In short

Forest Chef lets players forage forest ingredients, trade them for staples, and cook pies, soups and pancakes for picky animal neighbours. It is aimed at children, including pre-readers who can use a read-aloud option, and at adults wanting a calm break. One notable feature is the Forest School, where cards teach about moose, cloudberries and Midsummer with no quizzes.

About

Igge Igelkott the hedgehog loves to cook — and the forest is hungry!

Wander the woods to forage blueberries, chanterelles, wild garlic, hazelnuts and more. Trade your finds at Greger Gris's little shop for flour, butter and other staples, then cook pies, soups and pancakes for your picky forest neighbours. Rasmus Räv the fox only wants blueberries!

A YEAR IN THE FOREST • Four seasons change what sprouts — plenty in summer, just a trickle in winter • Fill your larder jars in autumn and cook from them when the snow comes • Sell enough to Greger and he'll take you truffle hunting

FOREST SCHOOL Visit Ugo Uggla at the little red cottage to learn about moose, reindeer, cloudberries, Midsummer, the Sami and more. No quizzes, just curiosity — and a sticker for every card you open.

FOR LITTLE ONES TOO • "Read to me" reads recipes and school cards aloud for children who can't read yet • Play in English, Swedish, Norwegian or German

COZY BY DESIGN • No timers, no losing, no game over — animals wait patiently • No ads, no accounts, no in-app purchases, no internet needed • Nothing is collected — your game stays on your device

AND MORE • A world map to explore — Igge waddles wherever you tap • A forest that shifts between day and night • Hand-drawn, storybook-style art

Perfect for kids, and for anyone who wants five calm minutes.
