    Cooking Festival is a time management cooking game, similar to the popular Cooking Dash franchise and is also a mobile port. It is excessively long and does not offer anything unique to the genre, but it does provide a good, few hours of simple fun for those looking to scratch that cooking simulator itch. Pros Bright, colourful graphics Five different worlds with differing items to cook Simple click mechanics to appeal to all ages Cons Involves extreme grinding to…

    Management game, cooking, pastime, The aim of the game is to prepare lots of dishes with recipes from all over the world, you don't have to manage just a restaurant but open a chain of restaurants that deal with different kinds of food: Spaghetteria, Sandwich shop, Ice cream parlor, Pizzeria, Pastry, and more .. .. You have the stove and the food you have to cook and put on the plates, the pace is quite frenetic because in the first levels of each restaurant the customers are few, but then…

    Colourful time management cooking sim As of the date of this review, achievements are not activating Cooking Festival is a mobile port of a time management cooking sim developed by Boombit. This is a mobile port with no in-app purchases, but there are echoes of the mobile port in daily gifts and power ups. At each new location, it brings a new assortment of food and drinks for you to serve. Any appropriate toppings, once clicked, are automatically added to the correct item. Only finished…

    Very ordinary and slow game. Very slow to get ahead, i have to wait till the next day by getting the daily gift, to add coins to upgrade features, to try and move forward. Don't bother. Also very expensive for what it is.

    Thought this game would be fun to play and occupy time. It started off that way and it was fun to play. I got through the Pancake house (first restaurant) fine. Second restaurant (burgers and ribs) is where the trouble started. I have played for 3 hours now and was so loving the game. Very simple yet enjoyable creating food. But this second restaurant.... if you are not fast enough, you are done. So this is where I now sit, deciding if I will play this game again. Usually if you stumble, you…

    Fun game and has potential....BUT it has FLAWS! VIDEO REVIEW HERE: https://youtu.be/d7T1c6Tljts HUGE FLAW One thing I noticed is the mouse click activation is based on when mouse click is RELEASED and not when PRESSED. This means that when you click on an item it wont register unless you CLICK and RELEASE in he same area. This makes the game frustrating to play at times when clicks don't register. This can lead to miss clicks as shown in the video. Simple fix is to active on click press…

    The game is overall great. Detail went into every aspect of the game. The more you play the game has a lot of surprises. In the future when they update can you included more cities please.

    the levels are challenging enough to keep it interesting, and its not too difficult - nor does it require money to be dumped into it like mobile versions. its a very fun game - great value ♥

    Do not buy this. The misclicking is enraging. Than I tried to play for the achievements just to discover the achievements simply don't work. Waste of money, time and patience, this game should be banned from the plataform.

    A very basic time management cooking game. Decent enough graphics, but with it being a port from a mobile game I think there are some issues with the change to PC. It doesn't count selecting items requiring you to click multiple times, which in a timed situation is not what you want. Also the diffiiculty level between the first and second restaurant IN THE FIRST WORLD is ridiculous like... I've been playing these kind of games for years and I struggled.

    BTW, I love this game so much that this is my first ever game review I've left. I ABSOULETLY LOVE THIS GAME!!!!!!! It has become one of my top favorite games! It does get challenging, at times, but what game doesn't. A tip I have would be to upgrade the things that increase in cost first. I didn't do that at first and if I had it would've been much easier/faster to progress. I also found an issue in a later restaurant and wanted to share how you can fix it... DIM SUM FIX! I reached Dim…

    I find this kind of game really fun. But I'm pretty sure it is just a port from a mobile game. They haven't updated it in years. Unfortunately it is seriously broken. When you get to Hong Kong, the Dim Sum restaurant has a tutorial that freezes the game. You cant progress any further. They have to know about this flaw as it is in the community discussions. But they don't fix it. Too bad. They fixed the Dim Sum Bar tutorial freeze! with the 12/12/25 update! Finally! Thank you developers. I am…

    The clicking spaces sometimes bug out, hindering production and losing time. The sizzling sound effect also often glitches to continuously make the sound, causing me to keep the game muted. It would be fun otherwise.

    I really wanted to like this game, because it is similar to other games that I have played on mobile and the switch which I have enjoyed. Unfortunately, the controls feel clunky, and the main levels really aren't all that challenging. Also the people don't come in at a cadence that makes getting the bonus feasable unless you make them lose a bit of patience. Lower on the annoyances is that the achievements didn't unlock on steam. I could forgive that if that was the only issue though.

    Ok, I got this game ages ago. I haven't played in a log time. I just redownloaded it and gave it a try. You can not reset your game! there is only one player and no way to reset the progress, so i have no idea what i am doing. Besides that, it's a fun game if you like this type.

    One of quite a few games at the minute that are not allowing achievements to drop. If, like me, you are an achievement hunter, don't bother til it is fixed.

    Achievements do not work for people since over a year and I guess none is really after fixing that issue. Besides that I'd say the game is okay. I will give a thumb down tho, because of not caring Developers.

    If you ever played Cooking Fever on mobile or similar game in Flash years ago then you might already know what this game is. Very simple clicking game to cook meals across MANY levels and restaurants. The core difference from other possible iterations of it is that here you can just get it super cheap on sale and have zero worry about pesky ads, locked stuff behind premium currency and anything else that a mobile counterpart would bane you with. Even though there is a special currency and a…

    Although i enjoy the game there is a glitch that makes it impossible to play. I have contacted developer and he ignored me completely THUMBS DOWN!---And the glitch was finally fixed but you can play it only once, when I tried to restart and play again I could not. I found an information about how to do by removing a file manually but guess I can\t do it because i have now a new PC and there is no file I thought that I bought a game to play as many times I like not only once.

    This game is a lot of fun and challenging. It took me a minute and several tries to get a rhythm but have now finished the game and wish there was more. It's great if your listening to a book and need something to do with your hands.
