Enjoyed the demo quite a lot and bought during introductory offer. However, I expected much more content than actually got. In short: fun little game for two people for two hours. Four worlds of five levels each, with increasing complexity. The originality wears off around the end of the game. Would rather buy a DLC with more levels than with cosmetics, and support for more than two players or a proper clarification …

An extremely fun game, playing with a friend should be mandatory, playing alone is cool but with a friend is very cool, it is very similar to the proposal of overcooked, but the game is very original and unique. I highly recommend playing and getting to know it.

Played the game entirely coop with a buddy, and for a few bucks at 3.5 hours of entertainment this is an excellent purchase. If you like management games like Overcooked or Plate Up, this is a fun afternoons worth of entertainment. Looking forward to what comes next from the developers.

Fun game in spirit of Overcooked. Short but sweet.

neutral · AI labelView post →This game is very charming both in its design and gameplay. It kinda reminds me of Overcooked but in 2D and you play as cute adorable monsters with many cosmetics to buy and customize! Even the levels are a bit challenging as you progress but completing it is so satisfying. If they do make more levels along with more DLCs in the future, this game will definitely be enjoyable for many newcomers who wants to give this game a try!

With vibrant graphics, frenetic gameplay, and a lively soundtrack, the game offers increasing challenges and plenty of creativity in recipes, such as "fried pigeons with ketchup" and "scorpions in house sauce (hehe)." While the repetition in longer levels is a minor downside, the comical tension of serving…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Def a game to get on sale, but quite a fun afternoon game to grind out 100% with a friend! <3 With story or more features, I'd say the full price would be worth it but as of now, no.

neutral · AI labelView post →Kind of like a really simple version of Plate Up. It's not a bad game, exactly, just very simple. Cannot change keyboard mapping. No sense of progress (looks like all the upgrades are just aesthetic things). I see that there's a sequel planned for this, which looks to address the upgrades issue / sense of progress. I'll plan on checking that one out, but gonna give this particular one a pass.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Monster Meals is a cooperative cooking and time-management game developed by Giant Warrior Studio and published by GoGo Games Interactive. Instead of placing players in an ordinary restaurant, it embraces a delightfully strange premise where a team of monster chefs runs a traveling food truck that serves bizarre dishes to an equally unusual clientele. The colorful pixel-art presentation immediately gives the game a playful personality, while its unconventional recipes and quirky humor help…

neutral · AI labelView post →I really enjoy how the game feels and controls, reminds me many other cooking games but I really love the uniqueness of the style and overall meals are severed in game. Its very different from traditional cooking games. I am looking forward to the full release of the game and play it more with friends and audience members. I give Monster Meals 4 out of 5 Delicious Meals!
