But even more proof that this is the year, a pretty great hint comes from Anatoly. Also, the only electronic device seen is the radio, and the main character says one of the four must have brought in. (Britannica) There are other small hints towards it being set around this time, showing both traditional clothing as well as the new influence of western E u pn fashion (men wearing tucked in shirts) and mass production of clothing. They escaped U cral ne as they say throughout the game, in search of food, and were hiding from the government in the mountains. I believe this illustrates why our four characters are traveling along the Tatra Mountains, historically known for being used for unapproved border crossing. It was outlawed for peasants to search for food outside of the country. This fa mlne raged from 1932-1933, and has documented results in peasants even turning to can niba lism. So when is it set? 1933, during the peak of, or directly after Holo mo dor, a man-made (time of no food) in that country. It is important to note that the time period of the game influences the map of this region.

Several times the four characters mention leaving U cral ne (directly to the east of those countries). Where and When is the game placed?*It's clearly shown throughout the game that this is inspired by and set in eastern E up, the developers even state this and place it in the Tatra Mountains (Game description on Steam), which border P lnd and Sl v kia.

Okay, to get to the good stuff first, these are the questions my theories are based around. I quickly realized there is soooo much more to this game than initially meets the eye! (Perfect for theorizing about!) I have complied a lot of notes and am still working on research, but here is some of what I have so far. Watching cooking companions got me so invested in the game and story, there's so much to it and the developers did an amazing job with it! So I couldn't wait and played the game myself, watched other play throughs, and all of the official endings. Hi, this is my first post, it's some of my findings and theories about Cooking Companions!! Be warned this will definitely include spoilers for the game so if you want to wait and watch matpat finish playing on gtlive first then don't read anymore!
