A very positive score would be better suited to this game. Overwhelmingly positive is just ain't it.
People seem to thirst over how cool the game is and I must admit the game mechanics are quite novel and addictive. Sadly developers chose to implement time pressure into the core mechanic which works against the puzzle-like system. It would be much more enjoyable if they found out another ways to limit the player's power in cooking battles instead of time pressure.
And even though the art style is cool I simply could not get into the story nor the characters of the game. I grew up reading ungodly amount of text in cRPGs in my youth so it is not a "me" problem. The whole writing is like a filler episode of an anime.
And one look at the achievements after 3 hours made me realize I must spend dozens of hours to grind needlessly hard achievements to 100% and I simply cannot push myself through the slog.
If you are "relaxed" and have enough time to waste you can play through the campaign once but I simply do not see any reason to do so.
Would give a thumbs up if it were less sweaty, substantially shorter and better written.
