Description
Something delicious is cooking up in the kitchen, and as a talented chef, it’s up to you to carefully carve up the right ingredients and turn them into culinary masterpieces. Prepare a wide variety of recipes from around the world, and hype them up to earn extra praise!
In Diced Veggies you take turns with the cleaver, slicing ingredient dice away from the shared chopping block and assigning them to the recipes you’re working on. This unique resource-gathering mechanism is the key to your scrumptious success. The particular veggies that your recipes require isn't your only consideration... you can only take a limited number of pips with each chop, and the right dice values can unlock all sorts of drool-worthy Hypes to boost a recipe's score!
A clever cleaver is all you need to whip up delicious recipes in this dice-slicing game for up to four chefs!
