Cooking Fever, one of the most popular time management games with over half a billion downloads, celebrated its 10th anniversary last Friday, September 5th, with a special event in Vilnius, Lithuania. Nordcurrent, the game’s developer, organized an exciting burger stacking competition, where professional chefs competed to break the Guinness World Record. At the event, Paulius Staliorius, chef at Drama Burgers, surpassed the previous record of 8 burgers by stacking 11 in just 60 seconds, setting a new milestone in culinary history.

The event brought together renowned chefs like Karolis Čygas, who competed against Staliorius, and representatives from Meat Busters restaurant, Sergej Kozlov and Arvydas Kieras. Staliorius shared his experience: "I practiced a few times at work, so I knew I could stack more than 8 burgers. I was nervous, but once the countdown started, I focused on the process." The burgers were assembled in a sequence of bun, patty, tomato, and lettuce, and the record was officially recognized by a Guinness World Records representative.

Nordcurrent, always seeking ways to innovate and surprise its players, brought the action from Cooking Fever's virtual world to reality, turning the event into a true culinary spectacle. Victoria Trofimova, head of the studio, commented on the celebration’s success: "Cooking Fever has always been more than just a cooking simulation – it’s a community of passionate players. By attempting to break the Guinness World Record, we showed how the boundaries between a mobile game and reality can disappear."

The event was complemented with various attractions, including food trucks and interactive stations, where guests could experience a bit of the Cooking Fever universe. The festive atmosphere reflected the essence of the game, which blends fast-paced management with culinary creativity. This celebration was another example of how the game transcends screens, impacting both the gaming world and global food culture.

For fans, the celebrations continue. Until the end of September, players can enjoy the new "Party Palace" restaurant, where they can experiment with a variety of dishes and a new drawing mechanic. With cakes, tacos, and sandwiches, Cooking Fever promises more fun and innovation in its 10th anniversary, solidifying its status as a landmark in the gaming and entertainment industry.
