About this game

MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED - Exclusive to Crunchyroll Mega and Ultimate Fan Memberships

inbento is a chill pattern-matching puzzle game where you prepare Japanese lunch boxes (bento) while enjoying a cute story about parenthood and growing up.

Recreate over 120 puzzling recipes, master tricky mechanics and learn about the life of the kitten family as you pour your love into the food you create.

SOLVE THE RECIPES
In each puzzle you start with a limited number of ingredients and a picture of the final result - rotate, move and insert the food in the right order to rediscover the original recipe and make a delicious dish!

A HEARTWARMING STORY
Finishing each chapter will reward you with interactive illustrations offering glimpses into the life of a cat family and the ups & downs of parenthood.

120+ MEALS TO PREPARE
Over the course of the game you will encounter new mechanics that allow you to swap, remove and copy ingredients in order to make the puzzles more exciting!

ZERO UNDERSTANDING OF COOKING REQUIRED
You don’t need to be a pro chef to play inbento - the game’s relaxed pace and textless tutorial will offer all the guidance you need to have a great time!

** 1st place in The Big Indie Pitch @ PGA 2019 **

What game makes you get a subscription to a different app? What a joke. You don't need a subscription to access "certain features". You need it to access the game period.

At this point just make people buy the game, downloaded it only to find out that you need a 12 dollar subscription to play it. What a joke. (Edit post their response : You can buy this exact game for less than $2CAD on steam, not worth the subscription. Period.)

Wish I could play the game, but instead, just leaves me stuck in log in screen. Edit: Contacted Crunchyroll Support. After explaining my issue, tried to remedy the issue, just so I can at least try the game, but still left on a log in screen, this time, without any chance to log in.
