14 DAY TRIAL // It looks like publisher and developer Daedalic Entertainment has a very busy start of the year. After announcing new titles like Glitchpunk and Hidden Deep, the German studio released its two The Dark Eye classic adventures – Memoria and Chains of Satinav, on consoles. Early this week, Daedalic Entertainment made one more announcement that involves an unreleased game: Godlike Burger.
Developed by Liquid Pug LLC, Godlike Burger is a cooking sim with a twist where players run a restaurant and kill aliens. The game will launch into Early Access in the first half of 2021, but an exact release date has been announced yet.
Godlike Burger combines elements of a cooking simulator and business management game, with a strong pinch of crime and dark humor. As expected, players will make burgers, run a restaurant, find creative ways to turn alien customers into tomorrow's´ Special, and don’t get caught while doing it.
Fans of the genre will probably find the comparison more appropriate, so let's just say that Godlike Burger feels and plays very much like an older game called Pizza Connection. The upcoming game lets players set up the tables, equipment and decor, then serve customers who enter the restaurant in waves.
The main twist of the game is that the customers won't know that the secret ingredient in every burger is the customers themselves. Apparently, you'll have to kill your customers by luring them into traps or stab them to death, and bring the ingredients into the kitchen to be used when cooking burgers. Hopefully, the dark aspect of the game will feature enough comic aesthetic to allow players to focus on the humor rather than on the killing part.
Anyway, if you'd like to try out the game before it enters Early Access later this year, you can do that right now since Godlike Burger has a playable demo as part of the Steam Games Festival, which will be available until February 9.
