Evaluation

Sizzle & Stack launched on August 5, 2025. From the start, Arvis Games was explicit that more was coming: the launch post stated they were "planning new packs" and had "multi-platform plans," and the store description describes features being built for the "full version" of the game. The team followed through with a brisk update schedule in the weeks after launch — a first-week patch on August 13, 2025 adding a new in-game market and numerous fixes, then Patch 1.1.0 on August 27, 2025 adding language support and a new customer type. Their last communication was a September 29, 2025 bug fix post, which also hinted: "we've started stirring up something brand new… not ready to spill the whole recipe yet… but stay tuned." That "stay tuned" was never followed up. As of today, September 24, 2026, the developer has been completely silent since September 29, 2025 — nearly 12 months. Prior to that silence, the team was posting every 1–3 weeks. The hinted new content has not appeared, and the "new packs" promised at launch have not shipped. Outstanding commitments exist but there has been no developer communication explaining the delay or confirming whether the plans are still active.

About this game

Sizzle & Stack is a fast-paced, card-based cooking simulator where deck-building meets restaurant chaos. Inspired by Stacklands, this unique twist on the culinary genre puts you in charge of a growing kitchen where every dish, upgrade, and decision is made with cards.

Every day is a new puzzle. Stack ingredients, combine tools, manage tight spaces, and serve up delicious meals to increasingly demanding customers. Whether you're prepping a simple soup or assembling a gourmet masterpiece, timing, strategy, and resource management are your secret ingredients to success.

Here is the features that we are planning to implement in the full version of Sizzle & Stack:





Combine ingredients, tools, and stations by stacking cards in clever ways to cook up a wide variety of dishes. Master known recipes—or experiment to uncover secret ones.

Progress unlocks powerful upgrades: turn your basic Knife into a Chef’s Knife for faster prep, or expand your Table to hold more cards at once. Transform your humble kitchen into a well-oiled culinary machine.





From casual diners to stern food critics, every customer has different expectations. Keep them happy to earn tips, reputation, and rare rewards.





Spend your hard-earned coins on ingredient packs with randomized cards. Expand your setup, unlock new tools, and customize your playstyle.





Impress high-profile gourmets to earn prestigious Sizzle Medals—unlocking powerful upgrades, new mechanics, and endgame challenges.

Whether you’re just here to unwind and whip up some quick dishes or you love finding clever combos and optimizing every move, Sizzle & Stack fits your vibe. Play a short day, go all-in on a long shift, or kick back in peaceful mode—it’s your kitchen, so run it your way. 

There’s always something new to discover, whether you’re stacking for fun or cooking up a plan.

In Sizzle & Stack, every card counts—and every dish tells a story.
