Game overview

Chef Righty Mix is a recipe-building game where the basket is the whole puzzle. You choose ingredients and flavourings, add them one at a time until the basket is full, and only then cook and serve, so a dish is decided before any heat is involved. Combinations that make sense score well and reckless ones produce something nobody wants to eat, which turns each round into a small test of whether you can think a recipe through in advance.

This title is best suited to players who like combination and recipe-planning games.
