Life, the Universe, and Restaurants

Open your restaurant for business in the vast reaches of space, take orders, and prepare every dish by hand! Gather ingredients, prep and process them, plate each dish, and serve it—all while racing between the kitchen and Customer Tables to keep up with an ever-growing stream of orders.

Too much for one person to handle? Leave the work to all kinds of robots! Record your cooking routine, and your robots will repeat it endlessly. They can take orders, cook, serve dishes, transport Coins, and clean up.

Unlock higher-tier Recipes with increasingly complex preparation steps, then arrange multiple Cooking Robots to work together in sequence. Transform a frantic little kitchen into the most efficient automated production line in the cosmos!

Your goal is to complete the business objectives at each stage and upgrade your restaurant from 1 Star all the way to 5 Stars.

Earn Coins, unlock Recipes, purchase new cookware, and acquire new plots to expand your restaurant. Build more Customer Tables and production facilities, and hire additional robot staff. As your restaurant’s Star Rating increases, you'll unlock more purchasable plots, Recipes, structures, robots, ads, talents, and management systems.

As your kitchen grows, your dishes will become more complex—and your customers' demands will become increasingly outrageous. Keep purchasing new plots and expanding your restaurant. Refine your layout, optimize traffic flow, increase production capacity, and take on each Star Upgrade objective. Turn your humble little restaurant into a luxurious, highly efficient 5-Star establishment!

Running a successful restaurant takes more than knowing how to cook. You'll also need a sharp mind for business.

Use different ads to increase the profits from specific dishes—or even reshape your entire business strategy. Build Posters to make customers more likely to order particular dishes, or use TVs to steer them toward a carefully selected menu. Guide your business in exactly the direction you want.

Create your own business build around dish prices, order rates, serving speed, and automation efficiency. Promote the same dish day after day, rotate your menu, specialize in Veggie Dishes or Meat Dishes, and use queue length, your current Coin balance, or even "special events" to keep pushing prices higher. Find your own winning strategy and watch your daily revenue climb!

The customer is always right? Well, the customers here really are "gods"—but keeping every last one of them happy isn't necessarily the best way to run your restaurant!

Trash Bins, lighting, and other unusual methods can all drain your customers' patience. Once they completely lose patience, they'll fly into a rage and become impossible to reason with... which is exactly what you want!

Under the Cosmic Regulatory Bureau's "self-defense" provisions, you may legally kill unruly customers and harvest their valuable Brains.

Use the Brains of these "gods" to upgrade talents and unlock more powerful brain-based robots. Then deploy Turret Robots, Guards, and other Defense Facilities to protect your restaurant. After all, in this bizarre universe, it was never going to be just about cooking...
