So you’ll have to wait until that certain time period ends. Also competition pairing can be unfair. ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-03-13, version 2.0.6* I really love this game, I just wish there was more options for events! ### 5/5 — Best cooking mobile game *2025-01-31, version 2.0.6* This is the best cooking mobile game I have played. Fun to bet money as well. ### 5/5 — Definitely Love this Game *2025-01-19, version 2.0.6* Great game play love the challenges.

It makes for a real great escape from work & life’s busy cluster! I have been playing for over 6 months now and I love this game! Second review:update: 12-30-2024 I have now been playing this game for 3&1/2 years! Only game that stays on my phone with the test of time. No adds ever! Just fun! You earn points and play! You can spend and gain money, but I only if you want to & sometimes do. I mostly just play with my points. Back in the day when the reward stuff didn’t cost soo many point I got a thermal water bottle from them with my points & with their logo on the side! Still have it! Love it! Is super cool! Don’t expect gifts any more though. Way, way tooo many points to get just the littlest item! Buutttt absolutely still love the game! They have other games as well. I like their bingo one on occasion. When I really want to be distracted from the day and move fast. 👍 ### 5/5 — Games *2024-12-30, version 2.0.6* Fun ### 5/5 — Love Love Love *2024-12-28, version 2.0.6* Evening playing this game for years and its the best hands down ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-12-26, version 2.0.6* Bring back the other levels. ### 5/5 — A blast! *2024-12-20, version 2.0.6* This game is a rush. I love the different kitchens to play in! ### 5/5 — Woohoo *2024-12-13, version 2.0.6* I love this new game! ### 5/5 — Pandas Review *2024-12-07, version 2.0.6* Very addictive game. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Another Skillz scam *2025-08-29, version 2.0.6* Same pattern of Skillz offering an addictive game. The problem is, their developers don’t know how to write code and haven’t quite figured out that 20 consecutive matches against the SAME player is unethical. This industry needs to be regulated to keep companies honest. ### 1/5 — Rigged game *2025-08-24, version 2.0.6* This game is rigged why has one of the paid matches been pending for over a day?? You still looking for an opponent? I noticed on the paid games it takes longer to “find opponent” it seems like you’re trying to find someone who can beat my score ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-03-15, version 2.0.6* Their games has damn lots of glitches, will crash half way, unable to submit score etc. The customer support will find all kind of excuses to reject the refund request despite you submitted a screen record showing the issue ### 1/5 — honestly, I think you guys are buying your reviews *2024-02-26* Let's start with the fact that they asked if I wanted to merge both of my accounts so I did the game was going fine I swipe out like I normally do when I've had enough of playing for over an hour then I can't get into my account and it says that it's suspended. I'm like suspended .... for what I asked them to delete my old account that I had so I can add my phone number to my new one and I can just start over for the year and then they send me an email to my new account and then when I try to log in with that email it says the email is nonexistent and you know what honestly ... you guys have my information on my account and I would rather you release it before I sit there and have a lawyer get involved or I contact Apple either which way my information is going to be released to me today or you guys can give me my account back because I didn't do anything wrong ! your not just gonna suspended me and then lock my information in within an account it's illegal ! ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-02-16, version 2.0.4* This game is such a scam. It doesn’t matter how good you are, if they give your opponent extra food to prepare you lose. I could say so much more, but my Mom always said if you have nothing nice to say, Don’t say anything. ### 1/5 — ADD MORE Rotating Practice GAMES!!!! *2024-02-14, version 2.0.4* Put back earning tickets for practice games and lower the tickets needed to trade in for cash. I.E It was 1,250,000 tickets needed to get $100.00, now it’s 2 million tickets to get $100.00. Raise the amount of bonus cash with deposits,I.e was $250.00 bonus cash with a deposit of $500.00, now it’s ONLY $150.00 bonus cash with a deposit of $500.00. YOU PEOPLE HAVE TAKEN AWAY SO MUCH And HAVE NOT GIVEN Anything IN RETURN TO YOUR LOYAL Customers. ### 1/5 — This app is a SCAM. *2023-08-04, version 2.0.2* I registered two accounts on this app in error. Whilst playing on my 2nd account, I was paired up against my first account and lost to it. Clearly they have bots that use the names of existing accounts. Its all a scam. I posted proof of this to reddit if anyone is interested. Avoid this app like the plague. ### 1/5 — Unfair events *2023-06-01* After you play the events that have unlimited entries just play one time and that’s it. After you keep playing over and over the amount of entrees is less and customers is less giving you less chance to beat your previous high score. It feels like the app wants you to keep putting more money into the event before your can actually beat your high score. The app needs to be fair and give the same amount of customers and entrees for each unlimited entry. How can you ever beat your precious score when you had 25 customers with complex entrees then your next several times you at you only get 12 or 15 customers with just getting ice cream which results in less points?! You will never beat your high score bc it’s not the same!!!!! ### 1/5 — Rip off- Only play if you like to gamble *2023-01-26* Even after reading the reviews I still played and entered cash games. The reviews are CORRECT!! You will NOT win due to the inconsistent customer flow. One game you have constant flow of customers. Next game you are waiting for customers to show up and serve. You can’t win that way, especially in head to head cash games. Adding to that if you have an empty counter and a new customer walks in and stops at the front NO new customer walk in until you serve that one. That isn’t right!! Especially since games are timed and especially when playing with my hard earned money. Also the cost of items to purchase things is insane, especially given the inconsistent play. I would be more than happy to pay if I felt I was getting a fair shot. Nothing about this App is fair. ### 1/5 — Used to play it every day *2022-10-27, version 1.9.9* It seems the higher the level, they set you up with more expensive games with less of a win for first through third with events. Not only that, but it’s really not a skills game anymore with the events, you have to get lucky to get a game with enough customers and enough orders and a lot of the time you end up spending even more money then you could possibly win. It’s just ridiculous anymore. They have to be losing so much moneys because of this. Also taking away games and keeping the same old for so long makes it really boring. They can do better! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-09-03, version 2.0.6* I love the fact that you can win real money on this game!! ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-03-15, version 2.0.6* Fun game ### 5/5 — Love this game! *2026-02-20, version 2.0.6* I’ve been playing this game for a couple years now and I absolutely love it.
