Our take on Cooking Companions

The bounce point comes when the dating-sim framing gives way to psychological horror and survival pressure. Players expecting a gentle relationship story may find the disturbing themes, rising flood waters, dwindling supplies, and possible fate on the chopping block too severe.

What is Cooking Companions?

Cooking Companions is a psychological horror visual novel that takes place in the Tatras Mountains.

With provisions running low and floodwater advancing, players apply survival abilities while trying to maintain the group's morale. The narrative blends dating-sim mechanics with Eastern European folklore and requires choices about whom to aid. It offers 11 possible conclusions, 80 Steam achievements, over 55 artworks, and four vegan recipes. A photosensitive-epilepsy seizure warning accompanies the game, which is intended for mature audiences and people comfortable with disturbing material.
