About the Game

Embark on an Epic Culinary Adventure with Lanya, the Legendary Hero's Daughter!

One peaceful day, while running a restaurant with her retired parents,
Lanya is suddenly engulfed by a strange light and transported to another world.

The land she crash-lands in is cursed by the gods, where cooking has been forbidden.
Immune to the gods’ curse, Lanya becomes the only chef in this world.

Show the people a variety of flavors in this land where cooking is banned, reclaim the freedom of taste stolen by the gods, and embark on a journey to find your way home.

Hunt, Eat, and Survive

Each field is home to its own unique monsters.
Hunt them to gather ingredients, and collect resources through logging and mining to continue your journey.

The “Gifts” earned in battle grant you temporary strength during expeditions but vanish once you return.
However, the resources you bring back can be used to strengthen your weapons and crafting, allowing you to grow little by little.

Short expeditions and small victories will accumulate into the strength you need to venture further into the world.

You Are the Only Chef in This World

Prepare for expeditions or craft snacks at camps scattered throughout the land. Choose your ingredients freely and create your own recipes.

But remember—Lanya has a small appetite and can’t eat much at once.
Keep an eye on Fullness when preparing snacks.

Snacks can provide various buffs, and special snacks found during expeditions may grant unique effects when eaten.

When your journey ends, use the leftover ingredients to serve meals to the people.

Grill steaks the traditional way, roast skewers, or simmer hearty soups to win over your customers.
The money you earn will become the fuel that drives your next adventure.

Challenge the Gods of Taste!

Why did the Gods of Taste strip people of the joy of flavor and cooking?

Defeat the guardians that protect them, confront the gods themselves, and uncover the hidden secrets of this world.

Reclaim the freedom of cooking, and set out on the journey that may reveal the way for Lanya to return to her original world.
