Get ready to embark on a flavor-filled adventure this January 28th with Cuisineer, a captivating roguelite dungeon crawler by Marvelous, XSEED Games, and BattleBrew Productions. It’s making its way to the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5, and it promises to be quite the treat!
Imagine returning to your quaint hometown of Paell, only to discover that your parents’ restaurant is shuttered and drowning in debt. The only way to right these wrongs is to reopen the eatery and bring it back to its former glory. But to do this, you’ll have to dive into dungeons!
Prepare to venture beyond Paell, wielding spatulas and saucepans as you face off against enormous chickens, shrimp artillery, and fire-breathing peppers, all while enjoying sips of boba tea to keep you refreshed.
Round up ingredients from your surroundings and whip up dishes that will draw crowds to your previously neglected restaurant, transforming it into a culinary haven that your parents would be proud of. But be prepared for the lunchtime rush—it can get intense!
