    Неплохая задумка, много оборудования, ингредиентов, рецептов, симпатичная графика.
    Но разработчики решили, что видимо игроки смогут получать удовольствие, только борясь с управлением, а не от самого процесса готовки. По итогу практически ни одна операция не может быть выполнена точно так, как ты этого хочешь. Всё будет скакать, прыгать, валиться, превращая процесс готовки в цирковое шоу.

    Разработчики явно ошиблись с названием своей игры, либо упоролись в процессе, извратив идею до комической Hand Simulator.    … Expand

    Unfortunately I'll have to give this game a low score. I bought it at GOG, then they pulled it from that store. I can't get any updates or bugfixes for the game, nor can I get any of the DLCs (that they STILL advertise in the game).

    Paid $13 for it and played 4.2 hours before I got SO bored of it. Every time I saw it on my home screen i loaded it up and go into the game and then just lost all my motivation when I get into it. Might just be me but it's just kinda boring. Although when I was having someone watch and we were just messing around breaking **** it was so funny, but eventually destroying everything too gotPaid $13 for it and played 4.2 hours before I got SO bored of it.

    On the one hand, the game is okay. Graphics are nice. The gameplay is charmingly wonky to a fault, and it's hard to do anything precisely.

    You can spend a lot of time just having fun in your kitchen doing nothing in particular in the Sandbox mode, which I think provides a nice mental break.

    Low score is because they were selling the game on GOG, and I bought it hoping for the Cakes and Cookies expansion. They dropped support for the GOG version with no olive branch extended, so to speak, to buy it on other platforms, no last patches to at least bring the game up to parity with other versions.

    So I paid for the last version of the game on that platform, which still advertises the Cakes and Cookies DLC that is never coming to GOG because they literally removed it from sale and dropped support.

    Thanks for advertising a DLC I can't get, and don't trust them to suddenly stop support of other versions without communicating it.    … Expand

    Cooking Simulator is fun, despite its tedious career mode. There’s a lot of detail tot he different recipes and it takes a lot of focus to be successful. This is partly so because of the controls which aren’t always too responsive and some technical hiccups. Cooking Simulator isn’t a full meal, but a great snack.

    Cooking Simulator is an entertaining simulation game that allows you to cook to your heart’s content without the real-life mess and can easily consume a few hours of your time, but does suffer from several glitches, can feel repetitive, and is in need of future optimizations.

    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.
