Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and we can’t wait to chow down on some turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes. Of course, with Thanksgiving comes a long, relaxing weekend, with plenty of time to sink your teeth into a few video games.
While some may already have plans to put more time into recent releases like Luigi’s Mansion 3, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and Pokemon Sword and Shield, others may want something a little different. Something that encapsulates the celebration of cooking a delicious meal.
Whether you’re in the mood for a game you can pick up and put down with ease, or return to again and again, we’ve got you covered. Below, we’ve put together a list featuring our picks for the tastiest games that revolve around (or otherwise incorporate) food!

Cooking Fever
To kick off this list, we felt it was only right to mention Cooking Fever and plethora of related games available on mobile. Whether you own an Android or iPhone, you’ll find the “cooking” genre to be packed to the brim with content. If you want to tune out all of the family bickering around the dinner table this Thanksgiving, try installing Cooking Fever on your phone.
What’s nice about this game is that it offers simple, repetitive food prep gameplay that builds in difficulty over time. Each round is also short enough to where you can finish up what you’re doing before you put your phone down should someone say something to you about the need to spend “quality time” with family.
Heck, you can even play a few rounds while you wait for the turkey to finish cooking! While mobile games often lack depth, they’re a great way to help pass the time, especially if you’re playing titles like Cooking Fever.
