    Overcooked is a cute and challenging co op game when trying to get all 3 stars in the game. There is quite a bit of content too. Overall, the game felt like more of a chore to play though then fun. I ended up beating the game but it was more me pushing myself to completion.

    good fun in coop but getting all the stars (which is required to unlock some of the later levels) is relentlessly hard

    I love Overcooked for its attempt to bring back good old, couch co-op. I've had a bunch of fun hours playing this game alongside my friends. However we would never really get sucked in, we'd do a few rounds of the game and move on to the next thing.

    This is probably the main issue I had with the game. The premise, the quality it's all really good but I didn't feel that anything kept me or my friends coming back.

    The single player in particular is frankly, not worth it. I'm glad they thought of this factor at all, but it was not dealt with graciously.

    Overall a fun co-op experience, and a nice return to old school co-op, but nothing necessarily groundbreaking.    … Expand

    An extremely fun little game that has an unfortunately short campaign, but with a stellar multiplayer component that is insane and funny at the same time. A must have for family parties

    To put it nicely, Overcooked is kind of like a Mario Party Mini Game. But a very good one at that. It’s a cooperative Multi-Player game where you try to work together as chefs. You have different challenges along the way but every “mission” boils down to the same goal. Cook as much food in as little time as you can.

It’s a cooperative Multi-Player game where you try to work together as chefs. You have different challenges along the way but every “mission” boils down to the same goal. Cook as much food in as little time as you can.

    There is actually a decent story that is accompanied by this game as well. There is a “Great Beast” that looks like Meatball Monster but it has an insatiable appetite so you must go back in time to learn how to cook. So as you’re progressing through the story, you’re learning new dishes that you will be able to cook at present to appease the “Great Beast.”

    I messed around with the single player aspect of the game. Its the same campaign as the normal campaign that you play with friends but instead you play it alone. It felt do-able but it wasn’t a lot of fun. This is a game where you’re going to want at least one other person. If you could have a team of 4, that would probably be the most fun but also the most chaotic.

    I ended up picking this game up for very cheap on PlayStation Network, its hands down the best $5 I spent on a video game. This game is definitely worth picking up for $15-20.    … Expand

    It's not really that fun to me, it makes me stressed and angry. I really wish I'd spent my money on something better. It's just really difficult, I wish they would add more time or something. Also, it really needs online play.

    Very cool soundtrack for an indie game. It's mechanics and gameplay is fun being perfect for parties with friends.

    Lets be clear, I don't like this game, its got dozens of little annoying problems which it that are arguably deliberately designed that way.
    What I do like about it is that it made by non-gamer partner understand why games can be so much fun and for that I'll give it a 6

    Voto 75/100.
    Gioco a bassissimo budget. Questo è evidente, ma è divertentissimo se giocato in compagnia.
    Assolutamente tra i migliori giochi in co-op degli ultimi tempi.
    Peccato per il budget ristretto che ne ha limitati i confini, ma gli sviluppatori sono andati oltre ogni aspettativa. In attesa del 2, nella speranza della fioritura di un gameplay cosi originale.

    Одна из лучших co-op игр, данная игра скрасит вам вечер в компании друга, жены, ребенка. Много веселья гарантировано, однако, на мой взгляд именно в первой части графика уныла, да и текстуры смотрятся простенько. 7/10

    Very entertaining co-op game, original idea with outstanding gameplay improvements makes the game not boring after small amount of time.

    No le encuentro nada malo, simplemente que es limitado.
    Es un concepto muy chulo, sobre todo si lo juegas en cooperativo local u online, aunque es verdad que es bastante difícil el cabrón, sobre todo el final, una locura. La temática es chula, pero es eso, está bastante limitado, no te puedes esperar gran cosa, pero tampoco promete más de lo que es.

    Overcooked is a tasty snack to enjoy between AAA games. It’s often a frustratingly difficult party game, but never a boring one. [Oct 2016]

    The best local multiplayer game of 2016 so far - this is co-op chaos that anyone can enjoy. [Oct 2006, p.78]
