I don't think every genre needs the rougelike treatment, but throwing those elements into OVERCOOKED leads to a pretty fun spin on the formula! I like that this expands the concept beyond the kitchen, where the whole restaurant needs to be managed and addressed at all times.

Cooking is simple and gets progressively complicated in a fair way. Having to strategize which restaurant upgrades you'll take adds a nice layer to the proceedings. I played with a friend and it's a lot of fun to decide what steps to take day by day. Another reviewer noted it would be nice to expand the restaurant out with further successes and I wholeheartedly agree.

Charming AND challenging. A very fun game to play!
