Family Dinner
About this game
You've probably been there - the holiday family dinner that slowly chips away at your sanity. That kind of awful-but-nostalgic experience, you know?
Take a masochistic trip down memory lane and relive all the awkward moments and infuriating relatives in Family Dinner. In this narrative-driven experience, you'll actually get to resolve those unresolved family dramas at the dinner table.
But don't take too long! Complete all your missions and escape before your social battery runs out.
This game includes:
Your hot-and-cold disaster of a college sister
Big bro, aka Mama's boy
An inappropriate uncle
Your mother's theatrics
Some cake
A few cats
…and more
Estimated playtime: ~20 minutes.
Steam Deck Compatibility: Family Dinner is playable on the Steam Deck. To play, you'll need to remap the "Enter" key to a controller button through Steam's controller configuration. We're working on native controller support in a future update, but the game is fully functional with this simple setup.
