"Food Souls RPG 'The Tale of Food' to Shut Down"

The enchanting world of *The Tale of Food*, the RPG adventure management game that brought personified dishes to life, is sadly coming to an end. Initially launched for a closed beta in China in September 2019 and later distributed by Tencent Games, this unique game allowed players to command an army of charming, anthropomorphic foods. But now, the culinary adventure is winding down. Read on to discover everything you need to know about the impending shutdown of *The Tale of Food*.

When Is the The Tale of Food Shutdown?

Mark your calendars: *The Tale of Food* is set to officially close its servers on March 20th, 2025, at 10:00 AM (UTC+8). As of today, February 18th, 2025, in-game purchases have been disabled to prepare for the shutdown. Additionally, new player registrations have been halted, and the game has been removed from the Google Play Store. If you've already downloaded the game, you can continue playing until the servers go offline on March 20th.

What About the Jewels Collected in the Game?

If you purchased any jewels between January 9th and February 18th, 2025, you're eligible for a refund.
