The story aspect of the game is generally viewed as lacking depth, with players noting that while it showcases various cities and their culinary cultures, it does not provide an engaging narrative. Many users appreciate the vibrant graphics and the cultural elements presented, but feel that the gameplay is overly focused on challenges and monetization rather than a compelling storyline. Overall, while the game is enjoyable and challenging, it falls short for those seeking a rich narrative experience.
- “Cooking Craze tells the player a story about cities all over the world, by introducing us to not only their food, but also giving us a 'taste' (visually) of what the culture in those particular cities may look like; including but not limited to the people, landscape, and possible landmarks in each particular city.”
- “I love this game because it's super challenging and you can never get bored. The food trucks and the daily quests make it more exciting. I have been playing every day for 6 months now and am not disappointed. I have to say if you are patient, fast, and a good player, you won't have to use real money to get ahead. The boosts and prizes you get while playing are more than enough. Right now, I am on my way to Seoul and I just can't wait. Thank you, Big Fish, for this amazing cooking game!”
