Cold Shift: Vkusno

About this Game

Set against the backdrop of a bleak city ravaged by cold rains and dim neon, the player takes on the role of Sanечка, an underpaid worker struggling to survive grim nights inside the shadowy fast-food diner 'Vkusno i Tochka'. Navigating the moody, pixelated labyrinth of the diner, kitchen, and cluttered warehouse, Sanечка must balance mundane tasks with acts of quiet rebellion, dodging hostile managers, angry customers, and mischievous children. The story unfolds through tense encounters with three distinct NPCs, each offering glimpses of life outside—the forests fringing the city, distant towns, and the looming castles that echo the lost grandeur of better times. Through careful choices, stealth, and skill, players must endure workplace pressures while seeking small moments of hope or escape amidst the gloom. Urban survival merges with dark workplace drama, creating a metroidvania-inspired experience where every shift could be Sanечка's last.
