More About Hungry Horrors
In *Hungry Horrors*, you play as a princess tasked with preparing traditional British and Irish dishes to appease folklore creatures and prevent them from turning you into their next meal. This game seamlessly blends deckbuilding with culinary arts, resulting in a uniquely brilliant experience.
The game boasts a retro pixel art style and gothic vibes, with humor being a standout feature. You'll be whipping up dishes like Bara Brith and Cranachan, striving to meet the picky preferences of each monster. These creatures, like the centuries-old legends Jenny Greenteeth, a swamp witch with a taste for blood, and Black Annis, a child-snatching hag with iron claws, have haunted folklore for ages. Fail to satisfy their appetites, and you might find yourself on their menu!
Your challenge is to decipher what each monster craves and despises. You'll encounter legends such as Grendel and Redcap, each with their own bizarre culinary preferences. One might adore sweet treats, while another might recoil at the sight of fish.
The deckbuilding aspect adds an extra layer of fun. You'll combine ingredients and use utensils, spices, and herbs to enhance your meals. Strategic planning is key, as you balance flavor profiles and craft your dishes meticulously.
As you advance, you'll unlock new recipes and ingredients, as well as legendary artifacts and rescued familiars. Don't miss out on exploring more about the game on its Steam page.
