TLDR: If you really want to enjoy the game as a casual, don't aim for 3 stars. This game will not only challenge but also frustrate you. This is NOT A COZY CO-OP game. Originally, did not recommend this game cause of the bugs such as frequent disconnects and getting stuck on cook stations, which have since been fixed by the developers. The developers are actually actively listening and fixing any bugs so that's …

I've been waiting for SEDAP since it was announced last year, and honestly... IT WAS SO WORTH THE WAIT! 😍 As a Malaysian, I'm super proud of this game. It’s so cool to see Southeast Asian food and culture represented like this! Not only is it really fun to play, but the art style is just too cute. 🥹 Everything feels alive and full of character. Compared to games like Overcooked, there’s so much more depth here—it …

Do I recommend this game? Yes. Does that mean this is a good game? Absolutely NOT. Me and my friend played the demo and we are super invested, we got the game right after it launched. But we are both left with mixed feeling about it. We tried to play trough the whole game but we cannot get through the final boss because them UI of the mini game is broken. Not to mention the countless bugs we encountered throughout …

Game Review: SEDAP! A Culinary Adventure ⭐ 9/10 Okay, this game hits so many of my favorite things at once it almost feels unfair. SEDAP! A Culinary Adventure is fast-paced, chaotic in the fun way, food-focused, and packed with Asian cuisine — and honestly? I loved it from start to finish. The core gameplay is such a good mix of cooking and combat. You’re fighting, you’re gathering, you’re cooking under pressure, …

A very unique Overcooked style co-op game with some additions like a combat system, collecting ingredients and some QTEs while cooking. Keep up the good work, much support for the genre!

positive · AI labelView post →Another game I'm reluctantly being dragged through by my partner, in saying that, the game is fun. Much more enjoyable than any other cooking related game. I even found myself wanting to play it after work. The launch wasn't great but the devs have been incredibly transparent and are absolutely smashing out bug fixes. The mixed reviews are definitely understandable BUT primarily from a certain group of gamers that make it obvious it's about more than the game. I absolutely recommend giving…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Imagine Overcooked but on some kind of hypothetical double nightmare difficulty. Just completing later levels without missing orders is virtually impossible. Each level requires two people to continuously perform near frame perfect inputs in unison for five minutes or so. - Every single level adds a new recipe, and the recipes build on top of one another. Most levels involve making 6+ completely different recipes, which may include variations on recipes. You will never master the rhythm of how…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Me and my friend were excited for this game launch because of the SEA elements, and we want to support fellow SEA brethren. But oh my god this game was stressing us out. It's not a cosy game at all. We struggled to get three stars even on the early stages because there are so many things to do in such a short time. Making tea is complicated. And then you have to run around just to catch chilli, have to have strong martial skill to beat up chicken. Man... we really thought this was a fun time…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Please wait for later upcoming changes then play. Currently the game have too many bugs. Some of the maps are too difficults and i suggest having a minimap to show where the ingredients are for better navigation. The gameplay is fun, but i suggest some gameplay balance changes (showing minimap, show more orders in advance) for more convenient gaming experience, and need to fix all of the bugs issue first.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremely annoying bugs and crashes. Controller and menus do not work well sometimes. Unable to swap characters. Game constantly disconnects/ looses connection with host. Concept is nice and gameplay is not bad, the bugs are just a major mood killer, happens too frequently.

neutral · AI labelView post →This is a cute game, but honestly it's not worth playing objectively. The RPG elements are very neat, but when this game boils itself down to just Overcooked with additional annoyances in running around a bigger map with combat, it's not very innovative or fun. You're stuck memorizing where everything is and that's just how you play every stage. This is more a memory game than a fun cooking game. If you have a friend who would be down to play this with you, it's somewhat fun. But if you're…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a very charming, uniquely Latam, hectic cooking game and I'm so glad I found it. I was hesitant to try it because of the 'Mixed' review score but once again, Steam reviews prove to be utterly worthless for appraising games. The primary complaints I see are: 1) It's not cozy — I personally don't care. Cozy games are boring. 2) It's too difficult — there's an easy mode 3) It's too hectic for two people — has not been my experience. Before each level, both players can look over the entire…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Early game is pretty fun, Overcook equivalent but more cooking ingredients coordination-heavy. Mid-game difficulty was more about if Overcook spread out all their equipments and ingredients acrossed 2-3 times the stage size.... I spend more time walking around the map and finding where things are than actually playing a cooking game. i lost interest in the game when it became more like a memory game of where things are at than a cooking game. Great potential, but increasing difficulty by…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"A Culinary Catastrophe: SEDAP! Leaves a Bitter Taste" From the outset, SEDAP! A Culinary Adventure promises a delightful fusion of cooking and combat set against a Southeast Asian backdrop. However, the reality is a disjointed mess that fails to deliver on its core concepts. Gameplay Mechanics: The game's attempt to blend cooking mini-games with hack-and-slash combat results in a confusing and unsatisfying experience. The cooking mechanics are shallow, offering little challenge or…

