Are you ready to jump into a high-glycemic adventure?
In Sweet Cherry Pie VS Evil you will play as a Warrie, a warrior made up of yeast and eggs, milk and flour, but also steel (or very hard sugar) and courage. That same courage needed to defeat the Gluttonies, hungry demons threatening Omnom Island.
You got it right: in this fantasy RPG, the characters are cupcakes, lemon cakes, tiramisu and cream puffs. But don’t be fooled by their diabetic appearance, because Omnom Island has given them the strength and powers they need to defeat Evil, no matter how hard their teeth are!
Sweet Cherry Pie VS Evil Corebook includes:
- Background and Geography of Omnom Island;
- Character Creation, with a cookbook of twelve lineages to choose from
- Rules (obviously);
- Bestiary.
Insulin not included.

SWEET CHERRY PIE VS EVIL – THE SETTING
“The RPG Frowned upon by 9 out of 10 Dentists”
The game takes place on Omnom Island, including locations such as the Landyfloss, the Sucrises, the Marzivilles and so on. Omnom Island is inhabited by the Noms, beings born from the skilful blend of flour, yeast, eggs and secret ingredients.
Each Nom lives in harmony, feeding and being fed by the sugary earth that gave them life… at least until the arrival of Evil.
In fact, one ominous day, Omnom Island was invaded by the Gluttonies, demons with only one purpose: to devour everything, with a predilection for the Noms.
And only then, instead of hiding in ovens or freezers, some Noms decided to take on the role of Warrie, protectors of Omnom Island devoted to annihilating Evil.
SWEET CHERRY PIE VS EVIL – GAME SYSTEM
“The Only Complexity lies in the Carbohydrates”
The rules of Sweet Cherry Pie VS Evil are as simple as breaking an egg (intentionally or not).
First of all, the game does not use dice (let’s leave the cubes for the stock). In fact, checks are carried out by randomly opening the pages of the corebook, each of which has a frame called Scoop, detailed with the check outcome: What a Mess! (critical failure), Does Not Look Good (failure), It’s Still Good! (success but…) and Yummy! (success).
The outcome of a check can also be modified by spending Ingredient Fragments, namely the stats that make up the Character.
- Leavening/Combativity
- Butter/Wits
- Eggs/Endurance
- Sugar/Wisdom
- Milk/Willpower
Depending on the outcome, the character may decide to spend a certain number of Fragments of the relevant Ingredient to gain a bonus, moving the Scoop to the desired result.
Ingredient Fragments are also used to attack, cast spells and… stay alive. In fact, when three of a Character’s Ingredient Fragments reach 0, they meet an inevitable death.
COMBAT
During combat, each character can perform an action in turn. However, opponents don’t follow the same sequence; they attack only after all characters have made their actions, with a penalty based on how much damage they have taken during the turn.
SCOOP ALTERNATIVES
Don’t want to use the Scoop, maybe ‘cause you don’t want to ruin your precious corebook? Or are you not in a position to pass it on to your fellow adventurers? In that case you can roll 1d8 and compare the result with the conversion table provided.
