Cooking Mama Cookstar(tbd)

In reviews elsewhere I’ve read that it’s not a great game but if you grew up on cooking mama you know what to expect and it’s brilliant. It brings back so much nostalgia and is well worth it for that alone

The game came in a timely manner and works great! I liked the game it was good simple fun, and I am always happy to play a cooking mama game. Great game, lots of fun!

Jogo muito divertido como todos da mesma franquia

Be patient when ordering and don’t panic if it feels like it’s taking entirely too long to ship, i ordered this on december 2nd and the estimated arrival was originally december 31st, but very quickly after ordering that estimate became december 27th. I waited for it to charge me and ship out which it finally did on december 27th, with the estimated arrival still saying it was arriving that day. I was a little sketched out, as i’ve had products claim to be shipped and claim to be arriving that never show up, but when i got home that evening it had been delivered the same day it shipped! The case and the game cartridge were in perfect condition and the game is exactly as it was when i was a child playing on the ds (which will forever be my favorite version) and the wii (which i like less than either the switch version or the ds version). Cooking mama never truly changes, at least functionally. The gameplay remains the same with the addition of new sections. I love the addition of a vegetarian section, where you can make all the same recipes from the main section of the game, but made with non-meat options (seitan in place of chicken in one recipe is the only example i can think of at this moment). I also think the multiplayer (potluck) section is super cool, although it’ll be a while before i can play it with anyone. I haven’t had the chance yet to really dive into this specific game, but it’s the same game i’ve loved for nearly 20 years and it’s remained nearly the same.

I really enjoy this game, the motion controls are a lot more streamlined and better than wakuwaku sweets (although I still enjoy that game). My only complaint is that you can’t cook recipes in multiplayer mode although I assumed you could. You can only do mini games in multiplayer mode. Despite this you can simply play the recipes in single player and pass the controller around to as many players as you like! That said they are enjoyable and overall the game reminds me of the wii games. There’s a quality I can’t explain but if you have been searching for something on the switch that will remind of you the fun you had on the wii in your childhood I highly recommend this game! It’s quite expensive but I can’t complain because they don’t make it anymore and it’s not available on the eshop because of a legal issue. This is why I’d recommend you get it before any games that are still available
