Ich spiele am ersten Level noch, weil das nächste nicht Download wird. Es klickt man an, es gibt kein Upload. Sehr schade ### 4/5 — Not download new Restaurant *2024-02-15, version 1.3.7* It’s not load ### 4/5 — Update *2023-10-25* It's a really nice game but too bad that there are no updates anymore… ### 1/5 — No internet connection *2023-08-09* This game is awesome, but not able to open new restaurants as it tells me that I have no internet connection. Please fix this! ### 1/5 — Next location ? *2023-08-07* Next restaurant not down loading 😳 ### 3/5 — ??? Why is this game even still available? There’s been been no update in over a year! *2023-08-06, version 1.3.7* Can you please remove this game please?? My 8 yr old keeps downloading it thinking it’s up to date but it’s not. She just finished the 1st restaurant but can’t open the 2nd…??? Just contact Apple and Android and have it removed already ### 1/5 — Update *2023-06-26* I have spoken to other players and we all feel the same, we need you to add the next restaurant otherwise this review will be very hard for you! This is getting ridiculous, when can we get the new restaurant which you have been promising for months!!! ### 2/5 — Help *2023-05-12* How do I delete my account and start a new one? ### 2/5 — Could Be 5 Star *2023-03-07* This is a good game but it has major issues. Of course the ads are an issue, annoyingly after every round you have an ad BUT! When you have an ad to upgrade your restaurant the ad won’t play it’s not available. That’s real messed up, I call that a scam. You can pay to remove ads but no way I’m giving these people my money. Cooking Diary is far superior to this game, no ads and a lot of content. I can only give this 2 stars because of the greedy devs but it does have potential to be 5 star yet they sabotaged their own game. ### 3/5 — NO UPDATE *2023-01-04* Why bother developing this game when you don't update and make new restaurants ### 3/5 — Spanish restaurant *2022-12-13* When are you going to release this game. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bug *2025-12-06* Won’t download the breakfast restaurant ### 1/5 — Game won’t download new restaurants *2025-04-15* Love the game But you can only play the first restaurant ### 1/5 — New restaurant levels? *2025-04-11* Have started playing and can’t even get to new restaurants as won’t down load wouldn’t even give it one star but had too before you set out the games you at least put a few levels in can’t move forward on this developers need to get a grip and create the 2nd restaurant ### 1/5 — New restaurant will not download *2024-12-17* I have been trying to download the new restaurant but it will not allow me to do so I’ve only been able to play the first restaurant and there is no help button or email to send my complaint not to mention nothing is explained in English ### 1/5 — Not fun *2024-10-22* I’ve completed the first restaurant now it won’t download any other restaurant ### 1/5 — Frozen Game *2024-03-08, version 1.3.7* Won’t open the 2nd cafe and there’s no one to reach out to for help. ### 1/5 — Can’t Move on to the Next Restaurant *2023-12-02* I was enjoying the game & passed level 30 in the Cafe so I should have been able to go to the next restaurant. When I tried, it wouldn’t download, it just stays at “0% Loading”, so I can’t move on. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — 次に進めない *2023-10-13* せっかく面白いのに2個目の店、breakfast。DL出来ない。ダイヤ買おうと思ってもネットに繋げとか出るし、広告も見ることが出来ないです。直すのを待ってるけど？ ここはやる気ないのかヽ(`Д´)ﾉ ### 1/5 — No internet connection *2023-08-19* This game is awesome, but not able to open new restaurants as it tells me that I have no internet connection. Please fix this! ### 1/5 — No internet connection *2023-08-15* This game is awesome, but not able to open new restaurants as it tells me that I have no internet connection. Please fix this! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 何故ゲームが改善されないのか？ *2025-03-10* いつになったら次のステージにインストール出来ないのにハンドマークで誘導する。インストール出来ないならマークを出さなで欲しい、本当にイライラする😠いつになったらこのゲームが次にいけるの改善する気無いのですかね、せっかく他には無い楽しいゲームなのに、運営さんやる気無いのですか？ ### 5/5 — cooking confidential *2025-01-22* i love this game so much ### 5/5 — My game *2024-09-19* I love playing this game. I could play all day long! ### 5/5 — Good *2023-04-26, version 1.3.7* Good game and so fun ### 5/5 — EXCELLENT *2022-11-01* This is the only 5 star game out there. You can win without spending money, but the app is definitely worth every penny you do decide to spend. It’s perfectly balanced between skill and challenge. It’s engaging and fun to play, the game is intuitive and easy to learn. VERY addicting! ### 5/5 — Cooking confidential *2022-10-21* It would be nice if you responded as to when we can expect more levels etc. as really like the game…. ### 5/5 — Fabulous game love it 😍 *2022-06-30* This is a great game not money grabbing like some of the games, challenging and fun , more please 🙏 ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-06-16, version 1.3.7* I love this game ### 5/5 — Brill *2022-05-29* Love this game only just started it and I’m hooked ### 5/5 — Nice *2022-05-17* Love it --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
