edit: although progression is shared badge completion is separate between characters. changing review to positive. thank you devs for listening! broke the progression system by sharing it across all characters. what's the point of playing any character besides the best now? will change my review if this change is backed out.

Listen, This game is worth the money. There is a reason why most reviewers have played for hours and hours. Its because this game is genuinely fun and makes you think. People may dislike some aspects of it because it may seem difficult at times, but that is exactly why it is fun. When you figure out how to beat a level it feels awesome. This isn't like typical tower defence games where you make your towers so OP every level is easy. You have to be strategic. So bravo developers. Keep going! I just wished the mix reviews were more fair. You guys know you had fun playing this, why downvote it after so long. Thats not cool. Anyway, I got my money's worth thats for sure. 20 bucks for 55 hours is 0.36 cents an hour lol. I had fun!

I like that the game gives you random upgrade and receipt in every stage, so that you won't be bored by preparing the same receipt again and again. And the game provide you multiple character with different ability to increase its playability. The game is somewhat challenging and requires you to set up the kitchen smartly, otherwise it really become a "kitchen crisis". Tips for the player is to lock or trap the character in a certain place so that it won't walk around the whole kitchen to help preparing different receipts. I believe the uncontrollable AI of the character is one of the game's selling point >.<

ETA: Days later, they've already added mid-run saves <3 Weirdly addicting time-destroyer. Didn't expect much going in but I'm really enjoying it. The only issue I currently have - not being able to save mid run - has already been mentioned as something the devs are working on. Do recommend :)

This is a fantastic mix of TD and puzzle/automation. I've seen a lot of comments in the discussion boards about people being frustrated about not being able to assign their chefs to different recipes so I figured I'd mention here that not being able to do that is the point. I'd suggest blocking off your chefs so they only have access to the ingredients and appliances for a single recipe to maintain good efficiency. Otherwise the chefs might wander and work at various cooking stations. Have no fear though the game is smart. If different appliances or ingredients aren't being used efficiently they will give you warnings and tell you exactly how much time is being wasted. I kinda think of it as a puzzle game at the same time as being a TD. Getting that out of the way now I feel like I should mention the vast amount of replay-ability this game has. There are over 20 stages to beat and 10 different chefs to play as. Each chef starts at stage 1 individually so that's over 200 stages. On top of that the rougelike side of the game makes it so even if you did the same stage multiple times it will be completely different due to there being a lot of different recipes to cook at various difficulty levels. Id give this game a solid 8/10 and I don't play many TD's though i am a big fan of rouglikes.
