Cooking Mama World Kitchen
Mama and friends have a whole new look in Cooking Mama: World Kitchen, given the game’s upgrade to full 3D graphics. By utilizing the Wii Remote as a universal kitchen utensil, you can simulate actual cooking by chopping, grating, slicing, stirring and rolling your way through all new recipes that range from parfait to shrimp au gratin. Best of all, kitchen mistakes during meal preparation result in comedic mini-game surprises; for example, if you flip a burger too high, you can control Mama as she rushes in to save the day by catching it in her apron. Finally, a new game play mechanic integrates traditional Wii Remote utensil play with additional rhythm and motion that makes cooking easier and more enjoyable.
Share the cooking experience with Mama and all of her friends since everyone can now prepare meals in Mama’s kitchen. Mama’s friends will evaluate your meal once it’s made Comedic mini-games (i.e. flip a burger up in the air and Mama’s dog will run in and snatch it away; toss a pancake and control Mama as she runs in to save it with an apron catch) Save these surprise animations in an album you can review after gameplay Real-time effects make you feel like you’re actually cooking. Adjust your timing and make decisions about your next course of action based on what you see on screen (i.e. if food is starting to look burned, quickly remove it from the burner, etc.). Earn bronze, silver, and gold medals from Mama in Let’s Cook mode based on the quality of your cooking
User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Good Family Game
This is a great game the whole family can enjoy. Not a lot of instructions, kind of a learn by trial game.
5 Stars Superfun! The kids love it.
The kids just love cooking mama. You can’t go wrong getting this for any kid, any age really. This is a great alternative to all the blood/guts/war games out there. My kids are competitive and try to out cook each other all the time.
1 Star What in the world?
I agree with the other low-rating reviews here. This was my first venture into the Cooking Mama series, so I’m guessing the first ones were good enough to merit this poor sequel. This must be much easier on DS where you’re not relying on guessing the right motion! There is practically no instruction on what you are supposed to do in each step, and the manual is no help either. Does anyone know what the commentary says - I can’t understand the ‘Engrish!’ “Thas okay, Mama hep you”??
Thankfully I rented it for the half hour I tried to play it. Short sequence times, easy to fail, annoying minigames, frustrating, ugh!
4 Stars Fun game!
I bought this because I love cooking. It is hard and you do work up a sweat. It is hard doing some things and it is easy to fail. It is a great game though overall.
2 Stars Not really for adults
Well, personally I think this was a waste of money.
For a 25 year old male this game doesn’t offer anything.
The gameplay is so basic its just a big waste of money and time.
Now younger players might find this fun be we did not.
the multiplayer was also boring.
I will be selling my copy.
