Coming to Steam Early Access
A restaurant tycoon where you are part of the crew. Work wherever you want, in the kitchen, at the register or on the floor, build the place yourself and pick one of four restaurant types.
The whole restaurant is yours to work in.
Cook, take orders, carry plates, fix a broken fryer, or step back and run the numbers. What kind of place it becomes is up to you.
You start as one person with skills of your own. Click any station and you do the job yourself, and your skills decide how fast and how well it goes. Every order and prep task lands on the job board, where you pick your work alongside the crew you hire.
Rent a shop on the city map and lay out the kitchen and the dining room yourself, with stations from grills and fryers to stone ovens and walk-in coolers, and decor in four styles.
A fast-food counter lives on speed and packaging. A café takes orders at the counter and brings plates to the tables. A diner cooks its pots in the morning and sells from the display. A bistro serves in courses, with reservations.
Any of the four can add pickup and bicycle delivery, and on a street with a car lane, fast food and cafés can open a drive-through.
Dishes from kitchens around the world, each built from its parts. A dish goes on the menu only if someone in the kitchen can cook it, so every hire is also a menu decision. Pay to train your cooks and the menu grows with them.
Swap an ingredient, a sauce or a side, and the cost, taste, cooking time and station all change together. No slider simply makes food better. Save your own versions, name them and make one the signature of the restaurant.
During service the flow map shows where people walk, where they wait and which station is holding everyone up. Move a cook, add a second fryer or give tired staff a room to rest. Machines wear out: mend them yourself or call a technician.
Guests live in the city, each with a neighbourhood, a budget and a taste of their own, and they remember how their last visit went. Treat them well and they come back as regulars; let them down and it shows in the reviews. Rain, match nights and the day a food critic sits down keep every day different.
Rival restaurants share the city, and every season the city magazine ranks the best places and the people behind them. Perfect your formula, save it as a template and open branches across the city's districts.

Toque is in active development and keeps growing through Early Access: new cuisines, dishes and recipes, and new districts and places, waterfront terraces among them, with special days and city events that shake up the week.
