Gameplay Guide

Six ingredients

Sun, Moon, Star, Flame, Leaf and Water are the ingredients of every recipe. Each customer asks for a combination of three. The workbench prepares three ingredients when an order begins.

Keep, refresh, serve

Tap an ingredient or its KEEP button to preserve it. KEPT ingredients stay in place when you refresh. Tap again to release one. REFRESH replaces only available ingredients; when every ingredient is kept, release one before refreshing.

Each customer starts with two refreshes. Refreshing uses one charge and some customer patience. The preparation effect dissolves and reveals ingredients in their fixed slots; patience is paused during this effect, tutorials, pauses and when the app is inactive.

Select SERVE when ready. Two matches make a standard delivery, and three make a perfect delivery. The screen shows the income for both. Fewer matches earn no order income. A customer who runs out of patience leaves without paying.

Read the whole recipe

Some recipes accept ingredients in any order. Others require specific positions, exclude an ingredient, or accept either of two combinations. Read the request and any exclusion before serving. Each ingredient can satisfy only one requested position or occurrence.

One hundred nights

Five chapters contain twenty nights each. Meet both the served-order target and income target to clear a night. More income and perfect deliveries earn additional stars. Coins come from completed orders, tasks and first-clear rewards; starting an order and refreshing do not stake coins.

Tools and workstations

The shop offers five focus tools and five workstations. Earned coins buy them at fixed prices. Tools add 0%, 16%, 32%, 48% or 65% to each needed ingredient's base weight; stations add 0%, 8%, 17%, 26% or 35%. The combined equipment weight bonus is capped at 100%. Repeated ingredient needs contribute repeated weight layers, and the six weights are normalized before preparation. These are weight bonuses, not guaranteed outcomes or percentage-point increases in success.

Four supplies

• Supply Ticket: restores the current order to two refreshes.
• Patience Glass: restores 30% of maximum patience, up to the maximum; cannot revive a departed customer.
• Focus Lens: adds 0.20 to the needed-ingredient weight in one available slot on its next refresh.
• Service Bell: accepts a one-match order as a standard delivery, never a perfect delivery.

Each supply is limited to one use per level and requires an item from your inventory.

Worktop finishes

Choose Natural Walnut, Sage, Rosewood, Moonwood or Ebony. Finishes change appearance only and have no effect on ingredient chances or income.

Progress and returning players

Progress is stored on your device. Resume an unfinished night from the lobby. Returning to the lobby keeps income already earned but does not clear the night. Existing progress, tools, stations and supplies are carried forward when updating from the previous version.
