Game overview

Glory Chef asks you to gather ingredients by linking them rather than cooking them. Matching items are connected in chains across the board, and longer chains collect more at once, which is what feeds the dishes you are serving. Speed and chain length both count, so the board reading matters as much as the reaction: the best link is rarely the first one you notice.

This title is best suited to players who want fast chain-matching with a cooking goal attached.

How to play Glory Chef

  1. Look over the board for a run of matching ingredients
  2. Drag through them to link the chain together
  3. Extend the chain as far as the matches allow
  4. Release to collect everything you linked
  5. Fill the dish and serve it before the round moves on

Controls

  • Mouse or tap: drag through matching ingredients to link a chain

Gameplay mechanics
