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

Fans of *The Tale of Food*, the innovative RPG adventure management game where you command an army of charming, personified dishes, will need to brace for a bittersweet farewell. Initially launched for a closed beta in China in September 2019 and later distributed by Tencent Games, this unique game is set to shut down. Here’s everything you need to know about the *The Tale of Food* shutdown.

When Is the The Tale of Food Shutdown?

The game will officially cease operations on March 20th, 2025, at 10:00 AM (UTC+8). As of February 18th, 2025, in-game purchases have been disabled. Additionally, new player registration has been closed as of today, and the game has been delisted from the Google Play Store. However, if you've already downloaded the game, you can continue playing until the servers close on March 20th.

What About the Jewels Collected in the Game?

If you purchased any jewels between January 9th and February 18th, 2025, you are eligible for a refund. You can request this by contacting in-game support or emailing the developers before March 20th.
