Hungry Horrors, the latest quirky 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 cravings. The game has just released its first playable demo, available now on Steam, Itch, and GOG.
Following its PC debut, Clumsy Bear Studio plans to bring Hungry Horrors to mobile and console platforms. While an official release date remains under wraps, fans can dive into the demo to get a taste of what's to come. 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 substantial preview, featuring two handcrafted biomes, six hungry monsters to serve, two boss fights, and four NPCs to interact with. Additionally, there are non-combat zones such as the Nook and the Trove, where players can regroup and refine their culinary strategies.
More About Hungry Horrors
In Hungry Horrors, you play as a princess tasked with preparing traditional British and Irish dishes to appease folklore creatures and prevent them from turning you into their next meal. The game ingeniously combines deckbuilding with culinary arts, offering a unique and humorous experience.
Set in a world of retro pixel art and gothic aesthetics, the game's humor shines through as you whip up dishes like Bara Brith and Cranachan, catering to the finicky tastes of legendary monsters. From Jenny Greenteeth, the blood-thirsty swamp witch, to Black Annis, the child-snatching hag with iron claws, each creature has its own terrifying backstory and culinary preferences.
Your challenge is to decipher what each monster loves and loathes. You'll encounter iconic figures like Grendel and Redcap, each with their peculiar cravings. One might crave sweet treats, while another might recoil at the mere sight of fish.
The deckbuilding aspect adds a strategic layer to the game. You'll mix and match ingredients, using spices and herbs to enhance your dishes. Balancing flavor profiles and planning your culinary creations is key to success.
As you advance, you'll unlock new recipes and ingredients, along with legendary artifacts and rescued familiars. For a deeper look into the game, visit the Hungry Horrors Steam page.
