Cellar

Description

Run a cheese cave as its mouse cellarmaster. Wheels age in real time: sell them young, or wait and they are worth up to five times as much. Nothing ever spoils.

• Turn the wheels when they ask, for a little more worth.
• Each shelf has its own air: Cheddar likes it cool, Cellar Blue damp.
• Hire Pip and Moss, who keep working while you are away.
• Notes at the grating: callers pay well over worth for one particular cheese.
• Dig deeper for cheeses that take hours, a night, or three days.
• The County Show every Sunday.
• Sell the cellar for reputation, then build machines and found house cheeses of your own.

AI use: the pictures were made with AI image tools from our own art direction, then cut, arranged and lettered by hand; the code and text were written with AI help. Music and sound effects are not AI-made.
