What to Expect
You run an artisan bakery across three fast rounds: draft dice from shared pools, manage Time and Money, complete sweet and savory recipes and upgrade your kitchen. The game blends Dice Rolling, Dice Drafting, Set Collection and Paper-and-Pencil play with Solo, Cooperative and Competitive modes. Warm, hand-crafted illustrations underscore the bakery theme and variable setups keep each session fresh.
Who Is This Game For?
Aimed at families and hobby gamers, for ages 10+, 1–4 players and around 60 minutes. The inclusion of Solo and Cooperative modes makes it accessible to solo players and groups; some experience with roll-and-write or drafting helps but isn't required.
How It Works
Core mechanics are Roll-and-Write and Dice Rolling with Open Drafting: players draft dice from common pools and record results on sheets (Paper-and-Pencil), building sets to fulfill recipes. Variable Player Powers alter starting conditions and strategies; resource management (Time and Money) limits available actions. Modes include secret-goal Competitive play, shared Cooperative objectives and a Solo challenge mode.
What Makes It Special
Designed by Sajgó Anikó and Béres Marianna, the game merges Dice Drafting with classic roll-and-write gameplay and Variable Player Powers. Its three-round structure and multiple modes (Solo/Coop/Competitive) make it notable within Food/Cooking themed roll-and-writes.
