On one hand, I had issues with this game. On the other, I couldn’t stop playing…
My issues basically boiled down to there being no explanation regarding the controls or what to do. I was quickly able to figure out this was a “assemble the order” sort of game, but there was no explanation on what the process was supposed to be. I spent a huge chunk of time thinking I needed to get water from the sink (because, if there’s a sink, why wouldn’t you need water from it to make a drink). I was even trying to figure out the stove a little. Ultimately, it took me a really long time to realize the sink and stove were not needed at all, and until I figured that out, I very nearly gave up.
Once I figured things out, however, I really did get into the rhythm of making drinks and delivering them to the single, really thirsty, customer I had. I was a little disappointed that there was no fail or victory state, but on the other, I just fell into a nice cozy rhythm of just pumping out drinks like a master cocoa-tier!
I thought the character’s movement felt really nice! I liked how the character turned to face where I was going. Very slick.
Over all, very nice game that just needed some control/cooking explanations to smooth things over, in my opinion.
If you’re interested in watching frustration give way to entering the zone, I streamed my play of this game on my twitch channel.
