Is there something I’m missing? ### 2/5 — Too many games... *2025-07-01, version 2.0.3* There's hardly any cooking. ### 2/5 — Not what I thought *2025-06-29, version 1.5.2* You barley do any cooking. You just play a “bubble pop” game the whole time basically. It’s annoying like I get play one bubble pop then one cooking but you have to play 5 bubble pop rounds just to do a quarter of cooking. Plus watch ads ### 4/5 — Good but *2025-05-21, version 1.5.2* To many ads!!!!! Otherwise, fun game. ### 3/5 — Lento *2025-05-04, version 1.5.2* Creo que han estropeado el juego con tanto puzzle, me gustaría que fuese un juego más de cocinar que de puzzles ### 1/5 — Not what I expected *2025-04-24, version 1.5.2* No cooking fr ### 1/5 — Takes way too long *2025-03-19, version 1.5.0* Takes way to long to actually “cook” in the game. You have to do A MILLION levels of “candy crush” to earn points to be able to cook part of a meal. ### 1/5 — Não funciona *2025-03-15* O jogo não carrega, fica dando erro ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2025-03-15, version 1.5.0* Worked last night… now it won’t connect to the server when I try to open… fix it please ### 3/5 — Non funziona *2025-03-14, version 1.5.0* Il gioco mi piace ma da stamattina non si apre l’app e il gioco non si avvia. Mi suggerisce di controllare la connessione Internet o di contattare il supporto clienti senza indicare altri problemi o soluzioni. Spero possiate risolvere. ### 1/5 — Master Chef *2025-03-14, version 1.5.0* I like the game except the sound to the game keeps disappearing. This game isn’t allowing me to play. ### 2/5 — FIX THE GLICHE *2025-03-14, version 1.5.0* You can’t earn ad $ if the game does not work ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Old stud game was better *2026-08-22, version 2.0.5* The old game was better. It was more fun. You had actual other competitors profiles on a screen and there was more drama with the in game characters and it was more like the TV show now it just isn’t fun anymore. You’ve updated it and it is nothing like the game show on TV, which is a real disappointment and I don’t like the game anymore because of this that’s why I’m only giving it one star if I could give it half a star or even a quarter of a star I would because that’s how bad it is at the moment ### 1/5 — No cooking *2026-01-23, version 2.0.5* You never get to cook just a fake candy crush ### 1/5 — WHY CHANGE THE DESIGN OF THE ORIGINAL? *2025-10-03, version 2.0.5* I DON’T LIKE THE CHANGES YOU MADE TO THE GAME THE ORIGINAL WAS OKAY BUT THE NEW DESIGN I DON’T LIKE AND FOR THAT I DELETE THE GAME WHERE IT IS OUT OF SIGHT AND OUT OF MIND!👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒🫷🫷🫷🫷🫷🫷🫷🫷🫷🫷 ### 1/5 — Bring back the older version *2025-07-30, version 2.0.3* It’s worse now because of the new version. Please bring back the older version because it had way more cooking than now. ### 1/5 — Whole different game *2025-07-07, version 2.0.3* The new update completely changed the game. It’s just like every other puzzle match game now. It’s no longer unique. No more cooking. Epic fail. ### 1/5 — Mise à jour pourrie *2025-07-01* Non mais vous rigolez ou quoi ? C’est quoi cette mise à jour pourrie que vous venez de faire !! C’était un jeu avec un haut potentiel et maintenant c’est juste un jeu de plus comme les autres avec des petites caisses à exploser non mais vous vous payez notre tête royalement c’est hallucinant !!! ### 1/5 — New Update *2025-06-29, version 2.0.1* This new update is horrible. There is no more cooking in the game. You just are matching. The whole idea of the game is different and it’s no longer fun. I downloaded this game for the cooking aspect. ### 1/5 — Where did the old game go *2025-06-29, version 2.0.1* What happen to the old game ?? ### 1/5 — Less ads *2025-06-06, version 1.5.2* The game is fun, but there are way too many ads. ### 1/5 — Ads for days *2025-05-10, version 1.5.2* Non stop ads, then force pop up to pay to remove ads without a way to exit. Won’t play a corrupt game ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Game time *2025-09-07, version 2.0.5* I absolutely love this game ### 5/5 — Masterchef: Cook & Match *2025-06-22* Dieses spiel ist so genial, und macht so ein Spaß. ### 5/5 — Very addictive *2025-06-01, version 1.5.2* Highly entertaining and recommended ### 5/5 — Masterchef *2025-04-26, version 1.5.2* Me encantaaa ### 5/5 — Now 17 *2025-04-25, version 1.5.2* Great gane to play ### 5/5 — MasterChef *2025-03-24, version 1.5.2* Good game good story ### 5/5 — MasterChef *2025-02-15, version 1.5.0* Good game good story ### 5/5 — Ottimo gioco *2024-12-25, version 1.5.0* Questo gioco è ottimo ### 5/5 — Control *2024-09-30, version 1.4.3* Please add backbone controllers ### 5/5 — Master chef *2024-09-30, version 1.4.3* This game is so fun --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
