BAKTO'S TERRIFYING CUISINE

Good day. I purchased this item as part of the "Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality," but I don't seem to be able to access the current updated version, even thought yoyur latest note in the DevLog says I should have access to it. Please advise.

Thank you!

Hi, is the original pamphlet still available for download somewhere? I'm really disappointed it's no longer available on this page.

I don't know where else to ask this but is there a discord for your games? I have a few questions about the vanilla game. 

Probably overthinking this but how do dragon breath weapons work? Are there guidelines or does the gm kinda wing it?

Damn 50% off? that's a steal

Hi,

Can you update the PDF to the last version.

Best regards and happy new year.

The shipping for the physical version for your book to the UK is more than the book costs - would you consider a UK friendly supplier so I can easily get a copy? Thank you!

Hi, I've run Bakto a few times now, thank you so much for the awesome adventure.

I recently did a game jam where I made a game - the setting and villain are strongly based on Bakto and his kitchen. :)

Thank you again!

Hello, I really enjoyed this dungeon and want to make a fan Russian translation. I wanted to get your permission to do so.

Thanks for all the food

WOW
The new edition looks incredible! 

I'm extremely interested in running this, but I'm struggling to imagine a scenario where a group of 5 starting level characters in a d20 game don't get immediately destroyed in the first encounter.

But at the same time it seems like the extreme danger of the situation is very much part of the humor.

I finally got to get this to the table and it was a blast! My players and I were cracking up all night.

This is probably my all-time favourite two-page adventure. I wrote a long-form review of it on my blog, but in brief: Five Stars!

May i upload a french translation ? Where ? Or do i give it to you ?

I loved the module, I played it yesterday evening in a one shot and we had a really great time!

And now I'd love to translate it in Italian, is it possible? Can you have your permission?

Thank you for writing it :D

I love this concept. The idea of containing a dungeon on a menu is genius. And the magical items are so weird and gross, I love it! Especially liked how each area of the kitchens was it's own little world/faction that interacted with each other and the players in different ways. 

Fully recommend this to other DMs

Ran this as a one-shot using Knave for a group of 3, and we all had a blast!

Ran this as a one shot for my group using 5E and it was an absolute blast. The players really got into the cooking part of it and even served up a fallen party member (in pie form) as part of the dish to Bakto.

Thanks for the incredible game.

Beautiful layout for an awesome and elegant design !! Really am wanting to test it !!!

I've run this twice now for two different groups. Once in Troika! and once in D&D 5E. It worked great in both systems. This little module has no business being this excellent. It has excellent atmosphere, a strong theme and clear goal, and excellent play procedures. If you are new to running more OSR-ish adventures, or just want some inspiration on crafting really tight adventures, this is the module for you.

Modified this for my Invisible Sun campaign a couple months ago and it was absolutely wild. Made Bakto into the dungeon itself, represented by a statue, to fit with the surreal fantasy themes of IS but didn't actually have to do much else - the weirdness of the dungeon fit right in. Had a player die in one hit to the Butter Golem like leechlord (IS offers some cool options for the player post-death of the PC so that wasn't /that/ bad.) The players got really into making the cuisine, figuring out how to use the ingredients in creative ways. Was a fun one-off while I was working on picking back up the main campaign after an extended absence. Would play something like this again.

The fact that this is system-neutral is awesome. I'll check if Shadowrun would be viable. I'd love to recreate the chapter 4 (Gluttony's arc) of Widdershins with this... As soon as I gather enough people.

I ran this as a high lethality somewhat slapstick adventure with my main group. We only have three players so I had each player make two alternate characters so in case of party death they could play it like a rogue-like with another set of adventurers. 

The first party split up and died nearly instantly (one player got critically hit by the butter golem), but the second run of characters worked together and managed to please Bakto.

A system-neutral, cuisine-themed adventure for your choice of d20 fantasy adventure games.

It's two pages, and there's only one piece of art, but it's a ridiculously strong one, and the adventure follows suite.

Basically, you're press-ganged into playing iron chef for a demon (which you can kill if you figure out its weird and abstract allergy,) and the adventure is about scurrying around the area and gathering ingredients to avoid his wrath. The GM also gets to narrate the whole thing as Bakto, and this adds a wonderful extra layer to the gameplay.

In keeping with the theme, everything is dripping with flavor. The monsters, treasure, ingredients, and encounters are all internally consistent, creative, and fun, and the adventure has a frantic tone to it, but shouldn't actually feel rushed due to the adventure clock being measured in 'the time it takes to fully interact with a room or run down a hall.'

Depending on what system you're using, you may have to fill in some details for monsters / items / spells. Something like AD&D or Into The Odd will probably involve the least work, whereas something like 5e might involve the most---but even then, it's not an onerous amount of labor.

Overall, I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to slot a quirky side-job into their campaign, or who wants to run a super charming, distinctive one-shot.

This is a great addition to a gaming library, and while it might torpedo the tone of a deeply serious game, it should work great in basically anything else.

Are there more pictures? I purchased the bundle but want more pics to recommend this to friends possibly.

Cooking battles have never been this intense. An exciting read and scenario! 

This is amazing, I was fortunate enough to take part in this oneshot as a player and the table had a blast! I was impressed by the creativity and the way the “final encounter” was handled. Very inspired by this, hope to see more from you all!
