Before you play this game, there are a few things you need to know: 1. It's weeeiiiiiird. Very weird, and very niche. Basically you have to serve food for a bunch of people who are either collectively stoned or have gone collectively insane, speaking in nonsensical word salad with the occasional philosophical statement thrown in and demanding increasingly bizarre meals that I didn't think would be edible. 2. It's hard as hell, especially for completionists. There are 34 guests to serve, and while you only need 27 to advance, you get achievements for serving them all. Some meals are relatively easy, others are not. There are three difficulty settings, and while you can play most of the game on the easiest one, there's an achievement for beating the final challenge on hardmode, where the pan is completely flat. Also, the pan is VERY nonstick, so you have to be careful with ingredients slipping off. 3. The BEST way to play this game is to not play it all in one sitting, come back to harder parts later, and play with keyboard and mouse or (if compatible) motion controls. On keyboard you can adjust the sensitivity of the pan physics whenever you wish (just use the mouse wheel). It will be a LOT harder with a joystick. 4. Despite everything, the game is bizarrely fascinating. Like there are a number of times I wanted to ragequit but still kept coming back to it. Part of me wanted to beat the challenge rather than concede defeat, but I think another part of me was morbidly curious about the world I was in and who I was feeding. 5.Without spoiling anything, the ending of the game is satisfying and funny as hell. Even if the game was frustrating, the ending made everything worth it. Basically, I recommend this game to anyone who wants a good challenge or for people who want that stoned feeling.

This game was exactly what I needed on a Friday night. Finished it and I feel like I have become a better person. I have ascended to become one with the eggs.

Critical Reflex have been publishing some really wild games lately, including Buckshot Roulette, Mouthwashing, and this. While they're all pretty niche, this is by far the most esoteric and hardest to recommend of the bunch. This feels like a collection of grade school musings and shower thoughts inside of a digital dreamscape. Regardless, the gameplay itself is simple enough: cook what people request while progressing through more difficult cooking obstacles and challenges. That's the hardest barrier to recommending this: in addition to dealing with frustrating pan physics, you also have to cook a lot of inedible objects, from the weird to the disgusting to the maddening. By the time I reached double pufferfish (pincushions that bounce out of your pan) I was backtracking for easier cooking requests to hit my quota of 27. It's weird, it's unique, it's memorable. However it's questionable if it's worth the price. I like weird games like this and I'm glad I played it, but it's the most difficult to recommend of the three games mentioned above. Still, I'm looking forward to what Critical Reflex and what all of these devs are doing next. A mild recommendation for something so surreal; there's so many $10 games on Steam that there's probably something better on your wishlist at this price point.
