Prepared Foods is a lo-fi food service game by Sam Malabre hacked from Jason Tocci's 24XX. Slice meats, spill grease, and sneak pizza. The game is set in everyone's least favorite over-priced grocery store where you will deal with department-wide disasters, interactions with customers and leadership, and various things that could go wrong at each prep foods station (hot bar, pizza + sandwich, deli counter, and dish). Though Prepared Foods is based on real experiences of working in food service, it's also to some degree a fantasy, and suggests against bringing into play some of the worst parts of work under capitalism, like injury, harassment, and bigotry.

By registering, you are signing up to be one of the players who will actively engage in the game on the date & time listed. Please e-mail refest@culturehub.org if you can no longer make it as space is very limited.
