I either ran into a bug or the UX needs some work. I enjoyed putting the rat on my head, but other than that I couldn't do anything past getting the water boiled. The combine button never combined anything for me, or gave me any feedback as to why. I tried ramen sandwiches, regular bowls of ramen, all the primary ingredients, just boiled water and ramen. I would have really enjoyed if you could put a book or a map in the bowl on the title screen to get a tutorial.
