A culinary journey awaits in Cook for Me, Grandpa!
Individual developer Kamekichi today officially released Cook for Me Grandpa!, a charming AI-powered cooking simulator, on Steam. The game combines heartfelt storytelling with innovative gameplay, challenging players to take on the role of a reclusive grandfather as he rediscovers the joys of cooking and family.
Powered by AI's advanced Large Language Model (LLM), Cook for Me Grandpa! provides a unique, dynamic experience where every interaction feels personal and spontaneous. Grandpa's daughter and his energetic AI grandchildren help players cook, experiment, and reconnect over warm, home-cooked meals.
The full version greatly expands on the original demo and includes over 300 ingredients. Now the number of stages has more than doubled, and there are also new storylines dedicated to friendship and family connections. Realistic cooking and budgeting mechanics make every meal meaningful, and new modes like Hard Mode and Marathon Mode add extra layers of challenge and creativity. In Marathon mode, players encounter random clues like “Make something with lime, ketchup, and peach,” testing their skills and imagination.
Players can unlock over 70 new ingredients, and an AI-driven world brings the kitchen to life, with vendors commenting on their products and grandchildren reacting to their dishes in real time. They can even share their recipes online and try to recreate others' culinary creations in real life.
Combining humor, heart, and practical cooking, Cook for Me, Grandpa! offers a cozy yet emotionally charged experience. This is more than a game about food; is a story about love, family and finding joy in simple moments.
