The gameplay grows on you. It finds enough ways to be different, in terms of making you cook things, without over complicating. There are some fun cooking gauntlets also and failure is never punished.

This is a short film as a game, part of the interactive layer is evocative -- storytelling through food -- but the wider visual novel stuff is somewhat lacking. It is about important stuff but it goes for blunt rather than evocative at all points. It just goes through so many things and has no choice but to put character on the back seat and to state big things very clearly -- too many events too little time.

Good and thought provoking content done overly directly.
