Your first thought at seeing this game might be, 'Just like a typical cooking game'

...but the real battle lies behind the cooking...and the frying pan behind your back...

■Hectic sabotage action

Whacking others with a pan to steal their stuff,

or swiping their food while they’re looking the other way.

It’s like a battle royale, right in the middle of class!

Do whatever it takes to win! There's no right or wrong! All is fair in cook-and-war!!

■Whack them! Before they snitch!

If your under-handed actions are seen by other students, they'll rush to tell the teacher.

And if you don't stop them...a "stunning" bolt of justice will strike, costing you precious bento-time!

To prevent this we'll need them to forget what they've witnessed...

So chase them with your frying pan, and go right for the head! Instant memory-loss!

■Surprisingly deep strategy!?

Just whacking others won't help you win the game.

You'll have to cook, to steal, to attack, and balance multiple tasks in order to get ahead of the other players.

Or...perhaps keeping a low, pacifist profile is also a viable strategy...?

The way of the violent pan, or the path of peaceful cooking...

To win by force, or by diligent skill...

the choice is yours.
