Space Chef

Space Chef combines restaurant management, light survival RPG systems and life simulation in the zany universe of the Horseshoe Nebula. You explore for alien ingredients, cook dishes and serve customers from a customizable space trailer, while pursuing intergalactic culinary success and uncovering what happened to your missing grandma.

Explore the nebula

Search five alien planets, derelict space stations and your basement for plants, creatures and other ingredients. The planets include jungle-filled Lush and aquatic Bluegoonia, and the nebula holds more than 180 creatures and plants to hunt, harvest or avoid. You also encounter space pirates, ancient ruins and recently abandoned restaurants. Rare resources and random junk can be used to upgrade your gear, kitchen equipment and spaceship.

Cook and serve

Create more than 140 dishes using over 100 alien ingredients, from Beefle Skewers to Octoegg Surprise. Good food and speedy service earn Astronomical Culinary Excellence Stars. As your reputation grows, customers come to you; you can continue making deliveries or open a sit-in restaurant, and close the kitchen whenever an adventure calls. You set your menu, opening times and service style, including vegetarian and vegan options.

Build your restaurant

Freely place decorations inside your space trailer and use its coloring system to customize the interior. Add floors, arrange themed zones and furnish the restaurant with items found during your travels. More than 150 furnishings and decorations are available, alongside over 100 craftable items for your character, ship and kitchen.

Meet the locals

Get to know characters including Zoe the scrap dealer, faded Space Ace Jack Bronzon and the definitely-not-alien barman Zlurka. Customers have favorite recipes and questlines, and the game includes side quests and romanceable characters. With your new friends, you uncover the truth about your missing grandma and face Galactic Burger as it tries to muscle in on your space-turf.
