Magical Delicacy

Magical Delicacy is a combat-free cooking and platforming game set in Grat, a harbor town built on cliffs. You play as Flora, a young witch who travels there to pursue her dream of becoming a proper witch and opens a shop. You explore the town, gather ingredients and fulfill the townsfolk’s food orders to progress and unlock kitchen tools.

Flora and the covens

Grat was settled by adventurers who came to chart an unexplored island full of mystery. As Flora becomes part of the town’s thriving economy, she encounters Cassia, a witch, and Tauno, a magus, who belong to opposing covens. Both have much to teach her, but they also draw her into their dispute about magical beings. The linear story includes optional encounters and room for open-ended play.

Explore Grat

The town’s pathways open up as you progress. You meet shop owners, mysterious travelers, forgotten legends and masters of their crafts; some appear only during the day or night. You can accept dozens of orders, shop for keepsakes and upgrades, and uncover the island’s long-forgotten secrets and mystical creatures.

Platforming and exploration are central to collecting ingredients and advancing. You climb bell towers and old ramparts, explore old catacombs, and gain movement upgrades that reveal new routes, hard-to-reach places and shortcuts back to your shop. Easy Platforming mode disables various challenges for a more comfortable experience.

Gather and cook

You gather some ingredients in the town’s nooks and crannies and buy others from merchants. Forageable ingredients eventually grow back, and merchants restock their shops. Your kitchen can store ingredients for cooking and experimentation; you can also sell them to merchants for Beads, the currency used for trading.

Cooking involves choosing ingredients to meet different attributes and customers’ unusual requests. Follow recipes or experiment with your own creations, then sell or deliver meals, potions, teas and pastries. Customers include the croaking Gaball and the feline Tilin, with tastes ranging from local cuisine to Flora’s hometown recipes. You also collect ingredients and recipes through trade, quests and exploration.

Make the kitchen yours

You begin with basic equipment and acquire new kitchen tools as you progress. Unlock rooms to arrange and customize your tools, store ingredients and improve cooking efficiency. You can put unused creations up for sale and grow plants in the backyard.

The game features pixel art and a cast of characters who place food orders. Its progression connects map exploration with delivering orders, and its accessibility options include Easy Platforming mode.
