A Tasty Game...Or Not? Trivia Quiz

Answer:

As a video game novice, I was surprised to learn while researching this quiz just how many food-themed video games exist! Considering how much we love food, perhaps it's not so unusual. These are just a selection of those that exist.

"Chocolatier", first released in 2007, is set in the 1800s and involves collecting recipes to create truffles. "Diner Dash" was first released in 2003, and has since seen many versions and editions; it follows Flo, a diner owner. "Campfire Cooking" (2017) is a puzzle game that has players positioning campfire treats in the right areas to cook properly, while "Cake Mania" involves completing orders for various cakes at a bakery. The "Imagine" series created "Imagine: Master Chef" in 2006, and revolves around cooking lessons from chef Rachel Jones. In "Overcooked" (2016), players control kitchens to prepare dishes on time. "Cooking Mama" was first released in 2006, and since then has become a food-themed favorite; not surprisingly, Mama instructs players on cooking! "Candy Crush Saga" is another popular game, involving making the correct combinations of candy to win points.

The last two correct options were released by food franchises. "Taco Bell: Tasty Temple Challenge" was released in 2000 to promote the fast food chain; Baja Bill quests for the ultimate meal. Although "Doritos Crash Course" is about an obstacle course, the Doritos branding still makes it food-themed.

Whew! Hungry now? Why not go cook up a real meal? Or, if you must, go play a video game instead.
