Entire playthru for me was 85 minutes. Totally worth, what an amazing storyline. DO NOT play this game without A) a box of tissues next to you and B) some take out ready to go in the fridge. This game will make you crave biryani SO HARD

A short, very touching story about family, heritage, and good food. This made me feel like I should call my mom.

Venba is a wonderful cozy/narrative game. The story is about an indian family who did imigrate in Canada. Discover indian culture and cook various delicious recipes throught simply puzzles. The graphics are really beautiful and the soundtrack is relaxing. I really enjoyed this game, I highly recommend it!!!! 🍛🧡

Cozy casual/Narrative game in beautiful art style with a touching message about connecting with your family across generations. A nice introduction to an under-celebrated culture. It was well done, but very very short. I don't think it justifies the full price, but worth it on a sale!

Great game, great soundtrack. My favorite track is Thulludhadi Valasu. Contrary to the other reviews, i think that this game is a perfect length and i'd willingly replay it multiple times. Cooking feels fun, the story is painfully relatable if you're 2nd+ generation immigrant who feels disconnected from their ethnic background, and playing it gave me an appreciation for my circumstances that I didn't really have before.
