1. [R1] 3/5 · US Ads, ads, ads! Money, money, money!: The game itself is challenging and fun. Unfortunately, unless you're willing to invest lots of real cash on boosters, you will spend most of your playing time watching ads in order to get ahead. As the game progresses, it becomes more and more difficult, and pretty soon it becomes pretty hard (and stressful) to pass the levels without help. There are cards
2. [R9] 5/5 · US Super fun game: This game is so fun. It’s just hard enough to where levels can be challenging at times but passable. Customers service is great too. I’ve reached out a couple times for different things and they’ve been quick, polite and helpful. I finished the game once already (took years because there are so many levels) and restarted it again because it’s so much fun.
3. [R34] 5/5 · US Great Game: I love this game. I’ve been playing it for years. It’s challenging at times and always entertaining.
4. [R128] 5/5 · GB Love this game: My mother plays this game and has played so many levels so i decided to try it, it’s so fun and challenging, deffo recommend it :)
5. [R33] 5/5 · US Amazing game!: This is by far one of the best cooking games I’ve ever played. The graphics, the cities, and really everything is high-quality! However, the “waiter” boost is extremely annoying. For instance, if you are on an only combo level or money level, this boost could possibly make you lose. It serves the food and drinks to the customers instantly which could ruin combos. I won’t bring my ra
6. [R84] 5/5 · US Combos and Gameplay: Overall this game is great. Compared to cooking fever (a similar game) I enjoy the much faster gameplay. You spend less time making the food and more time on how fast you can go. The world design and graphics are also very clean and striking. There’s a lot of different cuisines and multiple restaurants for each country. Ok, time for my issues. As you progress, you get bombarde
7. [R120] 5/5 · GB Amazing app!: This is one of the best games I have downloaded so far. I love how engaging it is and I can tell a lot of thought went into the creation of each city and the food on display. The graphics and music are excellent as well. 5/5 hands down!
8. [R259] 3/5 · AU Fun but annoying: This game is super fun to play and really entertaining when you’re bored. The layout, graphics and the different foods for different parts of the world make this game very attractive. However, the only downside is that even when you have upgraded a restaurant completely you still fall short on money or time when trying to complete certain level. This then requires you to cash out
9. [R3] 4/5 · US felt this needed to be addressed: I love this game. It’s honestly my favorite game on my ipad as currently, and I’ve been playing for years. however, one thing that always have bugged me is once you serve the customers, THEY STAY THERE & dance which is annoying when im doing a level that has a timer on it!!! it MAKES you lose when they’re taking up more time than they need to. since you serve them
10. [R10] 5/5 · US I love this game.: 10/10 game I have been playing for years.
11. [R16] 4/5 · US Great Game Minus Ads: I had this game since 2017. I beat all the levels and was too impatient to wait for new cities, so I reset the entire game. Unfortunately in doing so came some changes. I had paid to remove ads before, so now having ads is upsetting. I’d even be willing to pay again to remove ads as this is a game I constantly come back to play. I also don’t like the way they set up their m
12. [R4] 1/5 · US Way too many ads: This game used to be great but the amount of ads and the length of the ads cause app glitches and it’s very annoying.
13. [R6] 1/5 · US Added Ads: Have played this game off and on for years and just went to go play again and there’s ads after every level????
14. [R11] 1/5 · US Used to be my favorite game now I hate it: This has been my favorite game for almost a decade. The ads have gotten UNBEARABLE I used to only have to watch ads if I was doubling coins, but now I have to watch them after just about every level and I HATE it. I will not be playing this anymore. What a sad day because seriously it was My favorite game. Stupid ads.
15. [R23] 1/5 · US Lag after recent update: After the most recent update, there seems to be a lag in the game. When I click a food that is done cooking, there is a delay before it goes to the plate. Please fix!
16. [R27] 2/5 · US Sooooo glitchy!: I like this game but it doesn’t run well on iPad. I can play about 3 in a row and then it glitches out and I have to reload it. It’s too frustrating. I come back every few months to see if it’s been fixed and runs better but nope. Disappointing.
