Humble Games is releasing an adorable-looking sushi restaurant game this June

Coming to PC and Xbox.

Humble Games has announced it has partnered with developer Catch & Release to publish the latter’s newest title: a life sim-meets-restaurant management game called Rolling Hills: Make Sushi, Make Friends.

The game sees you take control of a sushi making robot called, well, Sushi Bot, who is so adorable-looking that I’m already prepared to burn the town of Rolling Hills to the ground if it doesn’t appreciate Sushi Bot’s hard work. Aside from running the local sushi restaurant, from serving customers to cleaning up after hours, you’ll unlock new recipes, befriend the various residents, and help rebuild their town.

The premise of managing a sushi restaurant brings to mind Dave the Diver, except Rolling Hills somehow looks even more chill since you don’t have to brave the dangerous depths of the ocean to catch fish. Judging by the trailer, all the ingredients you need are available from the supermarket, and it seems said ingredients can improve certain recipes, which should make your customers happier and thus earn you more experience. You’ll also be able to fully customize and decorate the restaurant to your liking.

If Rolling Hills: Make Sushi, Make Friends is the sort of low stakes, cozy game that appeals to you, you’ll be pleased to know it’s not that far off from release. Humble Games has confirmed it will launch on June 4 for PC via Steam and Xbox One. It’ll also be available on Xbox Game Pass, so there’s no harm in subscribers at least giving the game a try. There’s no mention of a dedicated Xbox Series X|S version, but the console’s backwards compatibility means Rolling Hills should be playable on it regardless.
