History VideoGame / FoodFantasy

''Food Fantasy'' is a story-heavy gacha {{RPG}} whose gameplay revolves around two things: A GameplayAutomation battle where you aid your summoned Food Souls in battle, and a Restaurant Management game where you sell a wide variety of dishes and get lots of money. Originally released by Funtoy games in 2017 in Chinese application play stores, it was released internationally by Elex on July 20th, 2018, on the Google Play store and iOS, and later received a Japanese release on October 2018. In early 2019, a second global version for Oceania and South America was released, titled ''Food Fantasy: New Journey''.

* GameGourmet: You collect ingredients and use them to make many different dishes to serve in the restaurant portion of the game, or feed them to your Food Souls to raise your level.

* CastHerd: Some groups of food souls have their own stories and interpersonal problems. Such as Coffee, Chocolate, Milk, Black Tea and Tiramisu were once running a cafe together and Peking Duck's story connected to Hawthorne Ball, Plum Juice and Yuxiang. Doubling with OneDegreeOfSeparation because while some Food Souls aren't ''too'' connected per se, they have a connection to at least ''one Food Soul'' from the group. (For an example, Bonito Rice later finds himself helping Sanma's school before he found Raindrop Cake).

* AnEntrepreneurIsYou: Your main goal in-game is to improve your restaurant with the help of your Food Souls. Oh, and [[SaveTheWorldClimax save the world while you’re at it]].

* AndYourRewardIsClothes: Some events reward the player with a "Skin", which is an alternate appearance of a Food Soul. Equipping this would give the Food Soul a new portrait and a new outfit, sometimes including a new weapon and animations. Some skins even have UsefulNotes/Live2D animation in their art.

* CastOfPersonifications: The Food Souls are all [[OurSpiritsAreDifferent spirits]], but all of them look very human.

** During the Spring Time event, one of the rewards was a frame decorated with Cherry Blossoms.

* CombatHandFan: Crepe uses her fans as weapons- her normal attack involves whipping up tornados to attack enemies, and her power skill is her doing a fan dance as an attack.
* CombatantCooldownSystem: Most Food Souls have skill cooldowns and Casting time for skill that is not their basic skill.

* Really700YearsOld: The Food Soul's character stories all reveal that many of the Food Souls all live long to over 100 years.

* ShoutOut: Spinach is described as "[[WesternAnimation/{{Popeye}} The secret behind a sailor's strength.]]"
* SomethingAboutARose: Chocolate holds a bouquet of roses, and his Combat Skills involve roses- his normal skill has him throwing roses in the air to assist his teammates, and his power and linked skills uses the scent of roses to damage enemies.

* ThroughHisStomach: Other than battling, the other way to increase relationship value with a Food Soul is to feed them food. Each FS has a TrademarkFavoriteFood that nets them more relationship points than normal, and a favorite food that's especially well-cooked earns even more points than that.

* AndYourRewardIsClothes: Some events reward the player with a "Skin", which is an alternate appearance of a Food Soul. Equipping this would give the Food Soul a new portrait and a new outfit, sometimes including a new weapon and animations. Some skins even have UsefulNotes/Live2D animation in their art.

* AmbidextrousSprite: True for most one-eyed Food Souls, such as B-52, Peking Duck, and Cassata

* {{BFG}}: Brownie's weapon is a very large gun, which naturally deals a lot of damage.

* CircusOfFear: Featured in the 2018 Halloween Event, appropriately named the Scary Park.

* PowerEqualsRarity: In a literal sense that rarity is used as a combat ranking than the probability of getting them. As pointed out in NonIndicativeName, fighting potential is ranked in this order from lowest to highest: Mundane (M), Rare (R), Super Rare (SR), Ultra Rare (UR), and finally Special (SP).

* SpreadShot: Black Tea's power skill, Flower Blossoms, and her linked skill, Super Flower Blossoms, deals damage to all enemies via her guns.

* ThoseTwoGuys: Some skills can be used when two (or more) Food Souls are in a team together, such as Black Tea and Milk, Coffee and Chocolate, Cloud Tea and Sweet & Sour Fish, Wonton and Tortoise Jelly, and many others. Most of the link skills between the Food Souls are more focused on their connected lore with each other.

* VictoryQuote: Each Food Soul has one if they are the leader of your group.

* CherryBlossoms: Sakuramochi is a CherryBlossomGirl. During the Spring Time event, one of the rewards was a frame decorated with Cherry Blossoms. The event Sakura Falls introduced Raindrop Cake, who is associated with hydrangeas but has cherry blossoms on his umbrella. The Japanese-inspired island, Sakurajima, is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin with cherry blossom tree's abundant around the area.

* VictoryQuote: Each Food Soul Has one if they are the leader of your group.
* VideoGameTutorial: Rice, the mascot, serves as your tutorial guide for the first few levels of the story (This is despite the fact that story wise, [[GameplayandStorySegregation she hasn’t even been summoned yet!]])

* OlympusMons: Ultra Rare Food Souls were this in previous versions of the game until the Specials arrived. Still, going for URs is a more realistic prospect compared to SPs unless you have the Crystals and Embers to burn.

You, as the PlayerCharacter, had just opened your very first restaurant, and is eager to get started. On the day of your shop's opening, a random woman walks in and becomes your first customer. After complementing your food, she advises you in the way of summoning Food Souls, who would have an easier time in procuring fresh ingredients. So you do so, and of the food souls you summoned, one stood out: Rice, a food soul that could not fight. ([[ItBeganWithATwistOfFate and it all goes south from there]])

* CastOfPersonifications: The Food Souls are all spirits, but all of them look very human.

* CombatantCooldownSystem: Most Food souls have skill cooldowns and Casting time for skill that is not their basic skill.

* FissionMailed: Zig-zagged. In the first fight with Boston Lobster, it is supposed to be impossible to win. The story continues after your defeat, and his Attendant simply calls him off and leaves. However, if you ''do'' manage to win (most likely by being lucky enough to summon an Ultra Rare Food Soul), the story continues as though you had lost.

* VideoGameTutorial: Rice, the mascot, serves as your tutorial guide for the first few levels of the story (This is despite the fact that story wise, [[GameplayandStorySegregation She hasn’t even been summoned yet!]])

[[caption-width-right:350:Food Personified Around the World![[note]]Clockwise from the top: Coffee, Eggette, Strawberry Daifuku, Milk, Rice, and Chocolate. (Oh, and around a [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters hundred more unseen]])[[/note]]]]

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: There are so many different kinds of personified foods. And the event stories implies that [[AuthorAvatar the player Master Attendant]] will have a contract with them at some point ala VideoGame/GranblueFantasy where the recruitment fate episodes are noted to have been canon.

Compare ''Cuisine Dimension'' (all-female food personification game) and ''Tale of Food'' (all-male).

* NonIndicativeName: Dine-and-dash customers don't actually run off without paying, or even order anything. Rather, they just dance on one of the seats and prevent others from using it until you step in and kick them out.
