The problem is, the pressure of hitting time-related targets is accentuated by god awful controls and ridiculous physics. Not that it’ll matter too much as you’ll no doubt get frustrated long before acquiring even half of them. Nevertheless, with around 70 different recipes to master, there’s decent variety at least. Possibly the only slight disappointment is a lack of desserts on the menu to sweeten proceedings. The trickier a meal is to make, the more likely a profit is going to be heading into your pocket, unless you mess it up of course. In terms of recipes though, the sheer range in Cooking Simulator’s is certainly impressive by featuring soups, pasta dishes, complex burgers, steaks, fish and more. While memorising the necessary stages is possible for a selection of dishes, as more are unlocked, that becomes virtually impossible. After a couple of days on the job it wants you to keep bringing up the recipes manually and that’s very time-consuming – not ideal when there’s a clock ticking on every order. Take a classic tomato soup as an example the individual ingredients are listed, the quantities in weight, cooking time and instructions to blend. Initially, there’ll be a handy checklist on-screen for the recipe you’re attempting to recreate, which is much appreciated. There are a number of perks and skills to garner as well, offering various bonuses to ‘make life easier’, but that’s yet to be proven in my experience. Through earning reputation and money, your business will grow and more lucrative recipes will become available. Each day you’ll have to fulfil a few customer orders and, in return, receive grades and cash for your efforts. You find out this is the big chance to show off how good a chef you are by turning a run-down restaurant into a five-star success. Thankfully then, there is a bit of hand-holding available in the career. While the lessons ensure you’re aren’t going into the Career Mode totally blind, it does feel like a half-arsed attempt. Remember it, or don’t, nobody seems to care.
But then in another lesson there’s an entire meal to prep and cook, before the mode climaxes with a rushed ‘tour’ of everything else that’s in the kitchen environment. The pacing here is completely off though, with half of them covering miniscule tasks separately – like cutting and seasoning – that are over swiftly.
