Video Game Reviews of Cooking Mama: Cook Off

Customer Review: Expected more
Summary: 2 Stars

I was pretty excited about getting the game since I love cooking and generally enjoy cutesy games.

However, I was very disappointed by the game play for two main things:
1) I am not a prolific gamer. However, I have some gaming experience and some wit. So I was very surprised when I found it hard to play the game. There are no written instructions, just one graphical picture indicating what you are supposed to do. When you do it wrong, you don't have any idea why it didn't work, only that it didn't work. 'Mama' doesn't help you, only tells you 'No, no, no'.
2) When you lose a challenge, this annoying 'Mama' comes up with an angry face telling you that you failed. You restart the game and she says 'Don't worry mama will help you' in what can only be said to be very hard to understand, thickly accented, english. I found her irritating beyond belief.

I think the game could have been so much better if they got rid of Mama altogether and also included better instructions like in Raving Rabbits or Mario Party.

I would not recommend buying this game.

Description of Cooking Mama: Cook Off

Making special use of the Wii Remote, Cooking Mama: Cook Off is an entertaining blend of mashing, slicing, chopping and stirring as players create more than 300 real-world recipes from 10 different nations. New realistic graphics and real-time cooking effects lend authenticity to player creations and help budding chefs determine when food is overcooked. Best of all, Cooking Mama: Cook Off offers 2-player kitchen competitions to determine who can cook the best meal the fastest

After her initial DS debut, Mama is whipping up some kitchen competition by pitting chef against chef in Cooking Mama Cook Off - a unique 2 player family game designed specifically for the Wii home video console. Step-by-step, recipe-by-recipe, help Mama cook international dishes from 10 different nations and watch as the realistic foods actually change in appearance based on your actions!

FEATURES
  • The Wii Remote is your ultimate cooking utensil, putting you in total control of the cooking action as you chop, grate, slice, stir, roll and much more! Hold and point it in many different ways depending on the task (i.e. upright to mash potatoes, lengthwise to fry in a pan, etc.) to get the real sensation of cooking in a kitchen!
  • All-new Cooking Challenge Mode lets you and a friend go head-to-head in the ultimate multiplayer cook off to determine who can cook the fastest with the fewest mistakes.
  • Create 55 real world dishes from 10 different nations: Japan, America, France, India, Mexico, England, China, Spain, Germany and Italy. You can even make desserts like cream puffs and pudding too! From hot dogs to pan fried crab to bouillabaisse, Cook Off challenges you to make it all!
  • Realistic graphics with 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.).
  • Keep your kitchen fancy and fresh by earning items that bring your kitchen to life (i.e. seasonings, small utensils, etc.).
  • Earn bronze, silver, and gold medals from Mama based on the quality of your cooking.
  • Practice mode allows you to fine tune your cooking skills without being judged. Recipes progress from simple to complex, from small to large dishes, so do your best to meet Mama's expectations as you unlock new dishes.
