About the Game

This game directly brings together restaurant management and suspense. While you prepare and deliver customer orders on time, you also have to deal with different threats that hunt you. Restoring power quickly during outages, checking the cameras before stepping outside, remembering to look behind you, and neutralizing the sniper that targets you if you go too far; all are part of survival.

The kitchen side is clear and practical: buy products, check and stock what comes out of boxes, set up fridge and shelf organization, cook, and deliver the right menu to the customer.

Highlights

Orders and delivery: Prepare the menu customers want and take it to the correct table.

Shopping and stocking: Procure boxes; check their contents and place items in fridges and on shelves.

Cooking system: Prepare ingredients in the correct order, cook, and serve.

Variety of threats

  • A hunter who enters the restaurant to search for you.

  • A presence that appears behind you and kills you if you don’t look.

  • Power outage: If you don’t restore it, you die.

  • Camera check: If you go outside without checking, you die.

  • Sniper: If you go too far you become a target; if you don’t neutralize him in time, you die.

  • Camera monitoring: If you go outside without checking cameras, you die. Before stepping out, monitor security cameras and time your move correctly.

  • Time and money management: Manage your time and money well. Earn enough cash, buy a sniper rifle to eliminate the enemy on the roof, and reach the ending by 24:00.
