One More Plate! Wins Best Gameplay at gamescom asia x Thailand Game Show

Indie physics-based party game One More Plate! has officially taken home the award for Best Gameplay at gamescom asia x Thailand Game Show. The award highlights a chaotic title where players must serve meals to hungry Glutton Monsters before the creatures decide to put the kitchen staff on the menu instead.

Look, I love any game where employee survival is treated as an optional workplace perk, and One More Plate! leans right into that eerie, high-stress energy. The core premise puts you in charge of feeding "Shape Buddies" to a terrifyingly greedy roster of monsters. If you mess up too many orders or let your tray wobble off course, your shift—and your character's life—is officially over. It gives off that exact brand of panicked co-op tension where one small mistake triggers absolute structural collapse.

The details

• Award: Winner of Best Gameplay at gamescom asia x Thailand Game Show.
• Core Mechanics: Catch, balance, and throw food to fill monster orders using physics-driven controls.
• Serving Tools: Trays include standard kitchen items like ladles and buttery croissants, as well as absurd gear like giant legendary swords.
• Physics System: Every plate carries unique shape, friction, weight, and bounce stats that alter how items handle.
• Modes: Features a solo campaign, local co-op, local versus, and support for Steam Remote Play Together.

How does the gameplay work?

According to the official game details, every single item in One More Plate! strictly obeys physics—even when nothing else in the kitchen wants to cooperate. Players are tasked with reading incoming orders from the Glutton Monsters, catching the appropriate food items, and stabilizing them long enough to execute a throw across the room.

The challenge stems directly from your choice of serving gear. Delivering a meal on a basic tray is straightforward enough, but the game quickly forces you to balance orders on unconventional objects like baked goods or massive weapons. Because each object features distinct friction, weight, and bounce characteristics, even a level you feel confident in can instantly spiral into pure physical disaster if your angle is slightly off.

What game modes are available?

The title offers multiple ways to tackle its high-stakes shifts. Players can take on the main campaign solo if they want to manage the monster orders entirely on their own, or bring in extra help through local co-op.

For those who prefer direct competition, the local versus mode pits players against each other to see who can satisfy the monsters faster. While multiplayer focuses on local play, support for Steam Remote Play Together allows friends to jump into co-op or versus sessions online.

Why it matters

Physics-driven party games rely entirely on tight controls and unpredictable emergent moments to keep players hooked. Securing the Best Gameplay award at gamescom asia x Thailand Game Show gives One More Plate! a prominent showcase in the indie multiplayer space. One More Plate! is scheduled to be released on November 10, 2026.
