A wholesome adventure set in an enchanting world, Magical Delicacy invites you to play as the young witch Flora. Growing up on the small island of Ulport, located in the far North, young Flora has never known any witches other than herself. Determined to reach greater magical heights, she knew she needed to find a new home in order to develop her skills. With that goal in mind, she ventures forth to the harbor town of Grat — a gathering place for adventurers from across the world.  

Upon arriving in Grat, she is offered a place to live — but not for free! To make sure that she can earn her keep, Flora takes up the task of delivering food and potions, cooked with the power of magic, to deliver to hungry townsfolk — mysterious travelers, forgotten legends, and masters of their craft. As she explores the seaside town and meets all its colorful characters, she’ll discover their stories and learn that there is more to Grat than meets the eye.

Collect an assortment of inspiring ingredients from shops, foraging through the town, and by growing them in your garden. Cook up a storm in your upgradeable kitchen using a variety of tools and deliver your meals to fulfill hungry customers' orders. Explore the unfamiliar town of Grat, learn new ways to traverse, discover secrets, and experience a unique and witchy world one dish at a time.

Key Features of Magical Delicacy include:

  • Collect new recipes and ingredients through trade, questing, growing vegetables in your garden, and exploring throughout the town of Grat. 

  • Learn an extensive cooking system, allowing for flexible, creative choices to fulfill even the oddest orders.

  • Build the kitchen of your dreams by commissioning new equipment to help you create even more delicious dishes.

  • Experience a wholesome linear story filled with witchy wonder and intrigue, with many optional encounters and free play opportunities.

  • Traverse a 2D platformer inspired by Metroidvanias, gain new abilities, reach new areas, and unlock shortcuts.

  • Immerse yourself in a dynamic cozy pixel art style that brings colorful characters, environments, and, of course, delicious food, to life.

Magical Delicacy is now available for purchase on PC via Steam, and Xbox One and Series X|S for $24.99 USD and for free to Xbox Game Pass holders. The Magical Delicacy soundtrack is out now on Steam, Bandcamp, Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora, Tidal, and Deezer. The game will launch on Nintendo Switch on August 15.
