Corner Bites | HTML5 Merge Game

Corner Bites – World Food Tour: a Cozy Merge-and-Serve HTML5 Game

Open a little counter in seven cities, merge dishes into full menus and serve hungry customers before their patience runs out.

Welcome to Corner Bites, a complete and cozy merge game built with plain JavaScript. Zoe finds her Grandpa Remo’s old recipe book and a stack of postcards: cook the Golden Dish at the World Street Food Festival in New York, but first open a counter in Paris, London, Barcelona, Rome, Istanbul, Tokyo and New York. Customers walk in from the left and wait at your counter with an order ticket and a green patience bar. Tap a machine for a piece, merge two equal pieces into a better dish, and tap the piece with the green check to serve: a burger becomes a burger plate, then a meal tray with fries and a cola, then the full menu.

Every day ends with a report and stars, every city brings a new twist and a new menu, and the seven postcards you collect along the way are puzzles you can put together. The story has a beginning, a middle and an ending in New York, and the counter stays open for free play afterwards.

Game Features:

• Window on the City, every counter looks out on its own landmark: the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, the Sagrada Familia, the Colosseum, the Galata Tower, Tokyo Tower and the Statue of Liberty
• Customers with Patience, people walk in from the left, order one to three dishes and leave without paying when the green bar runs out
• Merge Menus, nine dish chains of six levels each; a dish grows from a raw ingredient to a plate to a full menu tray, always fitting its square cell
• 56 Days, 7 Cities, every city adds a rule: supply crates, frozen pieces, VIP guests, waves of customers, three-dish bento orders
• Combo and FEVER, quick serves in a row build a combo, a full combo starts a FEVER with double tips and no waiting
• End-of-Day Reports, served and lost customers, coins, tips, best combo, stars and Chef XP after every day
• Recipes to Unlock, a recipe book with 54 dishes and new recipes at the start of the days; the machines make richer dishes as the tour goes on
• Chef Level and Upgrades, five shop upgrades (seats, patience, lucky hands, tips, pantry), level-up gifts and a pantry shelf
• Lucky Wheel, a free spin every ten minutes (one waiting at a time) and one for every finished city
