Hi everyone! This is the game I've wanted to make quite some time, and now it is ready. It... - has an unique game mechanic. I didn't want to copy anybody else's game but to do something new. - might look easy but is devilishly hard. It's number crunching on a game board. Since there are no random elements, it's very deep thinking, you can think many moves in advance. I wanted to make a game that makes you think. - is fair. I'm sick and tired of the current pay-to-win / freemium games that constantly nag the player for money, tempt to buy stuff with various game mechanics. There's no coins to buy, no way to "cheat" by paying. It's still free. - all all game and very little fluff. I did everything by myself, design, levels and code, so it's very focused.

The game might look simple: odd numbers add and even numbers subtract - drag and combine tiles together to fulfill the goals of each level… but you will very quickly figure the problem to be anything but simple. You know how some games seem to make it sure that you cannot complete a level no matter how well you play that round? In Number Chef, each level is always solvable on the first try... If you just think hard enough!Number Chef is also stripped free of many annoyances – it doesn’t beg for your money or tease you with mechanisms that make you wait to be able to play more. Great for all ages - what are you waiting for?COMPLETELY NEW AND ORIGINAL Who says there are no new game ideas anymore? HANDCRAFTED EPISODESEach of the 150 levels a carefully handcrafted and fine-tuned puzzle. Each level is solvable on the first try - most levels can be solved in multiple ways, some in a *very* creative manner.READY FOR A CHALLENGE?The challenge constantly builds up with new types of game pieces appearing in each episode. FAIR PLAYThere is no way to "Pay to Win" to please the chef. The game doesn’t try to prompt to buy consumable coins after every level, or frustrate you with energy bars, impossible levels, slowly recharging lives or level timers.
