Additionally, there are already two excellent fishing minigames in circulation: <a href="https://traversefantasy.itch.io/fishing-minigame"><span style="text-decoration:underline">The Fishing Game</span></a>, from Marcia of the Traverse Fantasy blog, and <a href="https://torthevic.itch.io/riverbend-fishing-adventures"><span style="text-decoration:underline">Riverbend</span></a>, from Torthevic and Gustavo Tertoleone. So I looked a bit downstream of fishing: cooking. Every time my players reach a kitchen when exploring a dungeon, they want to cook. And every time I must develop an ad hoc cooking minigame (which is, for what it’s worth, the best way to do minigames. But the second best way is to use some weird blog post you found online).</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>A minigame should eschew the core mechanic used everywhere else in the game.</strong> That is what makes it feel like a minigame and not just an extension of the maxigame. Calling for a Dexterity test for chopping potatoes lacks a certain allure; it just blends into the rest of the game, forgettable, boring. </p><blockquote><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong><em>Blogger’s Note:</em></strong><em> This, and almost every tabletop cooking minigame I have come across, fails to fully replicate the fun and chaos of cooking. There is obviously a tradeoff between speed of play and accuracy of simulation. We can’t fully replicate cooking, we can’t do it. Now, what we might be able to do is re-create cooking. Re-create cooking in the aggregate. One area that the minigame below misses is the joy of a video game like Overcooked, in which the chaos and collaboration of cooking are on full display. Another is measuring the types of nutrition in a meal and creative uses of monster parts, of which Dungeon Meshi (or Delicious in Dungeon) is the shining example.</em> </p></blockquote><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>When the player-characters are at camp or in a safe place in the dungeon, have access to adequate cooking equipment, and at least two ingredients, they can attempt to cook a succulent meal.</strong></p> </div> </div></div><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image" data-block-type="5" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1717069432130_8382"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-inline combination-animation-site-default individual-animation-site-default individual-text-animation-site-default " data-test="image-block-inline-outer-wrapper" > <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " style="max-width:1500px;" > <div class="image-block-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" > <div class="sqs-image-shape-container-element has-aspect-ratio " style=" position: relative; padding-bottom:75%; overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black); " > <img data-stretch="false" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg" data-image-dimensions="1500x1125" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="" data-load="false" elementtiming="system-image-block" src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg" width="1500" height="1125" alt="" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, 100vw" style="display:block;object-fit: cover; width: 100%; height: 100%; object-position: 50% 50%" onload="this.classList.add("loaded")" srcset="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg?format=100w 100w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg?format=300w 300w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg?format=500w 500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg?format=750w 750w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg?format=1000w 1000w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg?format=1500w 1500w, https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc42d3b9955c744b550776c/4399be5a-c01e-4ba3-b7fe-2aaa6ae47826/bacon.jpg?format=2500w 2500w" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-loader="sqs"> </div> </div> </figure> </div> </div></div><div class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html" data-block-type="2" data-border-radii="{"topLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"topRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomLeft":{"unit":"px","value":0.0},"bottomRight":{"unit":"px","value":0.0}}" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1717069432130_8734"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-html-content"> <h3 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Ingredients</h3><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>Ingredients come in 5 varieties.</strong> Every ingredient, whether bought at a farmer’s market or extracted from the corpse of a monster, falls into one of these types.
