I can’t make any purchases from my region of the world so I can’t take advantage of cheap coin deals to help upgrade my restaurants, which are impossible to complete without upgrades. B. The food and layout is far too small. ### 2/5 — Cooking Venture *2019-02-12* This one is a bit disappointing, very clunky visuals and the constant ad interruptions are incredibly frustrating, there are better cooking games out there ### 2/5 — Too many adds *2019-02-06, version 1.0* This game has a lot of potential, but there is an add EVERY time anything happens in the game, and they aren’t short adds (3-4 seconds) they are at least 30 seconds a piece. It’s more like an add then a game. If the developers want to make money they need to realize it is the players that buy the things that the advertisers want. YOU NEED PLAYERS to thrive!! ### 2/5 — Could be good *2019-02-05, version 1.0* Good game but way too many ads. My only real complaint is that the thought bubble for filling is way too small. I can’t tell if it’s a plain pretzel, a peanut butter (?) one, or one with sprinkles. I would like to play this game but make it bigger and calm down the adds. ### 1/5 — Adverts are OTT... *2019-02-04* ...I’ve opened the game and before I got passed the privacy page I got advert one, then it loaded and I got advert two. I played the first level and I got advert three. I altogether had the game open for less than two minutes and all I got was adverts in my face. You can stick your game. Already deleted it due to the disgusting amount of adverts. Greedy developers should be ashamed of yourselves. ### 2/5 — Too many! *2019-02-04, version 1.0* I was waiting for a this game for a while. Pros, good graphics,food cooks faster, just a fun game all around. Cons, to many ads before you start 2 ads, after and before level ads too many and it detours people from playing it. Deleting now may come back to it later to see if ads where taken care of. I know it’s free and they have to pay for it but seriously way to many ads ### 1/5 — Ads *2019-02-04, version 1.0* way to many ads good game every 5 seconds it’s a ad very annoying will be uninstalling ### 2/5 — The ads are gonna drive me nuts *2019-02-04, version 1.0* Ok I do respect that ads are important but to have just installed the game, and watch two 30 second ads before allowing me to play level one, then a 30 second ad after level one, and another 30 second ad before playing level 2......no. This takes away the fun of these games. I hope that there is a fix for fewer ads and possibly the option to end the ad in 5 seconds if we don’t want to watch the entire ad. Please make this change soon. ### 3/5 — Way too many ads!!! *2019-02-04, version 1.0* So far a good game but the ads are obnoxious. There are ads literally after every level, before every level, between every level. I probably won’t continue to play if this continues ### 3/5 — Pretty cool game *2019-02-04, version 1.0* I really like this game, but there are way too many ads. That’s the only reason I gave 3 stars. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — What *2023-12-01, version 1.2.1* Can’t buy gems or coins ### 1/5 — Trash!!! *2019-10-13, version 1.1.6* This game doesn’t even open . ### 1/5 — BLINK AND THERES A AD .....30 SECOND LONG ADS EVERY SECOND....DELETED!!! *2019-04-29, version 1.0* Don’t even download ad on top of ad ### 1/5 — RIDICULOUS ADS *2019-02-20, version 1.0* WASTE OF TIME. ADS EVERY 3 SECONDS. YOU CAN PAY TO REMOVE THE ADS BUT ITS OTHER FREE GAMES WITH WAY LESS ADS!!!!! ### 1/5 — Ads *2019-02-18, version 1.0* Too many ads ### 1/5 — ADS GALORE; DONT WASTE YOUR TIME *2019-02-12, version 1.0* Okay, whoa. PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE: if you go to the App Store and type in “Cooking games” there are like 5 other games with almost exact playability, and RARE ADS. Don’t waste your time or money on this app. Someone decided to take this game and make it IMPOSSIBLE to play it without paying for the ad removal ($3). So the “free to play” thing is really BS. Usually in games, the ads are a minor nuisance, but this game has its ad reel on steroids. Watch an ad before the level starts, then watch an ad at the end of the level when you get your score, then press “next” and watch yet ANOTHER ad before you get back to the main screen... and then another ad at the start of the following level... so on and so forth. I mean, really? Didn’t even play through the 3rd level before I deleted the app altogether. Such a waste of time. And if you have kids? Be prepared to have the level of whining in your household increase if THEY’RE the ones trying to play. ### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS *2019-02-11, version 1.0* There are way too many ads. Everytime you click on anything you have to watch a 30 second video. Game can’t even be fun because you have to keep watching them back to back.... ### 1/5 — You should call this the cooking with ad’s game !!! *2019-02-08, version 1.0* So I install the game and before I can even open the game I have to watch 3 ad’s ... I guess I couldn’t tell you what the game is like because of the ad’s... Don’t waste your time installing this game !!!! ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time downloading *2019-02-05, version 1.0* I was looking forward to this game...until immediately after I downloaded an ad...played one level then 2 more ads?!? This is ridiculous ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2019-02-05, version 1.0* WAY too many. Every 2 mins. Uninstalling to move on and find one that I love. It’s too bad, I wanted to like it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2019-09-21, version 1.0* I’m sure others will say the same I like the game ,but way to many ads. ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2019-02-07, version 1.0* I love the game but there’s too many ads and they can make the game not so fun when you have to keep stopping in between the ads to continue the game that would make the game very boring if you have to keep stopping to playing stop in and playing So I hope you fix it real soon so I can continue to play ### 5/5 — Too many adds. *2019-02-06, version 1.0* I like it a lot but, too many adds ### 5/5 — Cooking venture *2019-02-04, version 1.0* Is so much fun 😀 ### 5/5 — Great Game *2019-02-04, version 1.0* Great Game it is one of the best time management games ### 4/5 — Way too many adds!!!!! *2019-08-28, version 1.0* Fun game, but WAAAAYYYY too many adds! ### 3/5 — Teddy *2019-11-20, version 1.1.6* i am having issues with this game pleas fix it as of right now i do not like it because i can not get any one to fix it but other then that i love playing this game and i love it but i do not love this game right now because i can not get you guys to fix it is not my device it is the app my friends that play this game are even saying it is not working if you guys will not fix it i will give it a bad review and say to people not a good game idea but if you do i will say this game is great try it and five stars ### 3/5 — Fun but ridiculous ads! *2019-02-05, version 1.0* The game itself is fun but there are way too many adds. Ruins the fun and not sure how long I can keep playing. ### 3/5 — Ads *2019-02-04, version 1.0* Wayyyy too many ads to ignore. And $5.99 to get rid of them? No thanks. It seemed good though ### 3/5 — annoying. *2019-02-04, version 1.0* game is fun. but WAY to many ads. ad after a level, ad when you go back to the main levels, ad before you play a level. it’s extremely annoying. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
