Chef Life A Restaurant Simulator Honest REVIEW 

really great detailed video ! simulator games are extremely underrated

I'm gonna give it to Cyanide Studios, It might not be perfect, but at least they are miles ahead of the mass majority of "simulators" that come out these days. Plus it's always nice to see studios focus on niché games instead of going for another shooter or RPG.

I'm an actual cook and I can say, I truly loved this game from the get go

Just bought this for my xbox series x, i bloody love it ❤

Great, informative review - thank you!

The game is absolutely wonderful, got it thanks to You and I`m having a blast.

Thank you so much for this review. I've been interested in this game a while but there's so many things that can make or break simulation games, and I find lately too many just ruin what I'm looking for. This game looks intense. It's on a really good sale right now but, I might hold off just yet as all the things you've listed are definitely things that would frustrate me and probably ruin my experience a fair bit. Maybe on a bigger sale I'll still reconsider it.

Been playing it for a bit... its very addicting 😂

As Hobby cook myselfe, i had to buy it. What can i say. Game's compleatly mental.👍👍 Right my cup of tea. Had a bluescreen yesterday (ps4) and a some bits a odd but i'm looking forward they'll fix it. ⭐⭐ For now.

Co op would be fun.. missed oppertunity.

um, if you want to take green beans from a pot that's got 4 and is on the warmer... you do NOT have to take it off the warmer and take the beans and put it back... you can just hit 'e' to open the menu where you would add something to the bottom of the warmer... then push 'up' like, up toward the pot, which will select the pot, and now you can take beans out of it with spacebar like normal. i was annoyed they didn't put that in the tutorial, cuz it took me a while to notice.

I wish they had more different types of food from different countries

Would this still be your opinion of the game? the games on sale down to £20 and I was thinking about buying it but wanted to see others opinions on it first. From what I can tell just watching it does look pretty good

I think you are wrong about having to remove a pot from the warmer in order to take a portion out? I can take a portion of green beans while the pot remains on the warmer, but I find the controls a bit weird, tbh.

Good game, very fun but its strange its not a sandbox or atleast have that option. Most is very forced no skip tutorial (very outdated not to have that in a simulator especially) Personal you can hire is limited and forced story based. The first couple of dishes you unlock is forced, hell pretty much the direction of dishes you unlock is in a forced kinda order since its level based with not alot of variation along the road untill later. Again its really fun but its a shame ur not free to do anything, you cant really specialized in anything since you kinda have to grind their unlock-dish-list. You cant grow at the paste you like have to follow the story. You cant even controle the amount of dishes on ur list for the evening, cant have a pancake burger or spaghetti night for fun cause you NEED 3 dishes at least yadayada, now that doesnt matter all that much but it does feel forced. That does bring it down alot.

I'm not sure a developer called Cyanide should have anything to do with cooking, honestly XD

How would you say this game compare to cooking simulator? They both cost the same rn and im unsure which one to get

Could u make bbq and soul food type of restaurant???

I would love a first person/VR modes

Did they changed some of the problems? This video is 10 month old

Fun to play on ps5, but unplayable after lvl 20. Data corrupts and is deleted every time. Tried 5 different times, and each time corrupted and deleted.

Can you play on the switch lite

Just like The Sims 4 but cooking..

I think some of your criticisms of this game are unfair. Your problems come from a lack of knowledge of the game rather than the game itself. You can take stuff out of the pots on the warmer without moving them. The recipes tell you what stages can be refrigerated or warmed. If it doesn't say either, then it will disappear at the beginning of service. I will agree with you on the fridges... they suck and new ones aren't cheap at £300. It gets hectic, the difficulty ramps up, and it is an enjoyable time sync and a good little game. For such a small play space (youre in a kitchen) to make it enjoyable and engaging is something the devs deserve credit for.
