About the game
You and up to three friends are rat chefs in a medieval restaurant. Skeletons, orcs and vampires sit down and order, and you cook, carry plates and clean up after them. Between days you pick bonus cards and level up your rat. Every item you own adds a daily tax, so a bad stretch can push you into debt.
How you split the work is up to you. One of you cooks, another waits tables and someone washes dishes. You can throw food across the room to save steps, and a baguette works as a weapon against rude guests and each other. Career mode builds your reputation over many days. The other mode is a 21-day run without debt.
You can play alone, but the game is made for a group. It has its own voice chat, and distance changes how well you hear each other unless you turn that off. Expect a loud, silly evening.
