Two Japanese Indie Dungeon Survival Games Blend Monster Hunting and Cooking Mechanics at BitSummit and on Steam
Two separate Japanese indie titles are drawing attention for combining dungeon survival gameplay with monster-cooking mechanics. Abyss Kitchen, developed by Pico Games and showcased at BitSummit, is a fantasy survival action RPG where players cook monster meat to support a moe party. Separately, NorthernStudio has launched a Steam demo for Abyss Ring, a roguelite dungeon survival game featuring randomly generated dungeons where cooking monsters is central to progression.
