Once you reach this location, you will notice a cooking station in front of you. You will talk to the NPC on the station and prepare the food that you want to cook. A menu bar will appear that will have different food options. You click on the food, and it gets prepared.

The food you are master at gives you more power. For example, if food gives players a power of 300 and you are a master at it, you will get 500 power. You will keep clicking on these different food items as you want to accumulate as much energy as you can. Remember that each food has a different purpose and different power.

You can also share the food that you made in the kingdom with your friends. Five people can eat one food. However, the cooking system works differently in the familiar forest. We have mentioned the details of the familiar forest below.

Cooking in the Familiar Forest

The food here is more specific and does not contain any specific effects. You can cook in your farm’s oven using the ingredients you have grown here. The food you prepare in the familiar forest does not serve the purpose of giving you power; it is for the workers.

You prepare the food on the farm and give it to workers who need more power to continue working for you. If the workers are low on power, they will stop working. It is important for workers to work, as they help your farm to get bigger.