I was exhausted, thirsty, and needed a place to rest. The scent drew me closer. Pushing through the forest ferns, there I saw her, Merapi. She stood beside two small chefs. She’s giving them orders. “TWO MANGO SALADS! PICK UP THE PACE SOM! NO BROTHER OF MINE IS THIS SLOW!” shouted Merapi. “Coming coming!”, replied Som. Gom looked annoyed, “Merapi, the mangos have yet to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't believe this game hasn't blown up. Overcooked focused around southeast asian dishes with a monster hunting twist? It works as great as it sounds. Me and my brother are absolutely blown away with the visuals, gameplay (ever dish feels unique) and the monsters. 10/10 would recommend.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm writing this review having played the entire game in co-op via steam remote play, so I can't speak for solo play, or normal online co-op. TLDR: As of the version I played this game was very stable, loads of fun, and DEFINITELY CHALLENGING! if you're an overcooked fan you can have a lot of fun here 👍 My playthrough is as of version 1.0.7b, my friend is terrible at the combat stuff, so they played Som but were still able to fight most things well enough, while I handled the tougher…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Poor game design, I wonder if the team ever played some of the levels themselves. It is almost impossible to finish on time. This is not a fun challenge anymore, it is pure amateur and hostile.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →--- Only played solo --- Beat the forest, the first area, all 3-star so feels like I've got the gist of it. It's a really good Overcooked style game, although you have fighting it's really not that different, it's just a different way of playing with the level layout as part of the challenge. Instead of skirting the edges of the map trying not to fall off or waiting for map parts to be traversable, it's instead about remembering placements of certain animals and ingredients and doding their…

This is one of the most challenging cooking games I have played, but it is definitely worth the playthrough. It took about 40 hours of playtime for me to complete all achievements for solo and multiplayer, but I didn't think that any of the challenges were particularly unreasonable. While it definitely takes good communication to…

With skill and real cooperation you can get 3 purple stars pretty much every level till the 3 biome first try. It's an amazing twist that makes you REALLY cooparate with someone and actually think of the order of things you can get and do the fastest. Minigames make it way more than just mashing buttons, even though they are simple it's engaging. You can really make a load out that favors your…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun concept, but still a bit rough around the edges Been playing SEDAP! with my partner — we love the idea of gathering ingredients, fighting off enemies, then cooking together. It’s a fun co-op experience! That said, there are still a lot of bugs. The game lags sometimes, characters get stuck, and controllers can be hard to connect. Even just getting through the lobby is tricky with the pointer jumping around. Some level design stuff is frustrating too — the spike traps are way too fast,…

If you have been looking for something to scratch that overcooked itch, this game will definitely do that! It's really fun and I do think the mechanics make it stand out from its inspiration. I do think that the game is difficult and could use some…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Seeing a lot of reviews about the difficulty - as an avid cooking game gamer playing with a friend, it's the right amount of challenge for us, and personally do not feel the need to make it easier! We only need to replay the level a couple times to get a perfect score. The game lacks a bit of UI polish, it feels a bit rough without the minor menu transition effects or small animations/sound effects. If that is added, it would make the game feel a little more complete.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is such a beautiful game! This is my first time playing a cooking game like this, and it's quite easy to get the hang of the controls and such! I love the diversity of the food here, and the fresh gathering of ingredients by directly killing it. xD The UI is clean, and the artwork is beautiful! There's a slight issue on multiplayer which freezes when we click on the adventure map, and some of the UI not working after alt-tabbing. All in all, this is a good game and I really see a lot of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Have spent tons of waking moments playing SEDAP! since it released and have enjoyed myself a lot! The hectic kitchen management of ingredients, paired with the need to hunter-gatherer said ingredients yourself, lends to an amazing gameplay loop that scratches that itch of running around and doing things. My inner min-maxer and ADHD reptile mind is most satisfied with this. The aesthetic of the game is great too, a distinct visual style that really screams comfy (though when I have to fight…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Stunning love letter to Southeast Asia's deeply-embedded culinary culture, and you'd love it even if you weren't from the region. And it was made by a tiny team of 3, 4 people over the past few years? There will be comparisons to Overcooked, but I genuinely enjoy more so far - less annoying level hazards/arbitrary obstacles, and more interactive elements like having to literally fight for your ingredients with the local flora and fauna. Incredible hand-drawn art, appropriate music,…

The patches have fixed most of the problems. It should improve to have more ways to complete the phases, more options to what to upgrade.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I absolutely love co-op games with a cute art-style look. To add to that, I'm from Southeast Asia and the game features Southeast Asian cuisines. It's pretty much a no-brainer for me to purchase this game. Initially, we were cruising through the levels quite easily, however as we progressed, it just became so difficult, to a point where we became so overwhelmed and completely stopped playing (on level 2-11). It's nice that we get to upgrade our weapons/cooking tools and carry things that…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Overcooked with SEA cuisine but you play as a Hunter and a Cook instead of just Cooks, and each map has a different layout (thus the "learning gap" for each level will be much bigger compared to Overcooked) !! You can skip the dialogue by holding Q, no where in the game says this !! Do note that if you want to play with keyboards, the default controls are not quite optimal For solo single player, I bind Space to interact, RMB/LMB to dash and attack So far the game is good, needs more…

neutral · AI labelView post →The ingredients introduced after few levels are very hard to discern visually with graphics used.. at this point overcooked is much easier and adding recipes on top of each other just to make the game difficult with no proper reason at all.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game was definitely a little undercooked and sketchy on the technical side when I first played it but there have been several updates since then that fixed the main problems I was having. Bugs aside, I had a lot of fun playing this game with a friend so I would recommend it to others seeking Overcooked-like games. I particularly liked that each player has a specialized role in the team and that each dish has its own minigame to play.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's pretty good! Busier than an average game in the subgenre as cooking involves mini-games and you have to gather the ingredients too. So you might need some chicken for a dish, but you'll have to fight the chicken first. There are some novelties here - e.g. both ingredients and cooked dishes will spoil if left outside for too long, so you don't typically stockpile things beyond the current orders, and neither do you really have to. The game had some issues with occasional disconnection at…
