About the Game

Food Idle is a canvas-based idle game about building an efficient kitchen.

Connect ingredient tiles and cooking stations to produce simple and complex recipes. Then Sell them to earn gold. Upgrade your stations, add automation, and keep expanding until what started as a single process is a full operation running by itself.

Open crates to unlock new ingredients and recipes, discover more complex ingredients by producing them, and track your progress in the Cookbook. With over 1,000 ingredients and 1,600 recipes spread across ten production methods, there's always something new to create!
