Story

Oh my...! It looks like there isn't a single dish in this world yet.
Well then, let us whip up something special for you!
Wait a minute... it looks like I forgot my recipe notebook... 💦
Maybe playing the puzzle will help me remember!

The game looks and nice, especially for being so small in size. How do you access the prep puzzle while playing the game, though?

Thank you!

To access "Prep Puzzle," you need to play "Cooking Puzzle" a few times (try making various dishes).

It might be a good idea to get used to creating and using "Special Move Blocks" while playing "Cooking Puzzle".

Would an English version be possible? I like the game but I don't understand many things.

Thank you for your interest!

Since the game's design and themes rely heavily on the Japanese language, I believe creating an English version would be difficult.

However, I am considering translating some of the Japanese text and sharing it via devlogs or similar channels.
