About Siege Kitchen
In Siege Kitchen you act as the castle cook during a thirty‑day siege, balancing limited pantry supplies against the needs of soldiers, civilians, and the wounded. Each morning you select recipes, prepare ingredients, manage heat, and serve meals that affect the fortress’s Defense, Morale, and Health.
The game loops through pantry, preparation table, hearth, and serving counter as supplies dwindle. Your choices determine whether the castle holds out until relief arrives or succumbs to hunger, low morale, or weakened defenses.
01 / THE GUIDE
Morning Meal Planning
Every day you choose what you can afford to make from stores of grain, vegetables, meat, and herbs. Selecting a recipe consumes supplies that might be needed later, so you must weigh immediate benefits against future scarcity. A better‑quality meal can improve Defense, Morale, or Health, but it costs more ingredients. Deciding which group receives the meal—soldiers, civilians, or the wounded—directly influences those three metrics.
- Compare the ingredient cost of a recipe with the potential boost it gives to a specific metric.
- Prioritize meals that address the most critical metric for the current day.

Pantry and Supply Tracking
Your pantry holds grain, vegetables, meat, and herbs, which deplete as you cook. The siege puts increasing pressure on your supplies, so you must stretch them across the thirty‑day period. Running out of a particular ingredient forces you to adjust recipes or accept lower‑quality meals, which can negatively affect the castle’s metrics.
- Monitor the remaining quantities of each food type before selecting a recipe.
- Consider simpler recipes when a key ingredient is low.

Effects on Defense, Morale, and Health
Meals influence three core stats: Defense, Morale, and Health. Soldiers benefit Defense, civilians boost Morale, and the wounded improve Health. The quality of the meal determines the magnitude of the effect. If any of these metrics fall too low, the fortress may fail before the thirty‑day limit, ending the game.
- Target the metric that is closest to a critical threshold.
- Balance meals across groups to avoid neglecting any single metric.

Thirty‑Day Siege Timeline
The siege lasts exactly thirty days. Each day presents new demands and shortages, increasing pressure on your decisions. The challenge is responding to demands and shortages as the campaign advances. Your goal is to survive until relief arrives, or face the consequences if the castle’s defenses, morale, or health fail.
- Plan ahead for the later days when supplies are scarcer.
- Adjust your strategy as the metrics shift over time.
