I Want Pizza

I Want Pizza: Fun-Filled Pizza-Making Simulation for Casual Creativity

I Want Pizza is a vibrant, family-friendly casual simulation app that lets you craft custom pizzas from scratch—mixing dough, layering toppings, and baking to perfection—ideal for kids, food lovers, and anyone craving quick, stress-free creative fun.

What is I Want Pizza?

Forget complex cooking games—this app simplifies pizza making into joyful, hands-on steps that feel like playing with virtual playdough. You start with a blank dough base: roll it into classic round, square, or even star shapes, spread tangy tomato sauce (or creamy garlic white sauce), pile on cheeses (mozzarella, cheddar, parmesan), and add toppings from pepperoni and mushrooms to quirky options like pineapple or jalapeños. The best part? A realistic baking mini-game: slide your pizza into the oven, adjust the temperature, and watch the cheese melt and crust turn golden—burn it, and you’ll get a silly “charred pizza” joke instead of a penalty. The interface is bright and intuitive: big, tap-friendly buttons for kids (no tiny icons) and colorful visuals that make every step feel rewarding. It’s perfect for 5-minute play sessions—whether you’re keeping a kid entertained in a waiting room or unwinding with a “virtual snack” after work.

iOS vs. Android differences: Android has 3 extra dough shapes (e.g., dinosaur) not yet available on iOS

Development Team

I Want Pizza is created by Dough & Cheese Games, a small indie studio based in Lisbon, Portugal, specializing in “playful food apps” for families. The team of 4 developers and artists started with a goal: make cooking feel fun, not intimidating, for kids. Before this, they built I Want Burger (a 2023 hit with 300k+ downloads) and used parent feedback to refine I Want Pizza—adding bigger buttons and removing all in-app purchases to avoid “paywalls for fun.” They test every feature with kids ages 4–10 to ensure controls are easy, and visuals are bright enough to hold attention without being overwhelming.

Competitive Products

Pizza Maker Story: Has a linear “restaurant story” but requires complex menu management (too stressful for young kids)

Cooking Mama: Pizza: Features a cartoon host but limits creativity (fixed topping combinations, no custom dough shapes)

Pizza Delivery Simulator: Focuses on driving/ delivering, not making pizzas (minimal creative input)

Toca Kitchen 2: Lets you cook multiple foods but has limited pizza-specific details (no baking temperature control)
