Our take on 黑暗料理?!
The game combines cooking with farming, ranching, customer preferences, and employee management, but that breadth comes with a maintenance trade-off: the developer says development and updates have ended.
What is 黑暗料理?!?
This restaurant simulation combines flexible cooking with farming, ranching, customer preferences, and staff management.
Players choose ingredients and seasonings to create dishes or unlock recipes, with examples including pepper-and-pork strips, braised pork, steak, and roast lamb. Customers have distinct personalities and individual tastes, represented by more than ten hand-drawn character types. The restaurant’s backyard functions as a farm for growing crops. A ranch can hold cattle, sheep, pigs, and bamboo rats, producing meat as well as eggs, milk, and other by-products.
Staff can be hired, assigned duties, and given names. The day-and-night cycle includes restaurant work during the day, followed by staff returning home and time spent at the farm or ranch. The developer says the game is no longer maintained.
