Slap Sahur

Slap Sahur is a competitive multiplayer party game developed by an independent Indonesian studio, released in 2022 for Windows and mobile platforms. The game simulates the pre-dawn meal (sahur) during Ramadan, where players control characters who must wake up, eat, and prepare for fasting while avoiding disruptions. The objective is to complete a series of timed tasks—such as consuming food, drinking water, and brushing teeth—before the Fajr prayer call ends the sahur window. Each round lasts approximately 90 seconds, with up to four players competing locally or online. The game features a cartoonish art style and a focus on chaotic, physics-based interactions. Players can select from various characters, each with unique speed and hunger attributes. The core mechanic revolves around slapping opponents to steal their food or knock them out of the eating area, thereby reducing their progress. The game ends when the timer expires, and the player with the highest food consumption score wins.

Gameplay mechanics are centered on resource management and player interference. Each player begins with a plate of food and a glass of water. The primary action is slapping, which can be used to dislodge food from an opponent’s hand or push them away from the dining table. Players must also navigate a small kitchen environment, collecting additional food items that spawn randomly. The game uses a stamina bar for slapping; each slap consumes stamina, which regenerates slowly. If a player is slapped while eating, they drop their current food item, which can be picked up by others. The round ends when the Fajr alarm sounds, and the player with the most calories consumed wins.

Operation controls differ by platform. On PC, the keyboard controls are: W, A, S, D for movement; left mouse button to slap; right mouse button to pick up or eat food; and the spacebar to drink water. On mobile, a virtual joystick on the left controls movement, while a slap button on the right triggers the attack. A separate eat button appears when near food. Gamepad support is available, with the left analog stick for movement, the A button for slapping, and the B button for interaction.

Tactical techniques include timing slaps to interrupt opponents during eating animations, which causes them to drop food. Players should prioritize collecting high-calorie items like rice or fried chicken, as they grant more points per second. Conserving stamina is critical; spamming slaps leaves a player vulnerable. A common strategy is to slap an opponent into a wall or obstacle, stunning them briefly, then quickly consuming nearby food. Defensively, players can hold food while moving to avoid easy theft, and drinking water provides a temporary speed boost. The kitchen layout includes narrow corridors where slaps are more effective due to limited dodging space.
