About the Game

On this short and dark adventure of “Cooking is Magic!”, Camille awakens once more in the kitchen of a purgatory’s restaurant. Hunger calls her again. Grotesque creatures knock on the door with orders… and she will have to take them. After all, a ritual must be served.

Explore your surroundings

Find ingredients on the kitchen tables or beyond the doors of the restaurant. Listen to the whispers and watch how the world changes through each day.

Solve puzzles and cook

Each client brings a different order, and each dish requires attention and sacrifices. Match objects, watch clues and prepare recipes that should never be made.

Know your customers

The creatures don`t ask only for food. They speak, watch and accuse. Each encounter is a piece of the ritual… and from a past that Camille tries to forget.
