I have honestly never played a game that infuriated me more than this game.

I got this game to play with two other friends, and coming from a game called PlateUp, I thought that with a similar premise, we were going to have a lot of fun. It initially did start off as a fun, challenging game. However, over the course of the game, that challenged turned into absurd difficulty and it started getting ridiculous.

Some of the levels the game throws at you are really difficult to wrap around, but imagine trying to get multiple people to understand it and figure out how to optimally work with each other. We had to take several attempts to barely understand the levels, combine it with some minor bugs in this game, and other minor details, the game knows how to infuriate you. And I hate how this is the default difficulty of the game. The fact that the game has ways to make it easier through "Assist Settings" is condescending and makes you feel like you are not good enough for the game.

Getting 3 stars on a level honestly isn't possible unless you and your friends completely sweat with the dashes and get good RNG with the recipes. It was through this that we got a few close calls to 3 stars, but only falling a few points short. But the game deliberately times you to where if you don't get it within the second, the customer gets impatient and fails you.

I know PlateUp has some finnicky controls, but it is much worse in this game. Sometimes whenever I place an ingredient in a pot or trying to pick up a pot/pan before the meat burns, the game oftentimes misunderstood where I was facing and decides to place what I'm holding on the completely wrong tile, or it picks up an item I'm not even looking at. It's almost as if the developers didn't do enough playtesting to iron out these seemingly minor issues that can make or break an attempt.

Also, don't bother playing this on singleplayer. On singleplayer, you have to control two people and it is difficult to manage, especially if you are playing with a controller. If you ever choose to play this game, at least get it with a friend so it becomes more bearable. Get a good friend, so that when the both of you get upset trying to do some of the levels, you can forget it.

The plot is cheesy, but I can overlook it. I like the look of the game, it's nice and refreshing. The soundtrack is pretty nice. But that's all the positives that I can say about this game. Unless you're willing to sweat or you can hold your rage, don't buy this game.
