Made for the Ludum Dare 52 game jam.

Market Restaurant is a turn-based cooking game, where you shop the local harvests, and make delicious meals for your patrons.

How to play

The only control is a left mouse click. There's in-game tutorial. It's a lot of text, but you can skip it to get right to the game.

You buy ingredients from shops in the market, and then you go to the restaurant to cook those ingredients.

  • Click on "Visit the restaurant" to see your ingredients, combos, and cook. Click on ingredients in your inventory to add them to the cookpot.
  • Click on "Visit the market" to see the market shops. From the market, click on the blue table to purchase ingredients.
  • Click on "End turn" when you purchased all the ingredients and cooked all the combos that you wanted to buy/cook. They'll be updated in the next turn.

Upkeep will be charged after every turn. If you can't pay the upkeep, you lose.

Tips

  • Look at the "Tasty combos" in the restaurant. Using these ingredients will multiply the cook score. They change after a few turns.
  • All ingredients being cooked will receive the combo multiplier.
  • Combos multiply each other too.
  • Ingredients have a quality. Lower quality lowers the cost of the ingredient, but also the cook score.
  • Ingredient quality goes down over time, so don't hoard ingredients.
