Is this the same game as BTS Cooking On?

No, they are two listings. The first game, BTS Cooking On: TinyTAN Restaurant, was published by Com2uS and developed by GRAMPUS, with a global launch announced for August 7, 2024. BTS Cooking On STOVE : TinyTAN came out in May 2025, and its press release calls it "an enhanced version of the previously successful title BTS Cooking On."

The main change reported by Pocket Gamer and the publisher is integration with STOVE, Smilegate's platform for account management and community. Players can manage their accounts there and join the official STOVE community and lounge.

I could not find an official statement on whether progress, purchases or photocards carry over from the original, or whether the original is still being updated. If you played the first game, check both Google Play listings and the official community channel before spending money.

What is the gameplay like?

The store description presents a diner you run for TinyTAN's story, built around fast service in a single kitchen. These are the features it names.

• Serving and combos. You serve incoming orders quickly and chain combos. The description says speed and accuracy are the way to progress from a small diner to a world-famous restaurant.
• Cities and recipes. You travel through cities and learn local dishes. The description gives New York steaks, Paris croissants and Tokyo sushi as examples.
• Kitchen upgrades. Premium ingredients and better cooking tools improve your setup.
• Photocards. You equip each member's photocard book while cooking to collect seasonal TinyTAN photocards.
• Boosters. A "TinyTAN Time" booster is meant for tricky dishes.
• Competition and clubs. Global cook-offs, clubs you can join with a friend, seasonal World Chef Challenges and minigames.
• Story. A story about keeping Grandma's diner running, with special guests changing things partway through.

Pocket Tactics reports that the game features Jungkook and J-Hope as sous chefs, and Pocket Gamer describes the gameplay as Diner Dash-style cooking with the members in chibi form. These are descriptions of the game, not my own testing. I have not played it.

Will it run on my phone?

Google Play lists Android 8.1 or later. The listing also states that the game is not supported on Galaxy S8 or earlier models. I found no published memory, processor or storage requirements, and no independent performance tests, so I cannot say how it behaves on low-end phones.

Google Play shows whether your own device is compatible. If you use an emulator, that is a different setup from the Android release, and compatibility is up to the emulator.

Is it free? Purchases and ads

The listing says the game includes paid items and that extra charges apply when you buy them. I did not see an upfront price for installing the app, and no source I read describes the price of individual items. Prices vary by region, so check your own Play Store.

The Google Play page text I read also carried a "Contains ads" label. Because I could not confirm how ads appear in the game, check the label on your own listing.

Permissions, privacy and account

The supplied store text says no permissions are required. Push notifications are optional, and you can play if you refuse them. That is the developer's description, so check the permission prompts on your own device.

The game connects to STOVE for account management and community features, according to the publisher. I did not read the Data safety section or STOVE's privacy terms, so I cannot say what data is collected. Read them before signing in.

How to install it from Google Play

1. Open the BTS Cooking On STOVE : TinyTAN listing on Google Play on your Android device, or search the Play Store for the exact name.
2. Check the web address contains id=com.smilegate.bcos2.stove.google and the developer is Smilegate, Inc. Do not confuse it with the older BTS Cooking On listing.
3. Read the Data safety section, recent reviews and the compatibility message for your device.
4. Tap Install, then open the game and follow the account prompts.

If the game is not offered for your device or country, do not turn off Google Play Protect or install an APK from another website to get around it. I did not verify any APK file, and a file name cannot prove who built a file.

Who will enjoy it?

It may suit you if you are a BTS or TinyTAN fan who likes quick, combo-driven restaurant games with collectible photocards and seasonal events.

You may want to hold off if you want a premium game with no optional purchases, or you need confirmed details about performance and ads first. More titles are listed in the Games section of this site.
