Chef Survivor

The food has had enough. Grab a knife, pick a chef, and see how long you last.

Chef Survivor is a bite-sized roguelike survival game. Your cookware swings on its own — your only job is to move, dodge, and choose the right upgrade when the level-up cards appear. A full run is 30 minutes and ends with a boss that wants you in the pot. Take Quick Cook for the whole arc in 10, or play the numbered levels: one goal each, three stars to earn.

ONE THUMB, NO PRESSURE
Move with a thumbstick anywhere on the screen. Weapons fire automatically. That's the whole control scheme — playable standing on a bus, one-handed, with the sound off.

BUILD A RUN, NOT A LOADOUT
Start with a single weapon. Every level-up offers a fresh hand of cards: a new weapon, a deeper upgrade, or a passive that changes how everything else behaves. Push a weapon to max level, find its catalyst passive, and it EVOLVES into something far nastier — 36 evolutions to discover. Treasure chests roll one, three or five rewards at once, and spice racks offer rules that change the rest of the run.

EVERY KITCHEN FIGHTS DIFFERENTLY
Lava vents erupt under the crowd, cans and toast rain from above, conveyor belts carry everyone along, gusts push the horde one way and void rifts swallow it whole. Lure the food into the trap — it hurts them far more than you. Chase the Golden Goose for a chest, stand on a hot plate for a free reward, and grab the egg timer to freeze the whole kitchen.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• 16 chefs, each with a different starting weapon, active ability and rule of their own
• 36 base weapons and 36 evolved forms
• 36 passive items that reshape a build
• 74 enemy types and 18 bosses, from the Angry Tomato to the Döner Colossus
• 12 kitchens, from your own kitchen to a smokehouse ranch and a spice bazaar, each with its own hazard
• 30 levels with goals, rules and 90 stars to earn
• 5 modes: Classic (30 minutes), Quick Cook (10), Endless, Boss Rush, and a Daily Special everyone plays on the same seed, with its own leaderboard
• Heat 0–10 on every kitchen: tougher food, more coins
• 85 goals, daily and weekly orders, a stamp calendar and a monster album

PROGRESS THAT STICKS
Coins from every run go into permanent upgrades. Lost runs still pay. Chefs level up through mastery, kitchens and modes unlock as you win, and your save is backed up by Android itself — a new phone restores your progress with no account and no login.

OFFLINE-FIRST, NOTHING TO BUY
Nothing is for sale. There are no in-app purchases at all — no gems to buy, no packs, no premium currency. Optional rewarded videos, every one behind a button that says what it gives: boost a run's coins, take a second chance when a run ends, reroll an upgrade hand, double a treasure chest, take a short boost mid-run, try a locked chef or kitchen, swap or double an order, or take the daily coin bonus. Watch as many as you like — or none. The game never opens one by itself: no timers, no ads between screens, nothing that starts without you pressing it, and walking past any of them costs you nothing you already earned. Everything that affects gameplay is earned in the kitchen. Sign in with Google Play Games if you want leaderboards and cloud save — or don't: guests get every kitchen, chef, level and mode, fully playable on a plane.

SMALL AND FAST
Under 15 MB. Every sprite is drawn by the game's own code as it starts, and even the music and sound effects are synthesized — so the download stays small and the art stays sharp on any screen. Runs at 60 fps on modest hardware, adapts on its own if a device struggles, and hands you the whole graphics panel if you would rather decide yourself, changeable mid-run.

ELEVEN LANGUAGES
English, Turkish, German, Spanish, French, Indonesian, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese — the whole game, every weapon name and every enemy taunt included, switchable in Settings at any time.

Cook or be cooked.
