How to play
The opening quest teaches each system when it matters. This guide is here whenever you want the full picture.
1. Craft your first truffles
Tap Craft beside Chocolate Truffle. Each completed batch adds chocolates to your inventory and coins to your balance. Early batches are intentionally simple: make, earn, and improve.
2. Improve a chocolate
Improvements raise that chocolate’s coin earnings. The amount selector cycles through x1, x5, x10, the next milestone, and the maximum you can afford. Milestone levels provide larger value jumps.
3. Use Helping Hands
Pull down on the Craft page to reveal the large truffle button. Each tap removes time from active batches. Helping Hands upgrades make every tap stronger.
4. Hire bakers
Once you have enough coins, hire the named baker for a chocolate. That recipe then runs automatically and its Craft button becomes an Improve button. Bakers continue earning during normal play and for a limited period while you are away.
5. Follow quests
The main quest introduces major mechanics and recipes in sequence. The Quest Board opens later with three optional, untimed orders. Rewards never require watching an advertisement or making a purchase.
6. Discover chocolates
New base recipes arrive through progression rather than guessing. In the Kitchen, ingredients mix and pour into the newly discovered chocolate. Locked future recipes remain hidden until relevant.
7. Build a collection
Your Collection displays every discovered chocolate in a permanent order. Rare signature chocolates may be placed into active slots for disclosed perks. Duplicates provide fragments toward a guaranteed choice.
8. Expand when you choose
Maison Expansion restarts the current run in exchange for permanent Cocoa Stars and compounding advantages. The preview shows what resets and what remains. You can expand immediately or keep earning for a stronger reward.
Useful tip
There is no single required playstyle. Frequent taps accelerate active sessions; thoughtful upgrades and bakers reward relaxed idle play. A mixture of both works well.
