By having to play the match game every 2 minutes in order to do anything for the kitchen makes it very boring. There are no incentives or bonuses to collect along the way. Hope it gets better quickly or I’ll have to stop playing. ### 2/5 — Too needy with the Internet *2023-11-27* I absolutely love this game, but I’m giving it only two stars, because it requires the use of the Internet way too much, when I should be able to play it off-line. Something is wrong with the game in order for me to be able to play off-line without a problem. Until the problem is solved, I am not downloading this game onto my iPod. ### 3/5 — Quirky *2023-10-18* Out of all of these type games, this one takes too long and items don’t drag as easily. ### 4/5 — Very good *2023-07-31, version 1.6.0* I thought matching games were not my cup of tea but kitchen nightmares changed that ### 5/5 — Games *2023-07-23* I love this game alot it so addicting I will keep playing it forever and ever and ever give this game 5.0 and thank you ### 5/5 — This is fun *2023-07-15, version 1.6.0* I enjoy playing this even when watching the ads they give me ideas of others things as well boosting my gems ### 5/5 — Rate *2023-06-23, version 1.6.0* This is a pretty good game I like it a lot ### 4/5 — Definitely what I remember but *2023-05-04* It is definitely how I remember it but I definitely want to see Gordon Ramsay make a appearance and I would like for Gordon Ramsay to appear ### 2/5 — Well.. *2023-03-08, version 1.5.0* It’s ok I guess but could have room to improve. In my opinion it needs A lot of improvement. First off, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with Gordon Ramsay, except for the game name. Also it, like millions of other games has “ match 3” nonsense in it. Tired of that in nearly every game. For this reason I can only rate it 2 for now. ### 4/5 — Why isn’t episode 5 ready to finish? *2023-02-21* I have 22 tokens to use but it won’t let me get past the kitchen for tasks. Is there something not completed here or is there a glitch? Am i missing something? Can someone respond please or else I’m deleting this game if there’s no use in going further. I like it and want to keep going but you guys aren’t doing anything with it. ### 4/5 — Good game so far *2023-02-20, version 1.5.0* I’m enjoying this game at the moment, I only downloaded it today😃, I’m wondering what the coins are for as so far all I’ve used are the tokens to revamp the restaurants, maybe it will come later . ### 4/5 — Update *2022-10-05, version 1.5.0* Need an update plse! Cant move up anymore in levels!! ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2022-05-23, version 1.5.0* This is a very fun game I love it so far ### 5/5 — LOVE IT *2022-05-19, version 1.5.0* ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ### 2/5 — Review *2022-05-18* I like the game, but every time I watch a video for points or boosts, it crashes. I updated everything I could, but it still crashes. Most of the time I don’t get what I’m watching the video for. If it’s not fixed soon, I’ll find another game **Developer response:** Hello reking123, Thank you for your review.

SOOOOOO¿¿¿¿ *2023-06-24* ***Just redownloaded this game a year after I uninstalled it. Of course I have start completely over from level one. That in itself is no big deal because I like the game. What I’m curious about is if the developers EVER updated the game or not? Since I had to start over,I don’t know 🤷‍♀️ After waiting and waiting for an update so the game is playable again, I’m about to give up on ever seeing an update. If there was a zero stars option, I’d have done that. Since the game isn’t playable after level 517 and there’s no update in sight, just gonna delete the app and be done with it. ***********STILLLLLLL WAITING FOR AN UPDATE 😡************ I’m at level 517. There’s no longer any Daily Check-in rewards,no videos for bonus coins or boosters. There’s nothing else to do with the restaurant at that level either. ?????UPDATES COMING WHEN??????? You keep saying an update is coming but 6 months after my original review and there’s STILL no update. Beginning to think you ditched the game. **Developer response:** Hello Seriously, Thanks for your message, and thank you for your patience. Our team is working hard to implement new and fun features for the game, as well as new tasks, which takes some time to do. We are constantly trying to improve our games, and major updates such as this one take a while. Your frustration is understandable and we appreciate you taking the time to reach out to us. New exciting update coming soon, stay tuned! Thank you for playing Kitchen Nightmares! /KN Team ### 1/5 — Game is dead *2022-11-07, version 1.5.0* Only 502 levels and no updates in 7 months…. This game is dead, the devs don’t care. ### 1/5 — ¿¿NEW CONTENT?? *2022-10-08, version 1.5.0* After waiting and waiting for an update so the game is playable again, I’m about to give up on ever seeing an update.

I’ve been waiting to play this game for 10-15 minutes and I’ve been stuck on the loading screen the entire time the highest it’s ever loaded to is 29%. Every time I try to play the game it’s the same exact way. I would rate it higher if I was able to play the game I downloaded. **Developer response:** Hello Nicole_1118, Thank you for your review.

He has played himself in other mobile games so why not get him? ### 1/5 — Too difficult *2021-12-15, version 1.3.5* The levels are insanely difficult for no reason at all, other than to make you spend money. Tetris and Candy Crush aren’t this hard and matching shapes is their sole purpose. The puzzle part is what ruins this game. ### 1/5 — Can’t get past load screen *2021-12-13, version 1.3.5* I was really excited to play this game but unfortunately I can’t get past the loading screen. I just get stuck on the blue screen with the knife and it never loads. What a shame. ### 1/5 — Boring and goes a bit off topic *2021-12-10* Wouldn’t recommend, just stick to watching the tv show **Developer response:** Hello Badgameplayarelmusicintroment, Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you did not enjoy our game :( Please let us know what exactly you did not like about our app at support@qiiwi.com so we could improve it based on your feedback.
