Hungry little demons have invaded your neighborhood! They're up to their usual mischief, and it doesn't look like they'll stop until they're fed. The only way to protect your belongings and get them out of your house is to cook them a meal of their choosing. Head into the Shifting Forest to gather the ingredients you need for your culinary countermeasure, but be careful—the forest has a mind of its own. Hungry Little Demons is a competitive memory game for 2-6 players where you play as both the hero and the villain. You’ll move your chef through the ever-changing layout of the Shifting Forest to look for and gather ingredients for your recipes, collect Demon Bait to protect your furniture, and even meet with some of the helpful Wood Sprites who call the Shifting Forest home. At the same time, you’ll command your demon to destroy furniture, make mischief, and generally just be a nuisance until it’s been fed. The game ends when a player completes at least one of their recipes and gets their chef back to their house. Points are then scored based on recipes completed, ingredients gathered, furniture destroyed, and demons remaining in your chef’s house. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
