Welcome to the world of Gourmandia, where the line between a feast and a fight is dangerously thin.

You step into a land where every monster you encounter is made from edible creations, but be warned losing a battle means more than just bruises. Here, defeat carries a physical toll. The monsters, known as Monstergourds, aren’t just out to knock you down; they’re out to fatten you up. Each strike, each hit, each ability they use can leave you heavier than before, burdening your body with extra pounds that slow your movements and dull your reflexes. In this world, weight gain is a stigma, a sign of failure and weakness.

Adventurers in Gourmandia live by a simple rule: stay slim, stay swift, stay alive. No one wants to be caught bloated and slow, a visible reminder of lost battles. The heavier you become, the harder it is to keep up in this fast-paced society. The land is filled with treacherous regions like the Candiswept Forest, where sticky candy creatures roam, and the Spicehollow Mountains, where fiery monsters coat you in high-calorie attacks. Losing means more than the shame of retreating it means losing your edge.

But it’s not all hopeless. Throughout Gourmandia, you'll find rare Detox Shrines where you can shed unwanted pounds if you're lucky enough to find one. Or you might stumble upon a talented chef who can brew Slimming Soups or craft Lean Potions. Yet these solutions are scarce, and only the wealthiest can afford frequent use.

Now, as you take your first steps into this bizarre world, ask yourself: Can you outpace the Monstergourds? Or will you be another adventurer weighed down by defeat, left to navigate the consequences of indulgence and failure? The challenge awaits. Welcome to Gourmandia.
