Developed by Ghost Town games and published by Team 17, Overcooked is an action-cooking game with a focus on teamwork. The object of the game is complete as many order as possible in 4 minutes. You'll be cooking soups, burgers, pizzas, burritos, and more. Each level has a very different layout, and this keeps the game interesting throughout it's 30 levels. You have to consider the position the cutting boards, stoves, ovens, serving windows and sinks. Oh and you'll be doing dishes, fighting rats, and negotiating obstacles and hazards. The difficultly and complexity steadily builds, and becomes just shy of overwhelming.

If playing solo, you can choose to control chefs by switching, or controlling both chefs with your left and right hand, which is extremely challenging, and I'm glad they included it. If playing with a friend, you both control you own chef, but one or both of you can choose control two as well. The controls themselves are basic enough to be enjoyed by casuals, with the third button being used to pick up, take action, and dash. Picking up and placing dishes and food can sometimes be cumbersome, especially when there's a lot of food on the floor.

The game can be enjoyed by 1 to 4 people, and it's recommended you find a partner if you want to get the most out of this game. It really is rewarding being able to bridge communication gaps with people in the room while you're trying to figure out the most effective way to 3-star the levels. But if you don't have any friends, the 1 player mode is still satisfying, There's also a local competitive mode that's just as fun and hectic, I just really wish there were an online mode. Also there's no leaderboards, which diminishes some of the replay value once you get 3 stars. Overall, Overcooked provides a heated experience that's best enjoyed with a friend, and if you'd have an experience that you'd like to share, be sure start a dialogue in the comment section. UPDATE: Free extra levels thanks Ghost Town! B+
