The beloved RPG adventure management game, *The Tale of Food*, where players commanded an army of handsome, personified dishes, is set to close its doors. Initially launched for a closed beta in China in September 2019 and later distributed by Tencent Games, the game has now announced its shutdown. Here’s everything you need to know about the end of *The Tale of Food*.
When Is the The Tale of Food Shutdown?
The final day to enjoy *The Tale of Food* will be March 20th, 2025, at 10:00 AM (UTC+8). As of today, February 18th, in-game purchases have been disabled. New player registrations are also closed, and the game has been delisted from the Google Play Store. However, if you've already downloaded the game, you can continue playing until the servers shut down on the aforementioned date.
What About the Jewels Collected in the Game?
If you purchased any jewels between January 9th and February 18th, 2025, you're eligible for a refund. You can request this by contacting in-game support or emailing the developers before March 20th. For more details on the terms and conditions of the shutdown, visit the official X account of *The Tale of Food*.
It's worth noting that the Japan server of the game was shut down in April 2023, followed by the China server in June 2024. Now, the global version is the next to go.
As your journey as the Food God’s kid, managing a realm filled with dumplings and suave seafood, comes to an end, remember that the official X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and Discord communities will remain active. These platforms will serve as a space for players to reminisce and share their memories of the game.
