Community Insight:
It is so good that we play it every day.
Yeahhh this game was definitely made with ai. Which would be fine if they were atleast open about it. Please support animators.
The game is very good and earning coins isnt hard. We havent had to spend money yet so thats a plus. We are noticing that its repeating restaurants and its super expensive to buy. Which is crazy because weve already bought it. Also, the preview pics in the App Store has absolutely nothing to do with the game. Stop false advertising. And make up new restaurants instead of repeating them.
Loveeee The Game Dont Get us Wrong , But we Strongly Dislike That You Only Get 60 Seconds For Each Round . Wish it Was More-so Free Range & Continuous.
An ad after every round is crazy! Lag in game if you move too fast! Totally annoying.
We are noticing an annoying trend where the preview for the game is nothing like the actual game. This is just a traditional cooking game and nothing like the ads that it advertises.
This is a very cute game. Nice graphics. Easy to play! BUT there is an ad after every level. If you dont want ads forever, as they say, go ahead and pay $15. Love the game, but had to delete.
The ads and preview pictures do not match up with the actual game play. Its fun but you really need to match up the gameplay with the ads.
So far so good, just downloaded this game today and its fun, havent had any problems.
This game is so cute and fun, its a good relaxing and chilling game you can play whenever.
Love the game but could calm down on so many ads.
Los grficos son excel nt s, la rapidez del juego es extraordinaria la nica queja es q cuando terminas el nivel hay un botn gigante para tener doble ganancia si miras una publicidad, deberan tener ambos opciones al mismo nivel de resto todo bien.
We recommend it to any player, that loves playing cooking games.
Love this game, but needs a variety of new restaurants.
Its fun but wish there was not as many ads.
Just started playing. Fun game EXCEPT for the long ads and the amount of ads.
Love this game but wish there were more restaurants instead of just cycling through the same ones over and over.
We love this game we just wish they would have more restaurants/food levels . Its the same ones over and over.
We like this game but hate that it is only a MINUTE of play time and 2+ minutes of ads.
Fun prior to higher levels. All higher levels (on level 18) are the same as the lower levels. No challenge.
Im on level 13 and the past like 2 levels are the same restaurants as before.. Same food and everything. We were enjoying the different levels until now.
This game is fun but there are WAY too many commercials and they last forever.
The game itself is fun and exciting. But Im not liking the ads that pop up directly after we had just watched a forced ad. We understand the ads are what help pay for the game but too way too often ads pop up. Ill change our rating to a higher rating if you can somehow fix the ads issue.
Could be a great game. Love the graphics and gameplay but once you get past the intro period, you get 1-2 ads after EVERY level! Completely annoying. Removed it at that point.
It is a fun game but, we are on level 14 and we have repeated restaurants at least 3 times. It feels like recycling of the same scenes.
Its so fun until you realize that you only get to do the same the same 3 restaurants over and over. We hope more are coming because Im on level 13 and would like something different. We do love that the customers dont get angry.
A while ago we wouldve given this 5 stars. Now Im going to stop playing for a while. You are boring us to death, with only using a few food options. The same, over and over. Ill check back later to see if things have changed. If they havent, Ill just delete it.
We love playing this game but when we use 3x the energy, we dont get 3x the reward. Im lucky if it get 2x. We dont know how 2.27 x 3 = 3k something.
We enjoy playing this game but we realized after level 12 the same levels/ food are coming up. Havent even seen the sandwich level from the ads yet. Are most of the levels repeated? Also dont like that there isnt a level progression chart or something to see previous levels completed. Fun, but boring if there are no new levels.
We played this game until the levels started over again. The games they show to lure you in never appear.
Need more levels with different foods. Ive played all of them. Now its repeating.
The game itself is great but how on earth are the ads longer than the game that makes zero sense.
Ran through the stages in a day or two then they start repeating? Game play is very repetitive.
Really loved the game and was willing to go through all the ads for it, but at one point youre just repeating the same levels over and over. Made us lose interest.
The game was great at first and we enjoyed collecting bonus cash, but once you reach a certain level, the maps start to repeat. The only difference is that the maps cost more money to upgrade, but Ive sold hot dogs 3 times now and will be deleting the app shortly. Its unfortunate because it was one of the better cooking apps around.
Deleting this app, because after every game you play, you have three commercials to watch before you can start the next game level and this happens after every one game you play, to many commercials.
We paid for no ads but Im still seeing ads.
We really like this game. Upgrades are easy to get the graphics are amazing. We like the fact that you cant lose a level its just based on what you can earn. The only thing we dont like is Im not used to the levels being so short but thats no big deal. If you like these kind of games we would recommend downloading it.
This game is fun to play and it gives this 54 year old lady to see what cognitive abilities we have.
There are way to many ads on this game and the last one we couldnt get out of without getting out of the game. We love the game but to many ads.
After a few levels Ive noticed that the amount of money you need to upgrade items has exponentially increased while the amount earned seems very small for the effort. We had to play the hamburger level to day 156 just to move to the next level. Its very frustrating. And thats even with boosting our earnings by watching the ads. Please increase the earnings as the levels increase, Im not willing to do that again.
We like this game a lot but the adds are insane. They go on so long sometimes, our phone turns off if Im not paying attention. We dont pay for games but we would pay to take the adds off.
The game was ok but too many long, forced ads.
At first Im enjoying the games. But its really ruined our mood that the money ive purchased was already deducted from our iTunes but we didnt received the purchases. What a shame! In fact, the amount of money (games) decreased after the update. So annoying.
Its 5 stars because its only .99 to remove ads forever !!!! Plus the game is fun and relaxing. We love the graphics, the creativity, the style of the game, and more. Our favorite part is increasing the multiplier for our earnings to gain more money.
We really like this game, and we want to keep playing. It doesnt feel like other cooking games that are difficult to upgrade or difficult level to pass. There are two reasons that we give it four stars. 1, we wish the amount of energy would slowly increase as you level up. We understand that this is where the app gets people to use real money to get more energy, but if you keep increasing the multiplier but keep the energy at 20, it might stop some people from playing entirely. 2, the additional awards every 3-4 days states that we will get a grant price if we accomplish everything, but there is no way to see how many are still required to get to the grant price. Is it just the accumulation of everything? Or is it because you set it to a point where no one can actually complete and get to the grant price and it is there to lure us to play? Im starting to think its the latter. At least let the player see where the end goal is, so they are more motivated to play. At least we are like that, we dont like not knowing how far we need to go to reach the grant price.
The first two restaurants are relatively fun and then the kitchen upgrades get really expensive and so many of the customers just order drinks. It gets boring very fast. You have to play 20 rounds of serving mostly just drinks to get upgrades for dishes that are rarely ordered.
This game is by far the best cooking game Ive played in a while. We absolutely love it.
Like another reviewer mentioned, we are also a single mom that looks for games to just distract our mind even if it is for a few minutes. The ads dont bother us because they are between each round. It is nice that the customers dont get angry if theyre waiting for their food (though right now Im only on Day 9). It is nice to play a fast paced game that doesnt make us feel tense while playing it. The graphics are pleasant and well drawn. It doesnt feel like the game was just thrown together.
The game seems to be fun. We dont regret pay the .99 for the ad removal. It was well worth not being interrupted every 5 seconds.
