The Dirty Spatula is a 1-6 player cooperative game where players have seven days to discover and bake a hidden Royal Recipe. Each day moves from strategic Prep into a frantic, time pressured Mixing phase, followed by Baking and Admin phases. You’ll need to shop for better ingredients and use unique character abilities to stay ahead of the game. But be careful: mistakes lead to "Messiness," and if your kitchen gets too messy it's game over. You must successfully bake three unique recipes to even learn what the Princess wants—then race against the Day 7 deadline to deliver the perfect cake and win the royal competition.
