In the cooking simulator game Overcooked 2, teams of up to four players cook orders in absurd restaurants.
Players chop and cook ingredients, combine them on plates and serve dishes via a conveyor belt.
Between co-ordinating short orders and bumping into each other’s characters, the game lends towards overwhelm. The sequel builds atop the original game, which was released in 2016, with new interactive levels, restaurant themes, chef costumes and recipes.
Some levels have moving floors and other obstacles complicating the cooking process, including portals, moving walkways and fires.
Other levels transition between settings and recipes, such as one that begins with preparing salads in a hot air balloon and ends crash-landed in a sushi kitchen. The sequel introduces ingredient tossing where players can throw items to another chef or pot from far away, and online multiplayer, in which teams can lekker connect.
