‘Grotesque’ roguelike cooking game SATED announced for PC
Gamble for disgusting ingredients and feed monstrous clients.
Publisher CRITICAL RELFEX and developer Forest Reges have announced SATED, a ‘grotesque’ roguelike cooking game coming to PC via Steam. Sign-ups for the first upcoming public playtest are available now.
Here is an overview of the game, via CRITICAL REFLEX:
About
SATED is a grimy, hypnotic roguelike where you descend into a dripping megastructure to cook increasingly grotesque delicacies for an ever-hungrier monster, or become the meal yourself. Your only tool is a sentient, cursed fridge that works like a psychotic slot machine. Spin for twitching ingredients, bet everything and pray the customer leaves satisfied.
Key Features
- Feed the Abomination or Become the Meal – You’re trapped in a moving tram kitchen deep inside a rotting megastructure. Every stop brings a new monster with disgusting, impossible tastes.
- The Cursed Fridge is Your Only God – A sentient, gambling-obsessed refrigerator that works as a psychotic slot machine. Spin for twitching ingredients, pray for good RNG, and occasionally get owned by an “Inspection.”
- Cooking So Disgusting It’s Beautiful – Throw together organs, industrial waste, living insects, batteries, human eyes, and “Shit” class garbage. The order you drop them in the pot actually matters. One wrong move and your dish becomes cursed, moldy, or sentient.
- Deep Roguelike Builds – Stack deranged modifiers on your fridge that completely warp how you play. Turn every ingredient into gold, double your satiety, transform everything into Amalgam, or just embrace chaos. Become the ultimate degenerate chef.
- Monsters That Remember Your Failures – From angelic horrors begging for battery soup to submarine sharks craving marine delicacies. Each has unique tastes and cruel debuffs. The deeper you go, the more personal they get.
- Branching Tram Routes Through Hell – Choose your path on a living map. Hit shops, cryo capsules, modifier combiners, or mysterious stations between monster stops. Every route feels different. Every route can ruin you in a new way.
- High-stakes Gambling Meets Body Horror – Risk everything on fridge spins. Get rich. Go broke. Trigger events that spawn rats, golden rushes, or sudden voids. The house always wins… but sometimes the house gives you god-tier ingredients just to watch you suffer later.
- A Love Letter to the Unhinged – Inspired by Buckshot Roulette, Balatro, Inscryption, and pure culinary nightmare fuel. Grimy, hypnotic, and dripping with personality.
