Cook or be Cooked

Your next meal could be your last—or your true love.

You and your dysfunctional witch parents cook teens to prolong your youth and increase your powers. But when they bring you a cute girl as your next meal, will you follow tradition or risk everything to save her?

Step into a darkly whimsical tale of magic, morality, and twisted family values. You play as Lucas, a reluctant young witch trapped in a bizarre household where dinner isn’t just served—it’s hunted, prepared, and consumed with dark intent.

Will you embrace your parents' ways, find the courage to forge your own path, or fall prey to the cutthroat world of witches where it’s truly "eat or be eaten"?
