Rice & Rest

Rice & Rest is a cooking game about serving meals and getting to know the people who visit your restaurant. You cook 11 Japanese-inspired recipes, some with multiple variations, using over 20 raw ingredients that can be prepared in different ways. As you serve customers and expand the menu, you learn about their lives and stories, as well as why you are there and more about the world.

Cooking and connection

Cooking opens the hearts of the people around you. A warm meal and a friendly ear can brighten someone’s day, ease their worries or spark new friendships. Your conversations range from lighthearted moments to thoughtful, introspective ones, and the main character is directly involved in the story.

The characters

You can cook for, chat with and befriend eight characters. They include a robot trying to understand humans, your new demon boss, and a wizard detective and his junior investigating a magical crime.

The restaurant

The game features hand-drawn art and jazz music by Ovani Sound.
