A Culinary Journey Through the Cosmos
In Space Chef, players step into the role of an aspiring interstellar cook exploring the Horseshoe Nebula, a zany universe packed with adventure and opportunity. As the galaxy’s soon-to-be top chef, you’ll hunt, harvest, and cook your way through five alien planets, each teeming with unique flora and fauna — and plenty of hungry customers.

With 100+ craftable items to upgrade your ship, gear, and kitchen, Space Chef blends survival, simulation, and storytelling into a delightfully flavorful experience.
