Hot Pot For One
It’s mostly about loneliness, very, very short, and easy to misunderstand. By most standards, it would be barely a game at all. But if you don’t have expectations this thingy never tried to meet, it is kinda… nice. You stand in the kitchen, cook, eat, and for every piece you eat, memories start floating up, showing how food connects you to people, mostly your significant other. You eat rather little, clean up a bit and watch the end titles. There are no other people, no movement, no action, and if you were depressed to start with, you are not going to feel less depressed. But you may recognize the feeling.

The good:
-
Nice atmosphere
-
Music is sweet
The bad:
-
Boring as hell
-
Story isn’t worth it because there is none.
-
Art made for the “memories” you get when you eat a piece of food are just crudely drawn stickmen.
-
All that stuff in the fridge and cupoards? You can’t touch it. I was expecting to have the ability to get silly and pour coke into my hotpot. Nope.
You turn it on, put stuff in it that doesn’t burn (so it’s no fun), eat only a set number of food from it that makes you think about ugly stickmen, put a tiny amount away in a large fridge and then dump over 150 food items into the bin.

Diner Mania
Diner Mania is what it sounds like, a combination of Diner Dash and Cake Mania. As far as content goes, Diner Mania is bare bones, offering only the most minimal of content a game of this genre can present. The storyline is fairly straightforward: A string of family friendly restaurants are driven out of business by rowdy bikers who vandalize, terrorize, and refuse to pay their bill, leaving only the owners of the Italian restaurant in charge of helping rid their town of the biker plague and put their neighbouring restaurants back in business. Despite this endearing storyline, this game itself is anything but endearing,

Diner Mania is a game where you are given the task to run a restaurant, serve customers and try to get gangsters to leave the business. With the money you earn you can upgrade your restaurant and get new dishes to serve. Eventually you save enough money to buy three more restaurants and you should try to earn the full three stars in each restaurant to finish the game.
The game has a good pace, and can get quite difficult at times when you are swarmed with customers. Thankfully you are able to switch restaurants in the game, so it never really gets boring (until the end, when I was trying to get the three stars in the last restaurant, and no upgrades left, that was a bit tedious).

Kitchen Simulator 2015
the entire game looks like those terrible 90’s compressed cgi full motion video things that play before you begin a game.
there are no options, period.
so the music is way too quiet, turning it up leads to excruciating beeps and boops that i guess serve as a notification. none of my actions made any noise.
graphics as i mentioned, are just awful. no options there either. chugs like a chungus. made in UNREAL engine.
Upon launch, you are greeted with a dreadful menu that has three things to click on. PLAY, TUTORIAL, QUIT. Even worse, they have those three things repeated right next to their english counterparts, now in russian. One of the worst UIs i have ever seen.

Cooking Witch
If you’ve ever wanted the witch from Hansel and Gretel to get revenge, now’s your chance!
It’s not very often that I achieve every achievement that a game has in the first sitting. As much as I would like to its almost impossible. However, when I sat down to play VaragtP’s new release, Cooking Witch, I soon found myself hooked on its simplistic yet addictive gameplay.
The premise of the game is simple. You play the role of a witch. There’s a party going down in the woods. Your objective is to abduct children from said party and to drop them into your nearby cauldron. When you do so you get their meat to eat as well as hearts (health) and stars. It’s as straightforward as it sounds.

Battle Chef Brigade Deluxe
“…no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.”
~Julia Child
Let’s admit it, the times when mixing tile-matching puzzles with RPG elements felt fresh and cool are long gone. Not only it’s hard to surprise people with yet another “Puzzle Quest”, when you see something like that today? It’s like “Good grief, not another one…”. Battle Chef Brigade, though? Let’s just say that this game is special. Very, very special. But I’m getting ahead of myself.

I like this game because it is different form any other game I played. You get to play with different characters and each one has their own story, but they are all part of the main story of the game. I like the combat of the game when you go on adventures looking for ingredients and fighting all kinds of monster to get them all. You also get to choose your equipment for your character and each one has different things that makes your character better. The cooking and how you cook is different and I found it cool how they use a match-3 mini-game to make your dishes, so it is much different from how you do it in the Overcooked games which I also liked. I like finding all kinds of ingredients to cook different foods. The game graphics look really nice like a Disney anime mix and the food looks so good…but I would never eat it knowing where it comes from. I guess it makes sense in their world but it’s weird in real life.

SENRAN KAGURA Bon Appétit! - Full Course
TL;DR summary: A fun rhythm game if you can manage the steep difficulty spikes, with all the over-the-top insanity and jiggling fanservice you’d expect from the franchise.
Leave it to Senran Kagura to find yet another new way for sexy female shinobi to battle and determine who comes out on top (and still dressed). This time it’s a rhythm game to simulate a cooking battle, iron chef style. Two lanes of target buttons scroll right to left, with six (or eight, on Expert difficulty) possible buttons to press, any of which can be on either lane. The beat is set by the music, while a combo of cooking action and cartoon skin in the background tries to distract you from your efforts. Succeed at hammering out the patterns, and judge Hanzo will be so moved by the intense flavour that he’ll be whisked away to a bizarre fantasy world, unique to each opponent you defeat (and these scenes are so insane and weird they alone are worth playing for), and then upon return his reaction will be so intense it literally blows the clothing off the loser. You know, because even though it’s a rhythm game, it’s still Senran Kagura.

Thank you for porting Bon Appetit! I’m a fan of rhythm games and appreciative of good port!
Time for an actual review!
SENRAN KAGURA Bon Appetit! is a rhythm game with fanservice.
You rhythmically press the correct buttons along the music (some are catchy) and your rival get clothes damage. Get perfect victory and you’ll be rewarded with the ultimate dish . Ready to be served!
For game difficulty, 3 options available; easy for genuinely enjoying the scene, normal for casual play with some tapping buttons, hard for testing your concentration and focus!

It’s a fun game about being stranded on a desert island.
Some of the mechanics take a minute to get used to but on the whole I like the game, it’s very chill

A well designed DLC and enjoyable progression. The problem is that it relies heavily on cutting things into certain size pieces which is nothing short of infuriating. I enjoyed it at first, but as I got more recipes with annoying cutting requirements it just ruined the experience. Also trying to pour 5ml of liquid is annoying as well. At home I use a measuring cup so if I pour too much I can correct it. In game I have to use the mouse and time it right or get gotcha’d. I hate the cutting, and the physics can be annoying when you are moving around with plates and things fly off or bang into the wall. Gameplay that relies on the cutting mechanic ruins this DLC. The Pizza DLC was such a nice step forward, this one would be as well if the cutting was changed or removed.
