The beloved RPG adventure management game, *The Tale of Food*, which features personified food characters, is set to close its doors. Initially launched in China for a closed beta in September 2019 and later distributed by Tencent Games, the game has brought joy to many players worldwide. Here's everything you need to know about the impending shutdown of *The Tale of Food*.
When Is the The Tale of Food Shutdown?
The game, where players command an army of charming, personified dishes, will officially shut down on March 20th, 2025, at 10:00 AM (UTC+8). As of today, February 18th, 2025, in-game purchases have been disabled, marking the beginning of the end. New player registrations have also been halted as of today, and the game has been removed from the Google Play Store. However, if you've already downloaded the game, you can continue playing until the servers close on March 20th.
What About the Jewels Collected in the Game?
If you purchased any jewels between January 9th and February 18th, 2025, you're eligible for a refund. To claim your refund, reach out to in-game support or email the developers before March 20th. You can find more details about the terms and conditions of the shutdown on the official X page of *The Tale of Food*.
It's worth noting that the Japan server of the game shut down in April 2023, followed by the China server in June 2024. Now, the global version is set to follow suit.
As your journey as the Food God's child, managing a realm filled with delectable dumplings and suave seafood, comes to an end, remember that the official X, Facebook, and Discord communities will remain active. These platforms will serve as a space for players to reminisce and share their cherished memories of the game.
