At myPotatoGames, we love cooking games. We love tycoon and management games, too! And we’re so happy when we uncover games on Nintendo Switch that are like hidden gems that encompass one or all of those genres. Check out Marenian Tavern Story, Automachef, World Tree Marche and Gym Hero for affordable family-friendly games with lots of foodie fun! All available right now.
Marenian Tavern Story: Patty and the Hungry God
You may not know this, but Marenian Tavern Story: Patty and the Hungry God is actually a sequel to Adventure Bar Story on the 3DS. But you don’t need to play one to enjoy the other! Patty is a young woman with a brother who has been possessed by the god of poverty. Because of this, her family has been saddled with terrible debt! You’re going to have to pay that back, and opening a tavern seems like the best way to do it. Explore, gather, fish and garden to get your ingredients, and uncover over 600 recipes to use them in. Level up by eating great food so that you can conquer dungeons and discover ever better and rarer ingredients. What kind of menu will YOU put together?
World Tree Marché
World Tree Marche is an easy-going game that won’t make you feel rushed or under pressure. You are the Royal Food Adviser, and you must run the world tree’s market. To do so, you will need to guide six chefs (all named after spices!) in creating new and exciting recipes to earn money for the struggling world tree and stop the terrible plans of the Gourmand Corporation. Each chef you work with has their own personality and story, as well as unique strengths and weaknesses. (See our previous article on World Tree Marche for a more information and a trailer.)
Automachef
In Automachef, you may be more engineer than epicure, but that won’t stop the hijinks! Your job is to design (and build) automated restaurants. To do so, you will need to solve puzzles in spacial placement, resource management, and scenario-specific situations. You can do this in campaign mode, contracts mode, or let lose of all constraints in sandbox mode. Guide your somewhat hapless protagonist, Robert Person, to success, with lots of laughs along the way. See our pre-release article about Automachef for a full list of features!
Gym Hero – Idle Fitness Tycoon
At this point, you may have gotten TOO MUCH great digital food. To our surprise, the Switch has a game to balance that. In Gym Hero: Idle Fitness Tycoon, you get to take an unmotivated couch potato and spiff their empty little room up into their own personal gym. Buy exercise equipment, motivational posters and health supplements and press your character to use them properly. After all of that cyber-cooking, you can also reach your digital dream weight! Who knew?
If you’ve already drained the Nintendo Switch e-shop dry of cooking content, there’s more to look forward to in the future. Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3 is entering early access on PC in January and we hope it will end up on Switch someday, like its predecessor. For the mother of all cooking games, check out Cooking Mama: Cookstar, latest in the Cooking Mama series, coming to Switch and PS4 in October!

Automachef is an indie puzzle game in which you will have to build automatic kitchens for a robotic fast food tycoon who believes he’s a human. Automachef will be releasing for PC and Nintendo Switch in Q3 2019. This game is developed by Hermes Interactive and published by Team17 (My Time at Portia and Overcooked). Prepare yourself to become a masterful kitchen manager and wishlist it on Steam!
Robert Person is the name of the robot…we mean human…that will guide you and offer you help throughout the levels. You can choose from dozens of different machines to build your automatic kitchen in exactly the way you want. For example, conveyor belts, robotic arms, splitters, computers, gates and much more! Automachef features computers you can program in assembly code, or using a simple visual editor, to make other machines, such as robotic arms or ingredients dispensers.
Our very trusty “human” friend Robert Person The game features 30 campaign levels, 10 bonus levels, three exciting game modes, dozens of different recipes to prepare (i.e. cheeseburgers, salads, hot dogs), special events, disasters, and more! The three modes in Automachef are: the Campaign Mode, building a business in Contracts Mode and practicing your builds or playing freely in Test Site Mode. Furthermore, if you have created the perfect production line, you can save your plans as blueprints to use in future kitchens!
