Do you love bread and sweets? If you do, Aeruta might be the perfect game for you! Experience Aeruta: a captivating fusion of dungeon delving and bakery management, offering adventure and culinary delight.
The story begins when during an adventure, Chaya, a fox girl aspiring to be a hero, accidentally breaks the oven at a bakery. Having to cover the debt for the damages, she has no choice but to start working there.
Though she has zero baking experience, Chaya helps out as the store’s cash register as well as embarking on adventures to gather baking ingredients. Where will Chaya’s odd story take her?
Set off on an adventure and discover new ingredients
It seems quite a few ingredients are missing from the pantry… You’ll be needing as many as possible to make lots of special recipes. Worry not, as all the ingredients you'll need are collectible from the various enemies ready to battle in your epic journey. For example, you can obtain Pain Pincers from crab monsters, Lucky Star Candies from Lucky Stars, and Fluffy Dumplings from Patty Kings.
But don’t let the monsters’ cute appearances fool you! Obtaining these special ingredients is no easy task. The monsters awaiting you are incredibly strong, and you may find yourself winded from battle and need a snack to regain health!
Aeruta is now available through Steam Early Access, and will remain so for six months to a year.
