Chopsticks
Launches 3 November 2026 · PC

Story
The punishment was a bowl of dry rice, an empty bowl, and chopsticks. Chopsticks is a small, quiet game about moving rice from one bowl to another, one grain at a time. The sticks are pushed around by real forces and every grain you can touch is its own little body, so each pinch has to be earned. Knock a bowl over and everything in it, finished rice included, is back on the counter. Five runs The tower: one grain, set on top of a wobbly stack. A quick run, and the place to learn. 100, 1,000 and 10,000 grains: empty one bowl into the other, grain by grain. Sort 10,000: black and white rice mixed in one pile, sorted to either side of the mat. Twenty challenges Small set pieces on the same counter, each with a twist of its own: a claw machine that leaves you only the button, a sushi train, bowling with kokeshi dolls, a round of rice golf, a buzz wire, a sleeping baby who wakes at the third clink, and a fly to catch with your chopsticks. Finish one for bronze, beat its times for silver and gold, and earn sets you can't get any other way. Against the clock A clock on the wall times every run. It stops while you pause, and the game pauses by itself if you Alt+Tab away or open...
