SNES - Out to Lunch Box Art FrontSNES - Out to Lunch Box Art Back

Pierre Le Chef is famed worldwide for his mouth-watering recipes involving the freshest ingredients. So, when the vegetables start attempting to run away from him, he has no choice but to chase after them. Out To Lunch is a platform game set across 6 countries, starting off in Switzerland and finishing in Paris. To recollect the vegetables he must first stun them, either by firing at them or jumping on them, then walk over them, in a manner similar to Fire & Ice. Unusually, the game was converted from the SNES to the Amiga, not the other way around.

Additional Information

One of relatively few food themed games of the post 8-bit era, Out to Lunch puts players in the role of a nutty chef trying to collect cheese, tomatoes, eggs, mushrooms, and other bouncing, jumping, and otherwise elusive lunch items. To stun a piece of food so you can catch it in your net and deliver it to a cage, simply jump on the food or knock it out with a hot sauce-induced breath of fire or other weapon. The vertical scrolling stages take players through China, Switzerland and other exotic locations, and there are several neat touches to the game, such as eggs equipped with parachutes, and skates to keep the chef from sliding on ice. With its emphasis on jumping and its cute, but challenging gameplay, Out to Lunch will appeal to fans of such games as Mappy and Kangaroo.
