16 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeGameplay reviews highlight significant frustrations with the game's mechanics, including frequent restarts due to inconsistent physics and misleading promotional content. While some players appreciate the realism and variety in cutting, chopping, and mixing actions, they note that these mechanics are marred by issues that detract from the overall experience. Overall, the gameplay offers potential but requires substantial improvements to enhance player satisfaction.
“While the cutting, scooping, and mixing mechanics have issues, they are easily the most realistic and granular I've seen for any game of its kind.”
“The mechanics themselves felt fun, though some aspects could definitely use some work.”
“Cutting, chopping, stove top actions, and counter work mechanics are about as good as you can expect.”
“I didn't bother fighting through it to make it to the rest of the game because I had to start over about 10 times to get anywhere and still failed because the game wasn't allowing it to happen. The gameplay in the video is misleading; if you do happen to buy it, remember you can refund it if you have less than 2 hours of gameplay.”
“- Physics problems and inconsistent mechanics (a loaf of bread will fly away when I try to cut it, containers transcend into the next dimension when trying to scoop ingredients, etc.).”
