So, funny story, the Sword World Cookbook is the add-on with the most pledges (by far) - and that wasn't something we expected. In fact, Shawn and Ai didn't think this add-on would get unlocked at all! Over 1400 of you have proved us wrong and made this a reality, so we want to make sure it includes options you would like to see.
📖Sword World Cookbook Lore
This cookbook is planned as a physical soft cover item. In the original Japanese version, there is a cookbook booklet that is an included component in the Sword World 2.5 RPG Box Set: Grand Railway Festival Banquet. The game takes place in the city of Kingsfall, a metropolis famous for "railways, festivals, and food." The players' main campaign revolves around adventuring across the land to hunt down monsters and gather rare ingredients to complete a special full-course festival menu. The booklet features in-universe recipes and flavor text for the 12 unique fantasy dishes featured throughout the box set's missions. Here's an example of what those recipes look like: These are all modeled out so you could theoretically recreate them using real-world substitute ingredients like pork or wild boar. We are definitely wanting to include some, if not all of these recipes, translated, in the cookbook. We also want to add in the drinks from our in-person Sword World launch party that our friends at the Cardboard Corner Cafe created.
🧋What Would You Like to See?
All of that said, what would YOU like to see in the Sword World cookbook? We'll need to get everything approved by Group SNE before we produce it. Should we add Vegan options? Perhaps we could request some recipes from Group SNE's Game Cafe, Alcheringa, the official flagship store/café where fans can gather to play, purchase new releases, and participate in special TTRPG events hosted by Group SNE's actual game designers. Nothing is off the table at this time.
