Cook the Dungeon

dannylimanseta

Cook the Dungeon is a first-person roguelike deckbuilder where monsters are more than enemies—they're ingredients for the deck you haven't cooked yet. Explore a shifting dungeon in first person, forage strange plants, and battle bizarre food-beasts in tactical card combat. Land exact finishing blows to harvest valuable monster parts; overkill ruins the meat. At campfires, pair harvested parts with plants to cook limited-serving Dish Cards. Add them to your deck, manage Hunger, and build each run around Precise Cuts, Leftovers, Rot, Broth, Braise, relics, and distinct playable chefs. This free, work-in-progress browser demo currently ends after the Pantry Depths. Balance, content, writing, and presentation are still being refined.

Love the vibe, and the game is genuinely quite well designed, I made it to boss first time and it wasn't super easy getting there, so you did a good job in that regard. Found it through your X posts, super excited to play more of your work here if you bring more of it to wavedash! 💛

Love the atmosphere too! I was getting definite dank dungeon vibes.
