### 1/5 — Game not too responsive to touch

*2021-09-23, version 1.3*

It used to be really easy just tapping anything and the game would respond immediately. I don’t know what happened but now the game either doesn’t respond to tapping at all sometimes or just lags. I could tap the hot dog sausage many times and it would bring all 3 slowly at a time. Tap the hamburger bun once and doesn’t respond at all. I don’t know what the hèll did you do. Just makes the game very hard to play. Deleted.

### 1/5 — I don’t understand all the positive reviews

*2020-11-03, version 1.3*

This game is laggy as hell and not very responsive. There are a million better cooking games out there. And I’m on an iPhone 11 so not like I’m running some old crappy phone. And I tried closing every single program to see if the lag would improve but it doesn’t.

### 1/5 — Disturbing

*2020-02-15, version 1.3*

For a game this easy you shouldn’t have to buy the rest of the game.  There are plenty out there with more fun that we can play for free.

### 1/5 — CANNOT PLAY WITHOUT WIFI

*2019-10-26, version 1.3*

The game without a doubt deserves 5 stars, but I reside where there is a lot of connectivity issues and so when I would like to play the game I’m unable to.   Can you PLEASE make a version with a one time purchase price that only needs wifi for the initial download, but not to play.  

Also, Happy Chef HD needs to be updated because I can’t restore my purchase ios 12.4.1.    It’s not fair to persons who paid to upgrade on that game.

A MILLION thanks if that could be done.

### 1/5 — DONT BUY THIS APP

*2019-08-06, version 1.3*

I first downloaded it thinking “ oh I love cooking so I should download this!” But when I opened it the screen wasn’t full screen it was really tiny. I looked everywhere on the app to see if I could find out how to put it on full screen. I couldn’t find it! So I tried to use it with the tiny screen, but when i tapped on something it wouldn’t do anything. Also there is not enough food options. If you don’t believe me you can get it and see for yourself. I can’t make you do anything, but i strongly advice… DO NOT GET THIS APP! Thanks!🌻

*2018-12-16, version 1.3*

votre jeux est moien😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😶😶😶😶😶😶

### 1/5 — Weird!

*2018-06-13*

I have never played a cooking game like this game that’s so intent on wanting you to spend money so forcefully. This game will let you play for so long then won’t let you go any further without purchasing the full version as if though it’s forcing you to spend money to progress any further. It’s a fun game but that’s a total turnoff for me. I might’ve eventually purchased the full version but after it became so forcefully thrown on me I changed my mind. Controls is a headache it takes way to much time tapping sometime multiple times on everything to get a response to cook the food then you gotta drag ingredients exactly right on the food then drag it exactly right to the customer. I think it’s easier tapping everything than it is tapping and dragging. Upgrades don’t seem to help much either.

### 1/5 — Don't bother unless you want to pay

*2016-03-06, version 1.2*

You play 30 episodes and then you have to purchase to play more.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2013-07-06, version 1.1*

Another annoying game you enjoy but cut short as you have to pay

### 2/5 — Luv

*2024-01-02, version 1.3*

I really enjoy this game , but it is not responding to tap that good , when you press it , it will go to the menu and then back to the game it is very difficult to play because of this problem ! I use to have the whole game on here for free , now u have to pay.
