    Great game again, however! I have to agree with the other somewhat neutral review.

    1 is incredibly more challenging, but also fulfilling to play. 2 is clearly aimed at being far more for casuals who still want to earn 3*, which I guess is fine since casuals are the majority. I also have to point out that the “worlds” in OC1 all kept changing, somewhat like old school mario games    Great game again, however! I have to agree with the other somewhat neutral review.

    I also have to point out that the “worlds” in OC1 all kept changing, somewhat like old school mario games did theme wise.

    However a large majority of the worlds in oc2 do not change so much, from the first til the very last.
    You may play world 1-4 and experience a similar theme, and even mechanic all the way in world 6.
    MANY of these maps rely on simple plate cleaning management to win and not much else, leaving you only 2 plates for example. This is a welcome addition from 2 however it is the SOLE mechanic for determining a 3* win on far too many worlds, not just stages but worlds.

    One world, but with many stages using this wouldve been ok, this just felt messy.

    Also, as many have said getting 3* in this game is laughable.
    Me and my wife screwed up so many levels so many times but when we got our score, it would end up at 3* SO many times.

    We were pretty much kinda like oh um really? I “guesssss” well do the next one, since theres no point in redoing the last one even though we couldve done way better......

    ^That happened a LOT. I cant think of a level we actually failed to 3* honestly the first try except a few dog ones.

    Online MP and throwing are very welcome add ins too! However I worry they maybe focused on getting these added into the game at the cost of a little more balancing.

    They need to go back to the roots making OC3 way harder, with each world having no similarity to the last world.

    We all continue to play OC1 again and again although, everytime we bring up oc2 all of our faces just kinda go naaa, we beat it once thats enough. I can see this being deleted for hdd space now while oc1 will stay with us til ps5 for sure.

    I do hope the studio continues to make overcooked games but out of 1 and 2, 1 blows the sequel away no contest.

    That said, I still think this game is a must buy for the genre, just dont expect what the first one gave you.    … Expand

    Overcooked 2 is a well-made game, but it's too hard. You have to cook food for customers and if you don't do it right, they'll get angry. There's a lot of different recipes to learn and the game is timed, so you have to be fast. I found it challenging and fun, but also frustrating. The customers are impatient and if you make a mistake, it can cost you the game.

    Seriously good fun in coop, I wish there were more games like this, have a lot of good memories from it even though the later levels became very tricky

    Overcooked 2 is certainly a decent game with a lot of content. Now, it's also possible to play online. However, I found the difficulty level not enough challenging, even though I was attempting to get 3 stars. Sometimes, I had the impression that I didn't play well and I still got the 3 stars. At the end, there is a 4 star difficulty level but it's just impossible for me.

    одна из лучших кооперативных игр. Не хватило изменения механик по ходу прохождения, геймплей интересный, но чуток однообразный

    Un poco bastante parecido al uno, la verdad, en ese aspecto, pierde bastante frescura.
    Lo noté mas lentillo de frames, no sé por qué, se me hizo menos dinámico, quizás porque al ser más grande, como juego, tiene mucha pantalla de carga, que el uno carecía, y se hace mucho menos dinámico.
    Los aspectos gráficos, rollo, los iconos y demás, me gustan menos que los del primero, me encajan    Un poco bastante parecido al uno, la verdad, en ese aspecto, pierde bastante frescura.

    Los aspectos gráficos, rollo, los iconos y demás, me gustan menos que los del primero, me encajan menos en la estética, y a nivel general, me transmite mucho menos que el anterior, a pesar de que sigue siendo un juego interesante.
    Las nuevas mecánicas son una maravilla, la de lanzar en especial, muy buena, y muy bien aplicada a la jugabilidad.
    He notado que también es más fácil que el primero, sobre todo, o debido, mejor dicho, al añadido de las propinas, que es una mecánica interesante, pero se hace muy fácil y llevadero de esa forma. La nueva partida+ ni la he intentado, me parece ridículo de alcanzar, súper difícil conseguir la 4 estrella.
    En general está bien, es un juego más grande, tiene muchas más cosas, como recetas, personajes, etc. La jugabilidad sigue siendo una maravilla, y mucho más si lo juegas en cooperativo.
    Lo malo, pues lo que ya he dicho, no se aleja demasiado del original, y le hace perder frescura, además que si juegas solo tiene que er una castaña.    … Expand

    Is Overcooked 2! worth the purchase? I would say it is, for sure. The story and writing may be a bit over-the-top and punny for my liking, but there are certainly people out there that will have some fun with it. So whether you’re a cook for the ages or a master of the macaroni and cheese, Overcooked 2! is certainly worth picking up.

    If you're hungry for more Overcooked, this will satiate you and then some. Just don't expect any real changes to the recipe. [Oct 2018, p.85]

    The original Overcooked is a cooperative masterpiece and this sequel simply tried a little too hard. It's still enjoyable but the frustrating stage designs and easy scoring system make for a far less satisfying meal.
