Hungry Horrors, the innovative roguelite deckbuilder from UK-based Clumsy Bear Studio, is turning the genre on its head. Instead of battling monsters, you'll be cooking up a storm to satisfy their ravenous appetites. The game's first playable demo has just hit Steam, giving players a tantalizing taste of what's to come.
Following its PC debut, Clumsy Bear Studio plans to bring Hungry Horrors to mobile and console platforms as well. While an official release date remains under wraps, eager fans can dive into the demo available on Steam, Itch, and GOG. The developers have been actively engaging with the community, showcasing the game at events like the London Game Festival 2025.
The Steam demo offers a comprehensive preview of the game, featuring two handcrafted biomes, six hungry monsters to serve, two boss fights, and four NPCs to interact with. Players can also explore non-combat zones such as the Nook and the Trove, where they can regroup and refine their culinary strategies.
More About Hungry Horrors
In Hungry Horrors, you step into the shoes of a princess tasked with preparing traditional British and Irish dishes to appease folklore creatures. This unique blend of deckbuilding and culinary arts is both weird and wonderful. The game's retro pixel art and gothic atmosphere are complemented by its humorous take on cooking up dishes like Bara Brith and Cranachan to cater to the finicky tastes of legendary monsters.
You'll encounter iconic creatures such as Jenny Greenteeth, the swamp witch with a penchant for blood, and Black Annis, the child-snatching hag with iron claws. Fail to satisfy their cravings, and you might find yourself on the menu. The challenge lies in deciphering each monster's likes and dislikes, from Grendel's sweet tooth to Redcap's aversion to fish.
The deckbuilding aspect adds a layer of strategy, as you mix ingredients and use utensils like spices and herbs to enhance your dishes. Balancing flavor profiles and planning your culinary creations is key. As you advance, you'll unlock new recipes, ingredients, legendary artifacts, and even rescued familiars.
