XSEED Games and Marvelous Europe have exciting news for Nintendo Switch fans, as they’ve set a date for the release of Cuisineer.
Developed by BattleBrew Productions, this charming and appetizing game is a roguelite-flavored dungeon crawler where you step into the shoes of Pom, a young adventurer with a culinary twist.
Pom returns to her hometown, Paell, only to find her parents’ restaurant shuttered and burdened with debt. Her mission is clear: revive the family’s legacy and make the restaurant the talk of the town.
To achieve this, Pom embarks on dungeon quests armed with her trusty kitchen tools, facing off against comical foes like giant chickens and fire-breathing peppers in the diverse world surrounding Paell.
With every delve into these dungeons, the ingredients you gather can transform your rundown eatery into a bustling hub of deliciousness, promising to turn it into a parental pride.
Here’s what the game promises to offer:
Craft Your Own Delicious Culinary Experience: Whip up over 100 unique recipes from around the globe—think crunchy Popiah rolls, rich Kaya jam, tangy double-fried chicken, and berry-laden treats. Serve up the right dish to the right customer and upgrade your kitchen and dining area with the help of skilled local artisans.
A Smorgasbord of Dungeons: Discover changeable landscapes like the Green Ruins and Frozen Fjord. Each time you explore, these procedurally generated biomes surprise you with new forms and treasures.
Master the Flavors of Fighting: Defeat adversaries using elemental powers of Salty, Sour, Sweet, and more, unleashing exciting effects like flame and chain lightning. Equip yourself with quirky utensils such as the Spatula and Swordfish for a unique combat experience.
Take Quests to Go: The town of Paell is teeming with colorful characters, from Naicha the Bubble Tea vendor to Alder the amiable carpenter. As you venture out, keep an eye out for items they seek, and in return, reap rewards like gold, fresh items, and exciting new recipes to enhance both your culinary and adventuring skills.
Mark your calendars for January 28, 2025, when Cuisineer will be available both in stores and digitally on the Nintendo eShop, bringing its delightful mix of adventure and culinary creativity to Nintendo Switch players worldwide.
