Welcome to the official games portfolio of The African Gourmet. This collection brings together interactive experiences that celebrate the rich foodways, symbols, and cultural heritage of the African continent. Each game is a gateway to learning, designed to educate and entertain through play. Sankofa Kitchen Where African food lives in your gaming hands A collection of games born from the African kitchen — each one a small invitation to hold a recipe, remember a scent, or learn a dish through play. ## About The African Gourmet This project is part of The African Gourmet ecosphere — a digital archive dedicated to exploring and preserving African food culture, traditions, and wisdom. These games are playdates with that archive. Visit the main site for field notes, recipes, and deeper stories from the kitchen. ## The Games ### East African Cuisine Word Search Puzzle Find the East African food dish in the grid. Words can be forward, backward, or diagonal. Play | View Code ### Recipe Rhythm A recipe flashes. Then it's gone. Ingredients float like bubbles — tap them in the right order before the memory fades. Can you hold the recipe in your head? Play | View Code ### Spice Bubbles No smell, no color — just words. Pop the right spice and a scent memory appears. Over six levels, black and white becomes beautiful chaos, and your brain starts to remember how things smell.
