The newest gameplay addition are the holding stations, which allow you to prep things during down time so that they are ready when the customers start lining up.Ĭooking games, if done well, are generally a blast. It also has added greater difficulty control (so you can opt to play casually sometimes, and crazy difficult other times), co-op support, and a campaign that the developers report takes 60+ hours to complete. While the original game had 30 different food options for you to make in your restaurant, the sequel has 180. Leave it to Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!! to take the original scope and greatly increase it. It is a frenetic, satisfying game that finds that perfect sweet spot of “zen” that some timing based games achieve. Before long, you have to prepare five star meals to perfect specifications. As your restaurant starts bringing in more money and richer clientele, your repertoire needs to improve. The game starts simple, with basic foods like corn dogs and pretzels, but the difficulty quickly ramped up. In the original game, players took control of the chef owner of a small restaurant, juggling kitchen chores with preparing meals for an ever-increasing line of customers.

The sequel, understandably named Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!!, just released on Steam and looks to take the strengths of the original and turn them up to eleven. Cook, Serve, Delicious! was (and still is) a great little indie game that combined charming art, an interesting theme, and a frenetic pace to make for a ton of fun.
