Overview |

Miss Steak is a restaurant simulator game which aims to  deliver a gameplay experience that is similar to what restaurant staff in real life go through. Players will have two different roles to choose from, Service Staff who represent the front of house, and Chefs who represent the back of house. Players have to communicate and keep each other updated on their individual tasks to ensure customers leave the restaurant satisfied.

Playtest result |

In each of the many playtest groups we had, we have gathered that Miss Steak is indeed an engaging game, with the colouring mechanic being the obvious stand out star. We have also learned that Miss Steak’s sense of fun would reach its peak after the players have all begun truly communicating with one another. There was hardly any form of silence during our playtest sessions.

Even those who played as the GM noted how it was fun seeing their friends panic and work together, and how all the players would turn against the GM when the GM would deem a dish to be unsatisfactory; we feel that this simulates a real life restaurant to a certain extent, as the staff would have an unfounded expectation for the restaurant manager to have their backs.
