The Kitchen King & Queen Coronation Quest



With our latest kitchen and food-themed update, the sheer amount of culinary decor, food, and display options is so staggering, we can't rule out the possibility of someone building a kitchen brunch spread so powerful it tears the very fabric of space-time. Hopefully it doesn't come to that, but to be sure, we're hosting a competition. The goal? To determine the ultimate King or Queen of the Kitchen Realm.

To participate, simply build your dream kitchen and fill it with delicious, artfully placed food. Then share a screenshot on our Steam hub, either in Artwork or Screenshots (pro tip: Artwork images can end up as loading screens in the game). Important: make sure you include #KitchenKraze in the image description.

Unlike traditional competitions, we'll be following the Playful rulebook of declaring everyone who participates a winner, which means you will all be crowned Kings and Queens and endowed with the gift of 150 coins.

Deadline to participate is Tuesday, July 7 at 10 am Central US time.

Let's cook!

Petey’s Eggsquisite Kitchen Kraze Update



The perfect skillet. Sunday Roast. Toast! Does this deliciousness strike your fancy? In the past few updates, we’ve gone into a bit of a frenzy cooking up new ways to spruce up your Creativerse homes with bathrooms and gardens, so it’s only logical that the kitchen came next. Also, we were hungry.


The Better Homes department has a tantalizing assortment of Sunday Brunch accoutrement, including a kitchen sink and refrigerator, both of which act as displays, an oven range that doubles as a cooking station, a coffee maker that gives you a burst of energy, a Heavenly Baked Hog that’s not only delicious but 100% calorie free. That’s not even the half of it — just scroll down to the patch notes and see what we mean. The wildest part? It’s all available in a bundle that is completely FREE (for a limited time).

This update’s mascot is Egghead, with whom you can delight and/or terrorize your friends with by picking up the outfit in the store. It’s perhaps an unconventional costume, but 2020 has been an unconventional year and we’re responding in kind. While you’re there you can pick up the Skillful Skillet, a weapon and frying pan all in one. Just be sure not to crack up while wearing the Egghead. You may end up as breakfast.

This update’s sidekick mascot is Petey, a new companion that you all voted on (if you didn’t, you need to follow us on social media more). Petey may be domesticated, but his wild counterparts from the Parroki genus aren’t, so keep an eye out for them. They’ll be spawning in a world near you.
