Story:

Today's the big day-It's the Culinary Academy of Magic's final graduation exam.
You're about to challenge your school's final practical exam by using your magical cauldron and wand to complete several magic realm dishes inside a designated cooking area.

However, on your way to the exam, you accidentally step on a blue flower, covering you in its pollen.

The flower's name is "Forget-Me-Do".

Alas, it is a mysterious flower that causes those who come in contact with its pollen to lose their most important memories at that moment.
Because of that, you've forgotten everything you studied for the exam!!
Your only ray of hope is your class notes that you can bring into the exam.

Can you overcome this adversity and pass the final exam to graduate from the academy?

Rack your brain and serve up otherworldly dishes with your magic!
