Levels in Overcooked 2 are now far, far more dynamic. That's when the game's developers at Ghost Town Games started tearing the sequel's mechanics apart-literally. Anyone who has worn out the first game knows that different dishes don't necessarily transform the gameplay (although later-game hints of elaborate pastries got my chef-gameplay mouth watering). This is an early-game hint that later, more difficult levels will force players to be mindful of when to cook or not cook certain ingredients when taking orders.Īfter a few familiar cooking-challenge levels, I began to wonder whether this was just a remix of the original Overcooked, only with new sushi and pasta dishes.
Sushi is now a hot-ticket item, and Overcooked 2's variety of sushi dishes includes raw (fish, seaweed) and cooked (rice) elements. The gameplay is instantly familiar in spite of the opening sequences changing up required recipes. (And the game's challenges are still designed so that solo players must swap between multiple chefs, though this kind of solo play is still easier to account for this awkward juggle.) The challenge, again, comes from bizarre kitchen layouts that force 2-4 chefs to divide tasks like fetching ingredients, chopping, heating, plating, and serving. You do this by playing through a series of kitchen-related challenges, where you must fulfill diners' orders by preparing dishes that they order. Just like the original game, Overcooked 2 includes a semblance of a plot in which an anxious king asks you to feed a terrifying, hungry monster scourge (in this case, zombie bread known as the, ugh, "unbread") and save a kingdom.