17. [R30] 4/5 · US Nice but glitchy!: I rlly enjoy this game, it’s probably one of the best cooking games I’ve ever played ! But there’s just one thing. It’s so glitchy! Plus there’s WAY too many ads which get annoying, especially if they r the same ads over and over again. My game always pauses randomly and freezes which also gets annoying. But overall I rlly enjoy this game!
18. [R32] 2/5 · US Always crashing: I love this came so much but it is constantly crashing. Like every level or every other level at least, the app just closes and I have to reopen it. If it weren’t for that, I would be absolutely obsessed. I think there is just too much happening in this app and I just want to do the levels. Maybe there is a simpler version out there.
19. [R13] 2/5 · US Meh: I bought the premium to get rid of the ads because I was playing it so much. However a lot of levels became near impossible to beat unless you use boosts, which I don’t do. If you’re looking for something fun, pass on this game. If you reach an impossible level, you run through your 5 lives and end up waiting foreeeverrr for another life. It’s STRESS INDUCING.
20. [R14] 1/5 · US Awful rigged unfair: Fun but obviously rigged so that limits the fun and basically makes it frustrating…don’t give this developer any money, if they treat the free players like this, they treat the paying players worse and giving them money won’t make it any more enjoyable or even fair, it just makes them richer
21. [R19] 1/5 · US Money grab game: Super fun game to play, however I have run across many levels that you can not win unless you use a boost. If you can not win the level, then you can’t move forward. Yes, you can use spoons to buy boosts and you get spoons throughout the game for free, but they will soon be used up with the boosts you have no choice but to use if you want to progress. Loved the game until I reali
22. [R7] 3/5 · US Any New Levels?: Fun game but it seems like new levels aren’t being added, which is disappointing. For the past year, I keep checking back to see new countries or something new, but alas no dice
23. [R8] 1/5 · US Need updates: Hasn’t been updates for a year I keep trying I did love this game but need new cities
24. [R18] 3/5 · US Add more cities: Add more cities! Austin, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Miami, Africa cities, even fast food type restaurants.
25. [R29] 4/5 · US Great but..: So fun to play! BUT it’s been a loonnngggg time since a new city has been added..
26. [R2] 1/5 · US Offers: I did a free off I did what I was supposed to do and there still refusing to give my offer this is the 2nd time…. All my data was wiped out after I had to update they refused to fix that… chat giving robotic answers. I’m starting to hate this game.
27. [R42] 2/5 · US New Delhi: I completed offers to get spoons and don’t get the rewards! What’s the point of having the offers then?
28. [R59] 1/5 · US FALSE FREE SPOONS!!!!: I subscribed to SiriusXM for free spoons and didn’t get my free spoons. I want my free spoons!
29. [R62] 1/5 · US Fun game but: It stops suddenly and is a money pit. Try to get free spoons but that doesn’t work either.
30. [R55] 2/5 · US turning off sound: this game is pretty fun in general and I have been having fun playing it, but there are some bugs. While I was playing the game, I would try to go back to the map and scroll back to previous levels and it would be stuck. I would not be able to go back to those levels the game itself wouldn’t be frozen but I couldn’t scroll back so I would have to leave the game and then start ag
31. [R64] 1/5 · US Cooking craze: I have been playing this game for several years and has always been my fave except for all the combo levels, but the last update really broke things for me. All of a sudden, I’m in New York, totally new format, and no way to go back to previous levels I have played, WTH. plus what happened with the side games, used to play them when I got frustrated with the combo levels, but they
32. [R88] 4/5 · US Frozen points: The game is fun, but this is the second time in the same world (Singapore - Level 106) I can’t move on. It doesn’t matter how fast I go the points are stuck and do not increase. It may be a glitch with the game that needs correction.
33. [R25] 4/5 · US Fun!: Love cooking games! Had to quit though after a certain level because I’m not built different 😔. But I like the music and the food looks yummy.
34. [R12] 3/5 · US Ads are too munch: I understand you need to have ads but this apps ads are excessive and long. Making longer ads does not persuade me to get what is being advertised.
