First thing I did after booting off the game was watch the episode where Chef Dies
trivia game where the questions fucking suck but the vibe and humor is fun. the little i know about watching south park clips on my dad's ipod in 2012 tell me this is pretty authentic. was surprisingly fond of the atari-esque minigames between stages too.
but why does the n64 version run so choppy during every section except the minigames????? you'd think the quiz portions with no collision checks or otherwise intensive logic would run a stable 60. genuinely couldn't tell if it was a hardware problem or if they purposely made it run choppy to match the show.

No se entiende una mierda
Probably a damn solid time with a group, but it lacks any AI so there's no real fun to it whatsoever if you're alone, even if you're really into this early era south park kinda stuff (which was me around the time of playing this, abt 4 years ago)
However one time mupen64plus failed hard to emulate this at the time as well so there were some rather...jarring visual errors. Then it didn't happen again

So like does the kid that wins still get to fuck Chef?
This game is terrible. But it's really funny. It's like Pokemon Stadium but really bad, and for that, it's kinda good.
Comedy Central saw You Don't Know Jack and said "let's do that, but with bad Mario Party minigames". This game lacks the sweet, sweet lovin' that we've come to know from Chef...
Mario Party-type mini games without the board. Sure, we can get straight to the point but after a few games you’ve already played everything. (1 hour maybe) The games are fun though. This game could be higher, but even with friends they can ruin it by spamming the buzz in button when answering South Park questions.
It's kind of hilarious that if someone hypothetically asked me "what's the best South Park game from 5th gen" that the answer would be the trivia game with multimedia flash-like games ripping off Midway arcade titles. It's a tad depressing in a way that the "Spank The Monkey" game where you and Mr. Mackey play Simon Says with a four-assed Monkey's asses solo both the shitty Turok reskin and the kart racer without even using it's final form or it's bankai.
The questions can vary wildly on the "is this answerable by someone from 2022" scale, heavily depending on your knowledge of the early seasons of the show. The outdated celebrity trivia for the time being is probably only on a "4" at least compared to the "10", which would be the Capcom arcade title Quiz & Dragons where a low-level slime or a who-gives-a-shit orc could potentially devastate your entire party and rob you of your pocket change via asking shit like "what color were the drapes in the 1957 movie "Quest for Penis" starring Harvey Shitstain?". The downright mystifying type of lunacy that may as well had been the question asking me "how much methane does Eric Cartman produce in a day" or "what kind of porn do I (the trivia game) enjoy"?
Chef's Luv Shack is fun, but also unfortunately very anti-lone wolf and does not come with bots to play with you sans like two mini-games, because playing Warlords by yourself would be kinda pointless. It's fun for about half an hour tops once you cycled through all the games and chose the category "Robert Smith Kicking Ass" like six times (because why wouldn't you?), otherwise you'll be wishing there were three other people to play with to laugh along with to the idiocy that's provided and even then I think the questions start repeating pretty quick.
I know it comes off like I'm pulling your leg when I say that the "Spank The Monkey" game is better than the other two full release South Park games, but I'm frank as Frankenstein with that statement. It would've still been potentially a waste of money to buy this back then, but buying the FPS game or South Park Rally would've left the nicest of people in a terrible state of bloodlust smashing chairs over their pet's head due to the knowledge they spent money and precious time on those pieces of shit. I could be rating this game a bit high due to it's competition, but Chef's Luv Shack may as well be Spyro 2 or Attack of the Mutant Penguins compared to those other two loser games.

no idea why this is rated so poorly. it's a fucking hilarious time with friends
A weird mix of a quiz show with general knowledge, Mario Party-esque minigames all with a South Park coat of paint.
The biggest downfall of the game is that when playing single player the other characters don't fill in as CPUs, meaning you're basically answering questions and playing minigames to try and win against yourself.
If you can somehow get some friends together I could see this providing a tiny bit of fun. Especially when it came out.
