About the game
A little kitchen with no score, no timer and no way to lose. Chop, cook and serve whatever you like to four hungry regulars, and watch what they make of it.
Ladlewick is a kitchen you play with rather than a game you win.
Drag food out of the pantry and drop it on a station: the board slices, the pot boils, the pan fries, the fryer crisps, the grill chars, the blender purees and the microwave warms. Leave something too long and it burns — nobody likes burnt. Add a squeeze of sauce if you want. Then drag the dish to your diner and watch the reaction.
Four regulars, four sets of tastes. Bramble the troll wants it cooked hard: meat, mushrooms, fire. Pip the bird wants it fresh and light and nothing greasy. Mochi the cat wants fish and milk, and treats a vegetable as an insult. Nub eats almost anything, and the messier the better.
There is no score, no clock and no way to fail. Kitchen Setup lets you choose which stations sit on the counter and how the kitchen behaves, and the Dish Log remembers everything you have served and how it went.
Runs entirely offline. Nothing to sign in to, nothing to buy, no ads, no data collected.
