matter how much you expand or upgrade your restaurant, you can never hire staff. This means you're always responsible for every single task yourself—cooking, serving customers, and collecting payments. While this is enjoyable at first, it eventually becomes more exhausting than rewarding and weakens the feeling of progression that restaurant management games usually provide. The story is fairly simple and doesn't leave much of an impression, but that's not really the game's focus. Cuisineer shines as a relaxing game that you can play at your own pace without feeling pressured. It took me around 28 hours to complete the game 100%, and I enjoyed taking my time throughout the experience. If cozy roguelites and management games sound like your kind of thing, I'd definitely recommend giving Cuisineer a look during a sale. It's not without its flaws, but it's a charming and relaxing game that offers a unique blend of dungeon crawling and restaurant management.
Another worthy representative of dungeon crawling shop management sim. It is a lot like Moonlighter but with cuter graphics. So, same as others genre - gameplay is divided into two parts - shop management and dungeon runs. You’re managing restaurant, so what you could do in hub city is improve your weapons - you those are dropped from dungeon or bought in city, improve few abilities you have, improve your establishment, get cosmetics for both you and your house etc. In restaurant itself, there is cooking requested dished after you open it and placing furniture\cosmetics in most efficient manner with limited space available. Oh, also quests are received in hub area too. Dungeon runs share time with your business, so you have to choose where you’ll be spending precious work hours. Dungeon floors are procedurally generated and consist of a bunch of medium sized areas where you slaughter or gather cooking and crafting mats, ofc since your inventory is not infinite, if you go far enough, some sacrificed would have to be made and hard choice of what to throw away or keep will present itself constantly. After a number of floors boss could be encountered that would provide some gear and mats. Moving through the story, reveals new areas that provide new type of ingredients. Recipes are mostly received from completing town quests. Combat itself is pretty simple, you got attacks and rolls to dodge danger or move faster and that’s pretty much it, however what type of attack there is depends on weapon equipped, giving some options on what fighting style one would like to choose. Audio is fine, it’s mostly cuteish and bubbly to match visuals and thankfully does not go that far to become nuisance, but would win no awards or get viral. Sounds are kinda same too. Graphics as mentioned before are quite cute, especially 2d character pics in dialogs. So there will be no dark or brutal or realistic places or npcs, everything is aimed to keep you uplifted and relaxed, except for combat. Plot is very much like others in genre - you inherit shop, you got to take care of debt, befriend locals, develop your business and here also discover some family lore. And as with everything else - this aspect of game is also made to be lighthearted and warm. Nothing complicated or any unexpected twists, just very simple fuzzy questline.
I have conflicting opinions on Cuisineer. Initially the gameplay loop is short, sweet, and addictive. Combining action roguelite elements with a rudimentary cooking/serving minigame that never veers into overly complex or demanding. The goal here is for it to be a cozy, engrossing experience, a vibe, than it is looking to be complex. The visual art is very appealing. Lots of different kinds of recipes to collect each with highly detailed art to accompany the dish. If you like a bit of highly detailed food in certain anime, you might like this. Issues arise, however, in how it becomes progressively grindy. Requiring large amounts of materials. At a certain point you will have to make the choice to go on purely restaurant material upgrade runs, and cooking ingredient runs, as limited inventory space will make it difficult to do both at the same time. The cooking/serving side of the game is underdeveloped, as well. You simply click on the appropriate kitchen device that a customer has ordered a corresponding dish for, and then wait as a bar fills up. There is no "cooking minigame" here in which the preparation of food takes center stage. Combat, too, is underbaked. With a handful of items and "builds" that can change your playstyle a bit, but combat never reaches a level of being satisfying like other action-roguelites. You could say that it dips its toes into both of these arenas of gameplay, but underserves them both in the process. For what its worth, it is a very cute game. And if you play on the standard difficulty and just want a mindless, cute game to vibe with, I can recommend this game. If you're looking for something more complex in the area of roguelites or restaurant management, this might not scratch this itch.
This really is a hidden gem. Not only to get the cozy part of running a restaurant but i get the dungeon crawl? I fight for the food i serve! This is such a cool twist on the genre. And now you can even change Poms look. This is a 10/10 for me honestly. Its a game I come back to again and again and still enjoy it every play through.
Cute game similar to games like Dungioneer or Reccetter. Except it's a diner instead of a store. Two complaints though 1. Seasonal events are pointless since you pretty much just spend the day cooking anyways. 2. It would be nice if there was more to do in town. For now it's either open the resturant or farm mats. Meanwhile all town has is refill pots and upgrade one piece of equipment at a time or upgrade kitchen.
