### 3/5 — Cooing Frenzy 2021

*2022-05-05, version 3.0.0*

Sadly I have to give this game only three stars. I made it to the seafood restaurant and I always have to delete the whole app and start from the first restaurant because after a certain level in the seafood restaurant it won’t pass you to new levels and say to upgrade your stuff but the coins quit adding up the more times you try getting your key and hammer ticket for that level! If this could get fixed then I will consider keeping the app after the next time I delete it. Thank you.

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2020-10-19, version 2.0.4*

So far it’s a lot of fun. It’s quick and you can upgrade quicker than other games. The graphics are nice and I really like it. But I know that it will eventually get so hard you can’t move forward until you spend money. At this point I usually delete and change games. I know they need to make money off these games and I don’t mind watching the commercials, I just don’t have the money to spend.

### 4/5 — Early days

*2020-08-30*

Just started & it appears ok, will update later

### 4/5 — Connect error

*2020-04-15*

I am not able to download the 2nd restaurant it says connect error

### 3/5 — Good but...

*2020-03-24*

I enjoyed playing this game a lot. However I’ve completed all levels & for a week already it will not let me get to restaurant 150. It says coming soon for a while already. Come on man!!

### 3/5 — Más Corto

*2020-01-17, version 1.3.2*

Hola. Un buenísimo juego, pero debe ser al menos 20 en lugar de 30.  Se hace muy largo y no hay muchas variaciones, haciéndose un poco cansino. 

Gracias

### 4/5 — Great game

*2019-12-28*

Very addictive game but have found at times very easy

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2019-08-20*

Great cooking game, just can’t figure out why I can’t claim my mystery gifts from customers. It just loads then goes away. Otherwise a great game, the chef keeps up with me very well.

### 3/5 — Great Game!

*2019-08-10*

I’ve only been playing the game. For three days now. That’s why I’ve only given it 3 stars. But so far I’m loving the game.

### 5/5 — Hi

*2019-05-23*

I love this game so much it has different kinds of food and are lots of customers that order the food I love this app and game I’ll recommend this app and game to my family and friends

### 2/5 — Horrible update

*2019-03-08*

I was playing cooking idol and really enjoying it and was already on the second restaurant when I was forced to update the app! Silly me thought it would be like any other app and would just fix and update things but would still be the same game!!! Nope! 
When I started the updated version which had a totally different name by the way, I was back to square one!!!
I also think this version is harder to play and seems like a step down to me! You have to click the person and the counter to actually be able to serve them! This makes it much harder. Before you just clicked the person who was already at the counter! Also the game before seemed smoother! Guess I will have to find another game and it’s a shame because I really liked the original!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2019-03-02*

Entertaining but there are bugs that need to fix and improve.

### 1/5 — Glitch

*2020-04-20, version 2.0.1*

There’s a glitch. Level 39 star #2. As soon as I go in to play the level and select a burger or dog, the system sends the food immediately to burn. I tried using the non-burn booster but it didn’t work. I can’t get by this level.

### 1/5 — Full of bugs

Bad bad bad mistakes

### 1/5 — Too many bugs

*2020-04-12, version 2.0.1*

I’m having fun but controls are slow to respond causing food to burn and lose customers

Would
Be nice if could upgrade items for restaurant as well as food

Overall good job

Needs more levels

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2018-06-05*

There are glitches and eventually it shuts you out of free mode. It’s fun otherwise

### 1/5 — Levels 4

*2018-03-04*

Got as far as playing to level 4 seemed like an alright game until in the map it has a green arrow above level 1 with pop up message about gold coins and when you try to do anything on the screen nothing happens just a warning pop up message saying I don’t have enough gold coins and screen completely freezes

### 2/5 — App

*2020-06-15, version 2.0.1*

The app keeps crashing.

### 2/5 — Keeps freezing

### 5/5 — Fun Game - needs more frequent updates

*2020-12-25*

I love this game. The levels are fun and sometimes frustrating (if you try not to use boosts).  Which is a good thing. I just want to know when more restaurants coming. If I lose momentum much longer I’m going to lose sight of the game

### 5/5 — Lots of fun

*2020-10-06*

I really enjoy playing this game. Fast paced and moves quickly. I especially like how the restaurants change sooner than other games. Keeps everything fresh and fun.
