2 out of 5 stars Not really what i thought it would be...   July 29, 2008
This is not a game you can play over and over again and not get bored. Once you know how to stir, cut, mix etc it pretty much is the same except for the steps in the actual cooking process. That applies to the cooking process too, cause it can't be different each time around for the same dish. A video clipping from amazon would have helped the decision process.
The graphics definitely is a weak point. If the game had options to create your own recipes would have been great to challenge friends. Like other games it should have had levels of difficuilty for any dish. That would make it a little more interesting. Other games also maintain your skill level and that could have very well been incorporated too(brain academy for example). All in all the creators need to put their thinking hats on to keep the gamer engaged. Thats key when you have a hand held. I would not recommend this game.

** I'm not sure how much the cooking mama II game is going to address. I'm big into cooking and hosting parties and this game was a let down, maybe i had high expectations.



4 out of 5 stars Fun at First   June 26, 2008

It's fun but if you overplay it gets boring. The food is mostly stuff I've never heard of. It's pretty easy though. I would say ages 7-13??


4 out of 5 stars Fun, but don't overplay it or it gets boring   May 25, 2008

This is really fun! You can cook tons of both weird food, and normal food. But I'm warning you, if you play it too much, it can get really boring, really quickly. If you're looking for a fun game for the Nintendo DS, then I suggest buying this game.


4 out of 5 stars For pre-teens   May 8, 2008

This game is probably best for pre-teens because it can become very repetitive and doesn't allow you to combine multiple dishes. Beware of scratching your Nintendo DS screen when "whisking" ingredients together.



4 out of 5 stars We all love cooking!   April 24, 2008
I bought this game for my daughter at Christmas time. It is really fun and I started borrowing her ds so i could play it. She left it in my car so i took into work on my lunch break and cooked up some new dishes. It is fun and it does teach you some simple things and how you have to do different steps to create a meal. I want to get me, I mean my daughter Cooking mama 2 because this game is so fun. My only complaint is sometimes you are following the instuctions but for some reason it doesn't flip the meat or stir sometimes. Overall, it is fun and can be entertaining for a long time. Even loverboy likes to play it!
