The wait is over — dinner is served. Clumsy Bear Studio has officially launched Hungry Horrors in its complete 1.0 form today, 13 October, stepping out of Early Access after two and a half years of loving development and glowing player feedback. With a 98% Very Positive Steam rating, this culinary deckbuilder is ready to feed the world.
From Early Access to Full Feast
Born from the passion of a tiny, self-funded team of two, Hungry Horrors cooked its way through Early Access since January 2026, shaping every recipe, mechanic, and story beat alongside the players who fell in love with it. The result? A fully realised adventure that’s as charming as it is strategic:
- 8 sprawling biomes across the British and Irish Isles
- 34 legendary Horrors to meet — and feed — each drawn from real folklore
- 62 authentic traditional dishes from Cranachan to Toad in the Hole
- 13 mythical characters including Herne the Hunter and Queen Mab
- The complete story campaign with a proper conclusion
- Plus seasonings, cookware, potions, familiars, fishing, and multiple difficulty modes
Feed Them Before They Feed On You
You play as a decidedly reluctant princess whose kingdom has been cursed — every mythical creature has turned ravenous, and it’s up to you to satisfy their appetites. Not with swords or spells, but with flavour:
- Build decks of recipe cards, chaining five tastes — salty, sour, savoury, bitter, sweet — into powerful combos
- Learn each Horror’s favourite and hated flavours to maximise satisfaction
- Equip cookware that changes the rules of every encounter
- Explore, gather ingredients, fish in misty lochs, and uncover the truth behind the curse
A Recipe for Indie Success
Two and a half years in the making, no publisher, no investors — just two devs making the game they wanted to play, listening closely to every voice in the community. The result speaks for itself: 98% positive across over 250 reviews, with players calling it fresh, funny, and deeply satisfying.
The 1.0 version is available right now on Steam for Windows, macOS, and Linux — fully Steam Deck Verified, with a launch discount live for the first week. Grab it while the feast is hot.
Bon appétit — and watch your fingers.
