Hot Plates
I’ve looked a long time for a good cooking game. I finally thought I found it when I discovered Overcooked. But I soon realised OC is primarily based on a good ‘fun with friends’ coop title. Which is fine n dandy dandy n fine but missin certain aspects I wanted to play in a cooking game.
The description on the Store page of HP convinced me that some (not all) of my desired missin aspects were fulfilled. So I purchased this ridiculously cheap title.
ATM HP is buggy. Graphical glitches here n there, equipment appearin, disappearin & lackin optimisation. But in sayin that its very playable.

For me the controls took some getting used to and sometimes I still struggle to target exactly what I want. After the first few days it can get pretty hard to keep up with orders and you will run out of supplies a lot. I recently restarted my cafe so I haven’t gotten really far in the game yet and I’m hoping there’s upgrades that make things easier in the future. I am enjoying it so far but it’s not as casual as I expected a cooking game to be mostly because of the controls. At $5 it’s certainly worth a try if you enjoy cooking/restaurant management games.

Diner Bros
(D)iner (B)ros is similar to (O)ver(C)ooked. Its good to play but I did not find DB as fun has OC. Even in SP OC was fun. However the more players the better which I suppose is true with DB too. (supports four players & controllers) The fires in OC were funny - running around with the fire extinguisher & the levels were fun too. DB’s a little stepped back from fun. It’s very playable & does have some neat tricks of its own. For example varieties of items, foods, drinks, etc can be purchased with one off payments as you progress. They are then added the same day to the one Restaurant you keep which begins to expand & increases in challenges. No decoration or purchasable furniture is available.

Diner Bros is a solid and highly enjoyable experience. Personally, I actually think this game is more enjoyable than Overcooked for 1 big reason: very little gimmicks.
Overcooked is a great game, but is unfortunately majorly held back at times by it’s ridiculous kitchen structure. Overcooked lacks any kind of consistency, and while it is interesting being placed in all kinds of odd situations, it doesn’t totally allow you to experience the joy of cooking in a well constructed kitchen outside of the early tutorial levels.
