Limited but fun while it lasts..

Slicing, blending, and frying is a lot of fun, although not quite as much as causing enough trouble to make Gordon Ramsey wince. Great to pick up and play to let off some steam, but don't expect that appetite to last.

Need a Distraction?

I honestly can't get enough of Cooking Simulator.

I currently own all DLCs with the latest (Shelter) being a strong favorite of mine: during the years of development, it has changed and straightened most of its frustrating bugs and performance issues, expanding over the tools and mediums they decided to go for.

I currently own all DLCs with the latest (Shelter) being a strong favorite of mine: during the years of development, it has changed and straightened most of its frustrating bugs and performance issues, expanding over the tools and mediums they decided to go for.

If you need a past time, this game is sure to fill that niche pretty decently.

Sent this back to the kitchen. would not dine there again.

Undercooked and not really what one desires when going out to eat.

Undercooked and not really what one desires when going out to eat.

Some things are probably a lot to hope for with this and maybe too much to ask. A proper cooking simulator is a pretty advanced endeavor and in many ways this is admirable in what it seems to try to venture to do (or pretend to) However what is served in CS is very chaotic and haphazard. You attempt to fix meals and have to do it at a rapid pace (a bit like a simulated version of Overcooked) you get scored and level and earn cash and othe rewards for your performance, however the game has a lot of flaws.

-I've found that there are recipes where you do not have to actually include certain ingreidents (hence faster, easier) adding them does no effect -Adding a wrong garnish (oregeno instead of parsley is my weakness) is a gruelling dissapointment to clients.

I wanted to like this more because It's a fun game to try and bork and play silly. cook them up something nasty, burn it bad, etc. see how much you can drop it on the floor and how much silly stuff you can do to something and they go 'mmm hey that not' is a bit amusing for a while. But to play this seriously its stressful and unforgiving and the jankiness causes so many problems. It's very easy to spill things out of containers for example and it can happen in ways that are just so lame. Cutting things into pieces and picking them up one by one as they jiggle around in a pot and zip out can really reallly try one's patience.

i have no idea how you actually melt and serve cheese in this game. roasted cubes that they dislike was pretty much i called it quits. enter image description here A Royale With Cheese. Or maybe nothing but?
