  1. [R2] Royal Cooking 5/5 · US Healthy Distraction: This is fun, relaxing, interactive, interesting, satisfying, creative and boosts your attention to detail:)
  2. [R9] Royal Cooking 3/5 · US Coins: This game is super fun, one of the best cooking games I’ve played in a while. But the thing is, once you start leveling up, the upgrades get more expensive and harder to afford because your food prices aren’t increasing unless you buy the upgrades. Once you get past level 100, the “hard” levels get nearly impossible even with huge combos unless you buy coins from the shop.
  3. [R28] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US Blah game: Game lacks diversity. They included a patronizingly overweight one like the micro aggression wasn’t obvious. Wish I could say I was surprised but then I looked at where the developer was from. Shocker /s
  4. [R34] Royal Cooking 5/5 · US Love This Game: I enjoy this game cause it keeps me on my toes and working lol
  5. [R3] Royal Cooking 3/5 · US Higher rewards: Your rewards need to be higher then a couple hundred. I’d like to be able to play some levels where I can get a full upgraded kitchen but getting the rewards sometimes isn’t worth it. It’s a fun game and I like it but getting these measly rewards is almost not worth it
  6. [R6] Royal Cooking 3/5 · US pay to win garbage: it seems cheap to pay the .99 for no ads and some coins but there comes a point where you can’t afford any upgrades and you have no abilities left and you just have to give them money or watch ads to keep playing. it’s insane how many apps get away with this constantly.
  7. [R10] Royal Cooking 2/5 · US Pay to play: You have to pay at a certain point in the game. Over it.
  8. [R16] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US It doesn't even open. · translated
  9. [R17] Royal Cooking 5/5 · US Unfair: I’m only giving this game a 5 star because want people to see it. I really do like the game, but when I paid to remove the ads, they made it much harder for me to actually win the games and I feel like they want me to pay for more coins versus giving me the option to watch the ads or not. This game is much better when you’re playing with ads. So in my opinion, it takes away from the game.
  10. [R37] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US Money grab: Horrible game. Takes money then the game glitches. It's a money grab. Don't do it
  11. [R50] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US Frustrating: Doesn’t work properly and the higher you get the more it glitches
  12. [R15] Royal Cooking 3/5 · US Fun, but…: It’s a super fun game and the 0.99 is worth no ads, however the super hard levels are too hard. I’ve been stuck on the same level for days now because I don’t have enough coins to upgrade my equipment so I can pass the level. You get 0 coins if you lose the level, which keeps you having to watch ads (at 250 coins per ad) to progress. When the upgrades cost 9000+ coins to purchase, it ta
  13. [R22] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US money grab: They intention make you loss certain rounds so the only way for you to pass it is to purchase add ons or use all your coins because every single things cost a crazy amount of coins. The goal here is to make you spend money. 10/10 do not recommend. I will be deleting this app.
  14. [R30] Royal Cooking 3/5 · US Super fun, but they trick you into paying: So I really like this game it’s really fun, except when you get to level 40 or 41 all of a sudden right before that you see that all of the Watch ad to get extra coins disappears and level 40 or 41 is impossible to beat without certain upgrades it doesn’t matter how much you try you will not pass. You will have to put money in to move forward. I realize t
  15. [R45] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US SCAM: I am giving this a one star because I am disappointed at how much of a scam they are. I am on level 59 and they made the upgrades very expensive and almost hard to obtain the coins to purchase upgrades. At level 59, i screenrecorded the game to see how they purposely make you not pass this level. I would get the first set of mega combo and at mega combo 9, they will reset it to 1 even though
  16. [R47] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US Fun at First, Top Ups Basically Required // AI GENERATED IMAGES CONFIRMED: Although this game is easy enough at first with levels resetting at around every 30 levels which is cool, it does get to a point where you will need to buy coins in order to not only keep up your streak but to also just simply be able to pass a level the first time. I hope the developers understand to at least make it ha
  17. [R1] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US Royal Cooking: Lies and 1 ⭐️ I understand and understood no ads, no WiFi just as the others same lies. You get loaded with ads, and with no WiFi can’t get to the next level. I deleted the game.
  18. [R4] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US Ads: Too many ads
  19. [R7] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US 🙄: Puros anuncios!
  20. [R11] Royal Cooking 4/5 · US OK: I absolutely love this game! the only thing that i would change is the ads of course! Otherwise, the game is amazing! Anyone who likes serving and cooking should try it out!
  21. [R13] Royal Cooking 1/5 · US Not worth it: I downloaded this game yesterday. Once you get around level 20 the games makes you get no ads otherwise you are watching an ad after every level you beat. Then once you go onto the next food chapter its impossible to win without the upgrades and the game provides no opportunity to win money even if you lose a level. Ive been stuck on level 50 because I don’t want to have buy coins so
  22. [R44] Royal Cooking 5/5 · US The bets game: THIS IS THE GOAT AND IS SO SO FUN TO PLAY AND THIS GAME DOES NOT NEED NO WIFI YOU CAN PLAY ANYWHERE I PLAYED ON A 12 HOUR PLANE AND I DID NOT GET BROED AT ALL!
