Retro Classix: Super BurgerTime
I love being able to play classic games from the past with all the unconstrained ability to feed coins in without loosing all my pocket money. Ladder mazes and angry food never saw it coming!

I’m a big fan of many of the 80’s era classics and I’ve sunk hours of my life playing the original Burger Time at this point, but I always wanted more stages to play. Now, this one was in the arcades and I never had the chance to try it, but honestly, it’s not really Burger Time, but something that uses the general aesthetics.
SBT is… it’s chaos. Ruthless, distracting, quarter munching chaos. Gone is the methodical charm of the original and planning out your paths. SBT just throws overwhelming numbers of very random enemies that don’t necessarily even follow the food theme (hammers, vultures, lighters… huh?) alongside a metric ton of annoying opponents that are food, but have a way of cheesing you to death, instead of punishing you for planning a path badly. They respawn rapidly, tend to out pace you easily, and they can even make it borderline impossible to get out of your spawning position. Some stages remind me more of zombie swarms than anything else.

Overcooked
My wife has played this damn thing to three stars on every damn level including the expansions, including solo and co-op. She occasionally stomps my little ass in versus. And even though I’ve been totally dominated I have to say this game is tight. It’s one of those things that just . . . all the pieces work together and go together perfectly. I just want Overcooked 2, and I hope they don’t change a damn thing. It’s one of the better video games I ever played really.
To the people giving it thumbs down for not being great single player - well, it’s not supposed to be that. But like I say, my wife plays it single player and can beat the whole damn game like that. Which is insane and unnatural, but it can be done.

VR The Diner Duo
OK This game is amazing! Like that should be your main takeaway from everything else I say:
My partner, and two buddies recorded some straight up game-play so see how it feels:
On it’s own its enjoyable but where this excels is in the co-operative element of asymmetric game-play. It hard in places, ludicrously so at times, but all the way through its that fun giggling bit of nostalgic gaming where you end up encouraging and shouting at the person next to you as you work together.

Overcooked! All You Can Eat
Even that the game has some bugs that Team17 doesnt fix and the game doesnt have much new levels…
PROS:
Be able to play OC 1, OC 2 / DLCs, 7 New levels in One Game
Crossplay works better than OC2
Really fun to play with your friends
CONS:
Too expensive…
Some bugs (example: some stuff get stuck outside the level or above the walls/oven (plates, pizza….)
Response is a bit laggy comparing with OC2

If you’ve played Overcooked 1 or 2, this is simply a collection of both with some new levels, which is not worth a full price. If you’ve never played Overcooked series, this is the perfect one for you.

Don’t Cut Your Hand 2
Its not a bad game. Its actually pretty fun. Some things could be explained better, like right-clicking on a plate to remove items. Also, theres a couple bugs. One of them makes it impossible to beat the game because it won’t give you the right ingredient to finish a recipe. Overall, I feel like I had enough fun for my $2.

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.

Highlaundry
Really great game. Overcooked style.
Is funny playing with 4 players local or with steam’s remote play
– Real player with 12.3 hrs in game
It’s a little clunky but it just came out so I expect any clunkiness to be fixed in future updates. The style is like Overcooked except it’s limited to Steam Remote Play. It feels less stressful than Overcooked because of the music playing during a round, granted we’ve only played a couple of stages so I’m not sure if the music picks up or anything. I do wish that it was made for online play rather than remote play. I’ve tried remote play a few times and it is SO buggy/bad even when the both of us have stable wifi. However, I won’t fault Highlaundry for the faults of Steam Remote Play.

Kitchen Simulator 2
(Got this game for free via dev submission to SteadyGiveaways. Thanks!)
Trailer makes it look good, gameplay gets boring and fast!
Kitchen Simulator 2 is a simple game about gathering food and serving it up…not exactly cooking stuff. Some people want pizzas, others want half avacados, and some idiots want a single carrot slice….though the biggest idiots already have food on their plates even if it’s something they’re asking for.
If there’s something this game gets right is that the food looks great. Handling the food and all other models, however, look pretty bland or buggy. There’s also LAN support, but why bother when you don’t even have LAN multiplayer? This game basically has 10-15 minutes of gameplay before it spits you out at the main menu as if you hit the ESC button, which gives you the same result.

ok but what the actual fuck is this game??? it must be some type of woman thing but i cannot wrap my skull around this game, some of the items i think have been made up. wtf is a long muffin how can a muffin be long and where the fuck do i find it? what is the difference between french bread and normal bread how the fuck am i meant to serve you the correct origin bread that looks no different to japanese bread? i can grab the food just as well as Jimmy Savile can grab a child. there is no consequence if you miss a customer and i dont actually know the point as there is no scoring system and after the day ends it puts you back to the main menu. other than that id say 10/10 i would def recommend to a friend and i hope to learn all sorts of interesting facts about food prep and what its like in the kitchen. i would also like to state that Gordon Ramsay has been awfully quiet about the release of this game as i think all his fans would move to this far superior teaching method. i hope to obtain all the knowledge i possibly can from this game so i dont have to rely on my disobedient wife to make me shitty burnt scrambled eggs every fucking day. i hope you found this review helpful 👍

Don’t cut your hand
This game is pretty straight forward, and Its all in the name, Don’t cut your hand!
Choose one of the chefs, start the game and cut the food or objects presented in front of you.
If you go to the next food too fast, people will complain that you waste food,
when you cut too far you’ll cut of your own hand and it’s game over.
The single player mode gets repetitive fast and the cutting is so inconsistent.
You would swear you could make that cut, but suddenly that cut gets so big that you cut your own hand.

I dont particularly like this game. Its simple and hard. I know the point is that it is supposed to be hard. Each item has two versions that are so minorly different you would often miss the difference and miss count the cut. Making you lose. The achievements are kinda hard but mostly tedious cause youll have to just keep playing and playing.
But as I write this one acheivement is not even possible because the creator has not finished the game.
I do not suggest getting this game unless you have a few dollers to blow, dont care about achievements, and are extremely bored.

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.
