    Strange things seem afoot below the surface in Town of Zoz, peculiarties surrounding Ito, their family, and the town itself that will need to be uncovered in order to truly become a shaman chef and provide aid to all those who need or ask of it. These deeper mysteries and secrets add a subtle flavour note of intrigue to the enticing, homemade recipe that makes up Town of Zoz, encouraging players to keep going, keep engaging with the world and its gameplay loop, in a wonderful way. Even with a slow simmer to begin, and some prepwork that takes some adaptation, Town of Zoz is sure to have players cleaning their plates and asking for seconds.

    Town of Zoz leaves a lasting impression by centering culture, community, and connection in a vibrant adventure that’s easy to get lost in.
