ONE SWIPE. MAKE IT COUNT.

A bigger slice.
A better deal?

The biggest piece is not always the best. Cherries, frosting and sprinkles add value. Burnt patches take it away. Read the cake before you cut.

  1. 01

    Make one cut.

    Swipe straight across the cake, tap two points, or use the keyboard. Split the toppings as well as the sponge.

  2. 02

    They choose first.

    Crumb, the openly labelled practice bot, loves a big-looking piece. In Recipe Duel, the other player chooses.

  3. 03

    Explain this slice.

    You keep the other piece. The reveal shows both plates and the actual bite values. A fair split can be a shared success.

FOUR CAKES. TWO SUSPECTS.

Your earlier slices
come back for seconds.

Recipe Duel keeps your cherries and frosting between rounds. Collect 2½ cherries and 1½ frosting roses for a 40-bite recipe bonus. Suddenly the smaller piece might win the whole match.

Pass the phone.

Two players share one device. Alternate cutting and choosing across four cakes, then demand a rematch.

Keep your friends close.

After your first round, open FRIENDS for your shared Tarboush name, requests and who is playing. FRIENDS does not turn Recipe Duel into online multiplayer.

Just a little cake break.

Play solo practice at your own pace. Sound is optional. No account is needed to start; shared Friends is optional.
