This year I've grown fond of these little, shorter and more experimental games, and so far the experiences have gone from profound and interesting narrative pieces, to just a fun little time; Tet falls perfectly into the second category, and I found it to be a really cozy and interesting 10 minute little kitchen lesson.

It takes the ideas of fast paced minigames that other titles like Wario Ware are known for, but puts them all under a global timer, and the objective is to prepare dinner before the guest arrive. It's an extremely cute and relatable experience that it almost feels like a retelling of an actual story, only with much more absurdity added and a really unique visual hand-drawn style. It even gives you the recipes for the food you just prepared after you beat the game, it's really so goddamn adorable, and it’s just a really nice ten minutes to spend preparing a meal I had no idea how to make, tho I'll say some of the ''minigames'' felt a bit weird to control. Nothing bad or too distracting, but one or two felt a bit jarring despite being so short.

If anything I said caught your attention, play it! It's extremely short, totally free and extremely relaxing despite the pressure.

Welp, add this to the list of games that make me feel hungry!... a list like that would be a fun idea actually...
