A Hushdale game

In a Brazilian rodízio, the meat comes to you. Now you're the one holding the skewer.

Light the charcoal, nail every doneness, keep the drinks cold and the floor clean, ring up the bill, and do it all with up to five friends who are also, somehow, holding skewers.

  • Picanha · Medium

  • Sausage · Medium well

  • Pineapple · Caramelized

A day at the grill

  1. Light the coals

    Every day starts before the doors open. Scoop charcoal, fan the flames and get the first round of skewers going. Let the fire die and the whole service stalls.

    EFan
  2. Cut, salt, skewer

    Pull a block from the freezer, slice it on the board, season it and thread it onto the skewer with your mouse. Straight cuts and the right pinch of salt make better meat.

    Hold clickDrag down to cut
  3. Nail the doneness

    Every skewer cooks in real time: raw, rare, medium, well done and, if you look away, burnt. Watch the colour, listen to the sizzle, check the meter.

    ETake
  4. Walk the room

    This is rodízio: most tables just wait for someone to walk by. Offer the skewer and each diner takes it or passes, depending on taste, hunger and doneness. Some raise a hand for something specific.

    EOffer
  5. Slice it at the table

    Carve right onto the plate: hold the click and drag along the arrow. The closer you follow it, the cleaner the slice. A clean slice earns stars; a ragged one costs them.

    Hold clickDrag along the arrow to cut the slice
  6. Ring them up

    Type the bill on the card machine, hand back the change for cash, or show the Pixy QR code and wait for the 'ding'. Charge the wrong amount and it shows in the review.

    EUse the register
  7. Clean up, close up

    Wash the plates, mop the floor, take out the trash. Close the doors, read the day's summary (customers, revenue, costs, reviews, fame) and do it all again tomorrow.

    EMop

Doneness is the whole game

Every cut has a range the customer will love. Too early and it's still mooing; too late and it's a shoe sole.

“Meat cooked to perfection. I shed a tear.”

Everything on the menu

  • Up to six friends, one grill

    Online co-op for 1 to 6 players with Steam invites. Everything stays in sync: the fire, the meat, the money. Talk with proximity voice chat and celebrate with the emote wheel.

  • Make it yours

    Name your restaurant, design the sign out front, put your logo on the uniforms, repaint the dining room and decorate it your way. Then build your own grill master in the character creator.

  • Real Brazilian cuts

    Chuck, sausage, chicken wings, beef shank, slow-cooked beef ribs and picanha, with grilled pineapple and cinnamon to close the meal.

  • Pay your way

    Cash with change, a card machine with the occasional 'transaction declined', and Pixy, the instant QR payment that goes 'ding'.

  • Grelh OS

    The restaurant runs on a retro desktop: order supplies, buy upgrades and furniture, hire staff, read reviews, book events and pick your next property.

  • A show from the in-game Globe TV channel

    Game day

    Football on the dining-room TV and fans in team jerseys who cheer every goal for their side. Between matches, the Globe channel runs shows of its own.

  • A radio that never stops

    16 songs across Brazilian genres (sertanejo, piseiro, pagode, funk, forró, axé, samba, MPB, gaúcha and more), in sync for every player.

  • Events and surprises

    Birthdays, office parties and Father's Day lunches with themed tables and a group photo. Daily and weekly challenges. Card machine with no signal? Wet charcoal? Improvise.

  • Hire a crew

    Waiter, cleaner, grill assistants and a cashier. Train the grill assistants and the cashier to make them better.

  • A claw machine. Obviously.

    Customers play it. So can you.

  • Desserts, self-service

    Pudim and sagu on the dessert table, while they last.

  • Play your way

    Controller support with button remapping and vibration, UI scale, a colour-blind friendly doneness meter, and 50+ Steam achievements (some of them secret).

Grow from four plastic tables to the finest address in town

Each house has five levels to grow through. Earn fame and hit your goals to unlock new cuts, equipment and space, then move on to a bigger house. Your level, most of your fame, your regulars and your achievements come with you, and half of what you spent on upgrades comes back.

  1. Levels 1–5

    Neighborhood Rodízio

    Four plastic tables, a brick grill, chuck and sausage, cash only. Earn your stars, buy a card machine, renovate, hire your first hand and hang a TV for game day.

    • Brick grill and plastic chairs
    • Renovation at level 3
    • A TV for game day
  2. Levels 6–10

    Galpão Steakhouse

    A big roadside barn on the highway, with trucks rumbling past. More tables, more room, more chaos.

    • On the highway
    • Dark green walls and walnut slats
    • A dining room half again as big
  3. Levels 11–15

    Prime Steakhouse

    The best address on the avenue: an open kitchen behind glass, a wine cabinet, a lounge at the door and up to 18 tables.

    • Kitchen behind glass
    • Red, white and rosé from Sangue de Vaca
    • Oak, travertine and cognac leather

Six friends. One grill. Zero calm.

Invite friends through Steam and split the work, or don't, and watch three people fight over the same skewer. Throw things (carefully). Talk with proximity voice chat: voices come from each player's head, loud up close, gone across the room.

  • 1–6 players online
  • Steam invites
  • Proximity voice chat (open mic or push-to-talk)
  • Emote wheel

Playing solo?

The day adapts. Customers arrive more spaced out and are more patient, costs scale with the size of your crew, and you can hire staff to help.

Who walks in

  • The Regulars

    Leave someone happy and they might come back: same face, golden name above their head, favourite cut. Keep them loyal.

  • The Food Critic

    Eats alone, keeps a notebook open, orders very specific cuts. A good column in the Brasa & Sal Guide is how you earn your next house.

  • The Health Inspector

    Surprise visit, clipboard in hand. Raw meat lying around, grease on the floor, a full bin: it all counts.

  • Uncle Pavê

    He will stop you mid-service to tell you a joke. You will listen.

    “Wait, wait... is it pavê or pa-eat-it? HAHAHA!”

  • The Dine-and-Dasher

    A whistle blows: someone's running for the door without paying. Throw anything. Bonk. Collect the bill.

  • Birthday parties, office parties, game-day fans

    Big groups. Events come with themed tables and a group photo at the end; on game days the room fills with fans in jerseys.

Hire help

  • Waiter

    Brings the drinks customers ask for.

  • Cleaner

    Mops the stains off the floor.

  • Grill assistant

    Keeps the fire going and makes skewers of the cuts that are missing.

  • Cashier

    Works the register for the queue. Slips now and then (training helps); you can take over any time.

For streamers

Your chat runs the kitchen

Type your channel name into the restaurant computer and your Twitch chat joins the shift. Every few minutes viewers vote on what happens next: a charcoal shortage, a tour bus full of hungry customers, a rainstorm or a surprise health inspection. Viewers who type !bbq walk in as customers with their names over their heads, and at closing time the chat rates the day (!rate 4, or just 4).

Works in any language: !churras / !nota too.

  • Diners are drawn at random from the waiting chat: fair on big streams, not a typing race.
  • Each viewer comes in once per in-game day, and newcomers get priority on later days.
  • A big chat doesn't slow the game: viewers take over customers who were coming anyway.

No login, no tokens: the game only reads your chat. A test mode with simulated viewers lets you try it offline.
