About Cryptid Cafe: The Chef's Apprentice
Welcome to Cryptid Cafe: The Chef's Apprentice! This game is set in the same universe as the popular Cryptid Cafe. This time around, instead of serving customers in the front-of-house, we’ll be venturing into the back-of-house, where players will take command of their cryptid line cook with aspirations of becoming a chef someday. However, before putting on that glorious white chef’s hat, they must first become…The Chef’s Apprentice. Each turn, you and your fellow players will choose monstrous food dishes from the main chef's table board and plate them in your own tableau format. Your placement, preparation, and garnishing skills will determine how well you satisfy the customers' requests and earn their praise. Your cryptid line cook's expertise will also come in handy as you prepare dishes. However, be warned of challenges from the Kraken Chef, who will test your skills and separate you from the pretenders. The player who earns the most praise from the customers and our resident Chef wins the game. Are you ready to become The Chef's Apprentice? —description from the designer
