### 2/5 — Deleting this game for good this time - I'VE HAD ENOUGH

*2023-07-13*

I put money into this game for gold they make it almost IMPOSSIBLE to earn any other way just for the game to suddenly reboot itself without me even uninstalling & reinstalling. I tried restoring my progress with Facebook but have been continuously getting the same error message. I loved this game. I obsessively played it every single day. I catered to its creators by giving in to its addictive qualities. I was even willing to get past the network errors that prevented me from completing group goals as well as the fact that there were never ads available for me to earn more gold or lower the wait time for recipes to be done. I will NOT however tolerate my progress being withheld from me, ESPECIALLY after making all of those in-app purchases. I hope the creators of this game get it together one day, because they clearly have all but abandoned it with no foreseeable updates or fixes to these absurd bugs.

### 4/5 — Great game but could better some things

*2023-05-18*

I’ve been playing this game for a bit now and I absolutely love it. However, there’s some stuff that could be better. The amount of gold you win from rewards should be raised. Eventually, it becomes seemingly impossible to get enough gold to make upgrades that are needed unless you spend money to get more. Another thing is the Quick Duel game play. It’s been a few days and when I try to do the Quick Duels, it just says I have no internet connection when I in fact have perfectly fine connection and it’s very disappointing because that’s my favorite part of the game. I messaged Support and was told to keep an eye on the game News section because they’re trying to fix that issue and updates will be on there, but it’s been days and 1- still no fix and 2- I cannot figure out how to see the game News section to keep track of whether or not the issue will be fixed soon or not. Maybe it’s me, but I just cannot figure out where to view that at. Overall, this is a great game, but please raise the amount of gold we can win so we can realistically make the upgrades we need!

### 2/5 — Fallen from glory

*2022-12-29, version 2.12.1*

I’ve played this game for most of the years since it’s release. I recommended it to lots of people over time. In the past 1-2 years, I don’t open the game that much because it has gotten exponentially harder to make any progress since they removed the feature where you can earn gold by watching videos. It’s not even like you could earn that many in a day, a handful here and there if you commit to maxing out the allotted videos you can watch in a day. Without that option, there are only the offers that you would have to sign up for, giving over your information or make purchases for stuff you don’t need. It’s no longer accessible to play the game. You can play for weeks on end before you can buy even one new food item, which doesn’t help you finish many more levels than you did before you bought it. I used to love this game. I wish I could still say I love it today. I cannot since I’m stuck in limbo with it.

### 2/5 — Constant bugs

*2022-12-01, version 2.12.1*

Another app game that doesn’t manage errors that have been around since the game started and errors that make gameplay obsolete while also making advancing a standstill process without paying huge amounts of money for digital property. They are nice in customer service but nothing is getting resolved and it’s my favorite game with lots of potential but if you cannot access goals or even receive rewards then the community and competition of this game is nonexistent making it worthless to play. I will probably refund my last purchase and delete this as it’s been a few years and before I started playing, these errors have been brought up long before I started playing. 

I was going to leave a long review of pros and cons but I knew if this game didn’t get any better then I’m officially done with app games anyway and everyone should switch to console and abandon any app charging money or having issues like this because you’ll get way more value from a console than an app and maybe even more support and progress.

### 2/5 — To much effort for to little reward.

*2022-08-17, version 2.12.1*

Just like the title say’s. You get to little in way of rewards or compensation. You have to repeatedly replay past levels over and over again just to get next to nothing. I get that sometimes you have to replay a level or to two in order for you to get a bit of a build up. Also it appears that it seems to be a bit of a cash grab. With unrealistic offers for a assistant that automatically does everything and upgrade the equipment. 75 gold but your lucky to get maybe 10 to 12 gold and then you have to use it upgrade stuff so you can unlock it just to not even come close to actually getting it. It’s more than frustrating it’s obvious what is happening. A lot of effort for to little rewards. A harsh little loop of greed and insanity.

### 3/5 — Network errors!

*2022-06-26, version 2.12.1*

I enjoy this game, but there are flaws with the app.  On the positive, it’s a fun game!  But the following issues are a daily problem.
1.  The social part of the game always has “network errors” and it says I need to check my network settings.  I have not been able to open this all week.  It’s not my iPad’s connection.  I cannot complete group goals or give/receive hearts. 
2.  The Duals section has connectivity problems as well, but about half as bad as the social area.  Still a daily annoyance.
3.  I was once able to watch ads for gold bars, but that is no longer available.  I assume they cannot get advertisers.  
I have tried everything I know including, checking my network, turning my iPad off,  and deleting the app and reinstalling all to no avail.  Customer service is not much help.

### 4/5 — Absolutely amazing

*2022-06-25, version 2.12.1*

I love this game so much. It’s one of my favorites and the only cooking game I’ll ever need. The only bad thing is that there’s usually a “network error” when you want to go to the social section. At first I thought it was my internet but soon realized it was not. I really hope you guys can solve this problem cause it’s very very annoying, I mean sometimes you can’t connect to that section for daaaays :( 
Other than that, I enjoy everything that was created for the game. Very clever and funny to have Gordon’s voice in the game, especially when you make mistakes or don’t succeed in an episode haha. I’ll come back and give it 5 stars if the network error problem is solved.

### 4/5 — Please please fix network problem

*2022-06-23, version 2.12.1*

This game is my absolute favorite. I used to play it quite a bit 4 years ago. Then something got broken and network error was introduced resulting in inability to complete group goals; came back to check on it 4 years later; the bug is still not fixed. Every other reviewer complains about it. Such a shame!!! Gorgeous graphics, wonderful game play, great design decisions, hours of fun play. A++ on all of this. Yet the network aspect of the game is just a complete flop. Indisputable F. So sad. Renders the game almost unplayable. Such an amazing game with a flaw that brings this game down from “All time favorite” to “week of play then delete and forget it”

### 1/5 — Used to be fun until they took away videos to earn gold

*2022-04-21, version 2.12.1*

As with every other game, this game turned out to be one where the creators just want people to pay more money. One of the best features was the ability to earn gold by watching ad videos which helped level up restaurants and speed up prep kitchen recipes. All of a sudden, and without warning they stopped the video feature. Their answer to earning gold is having to spend more money to complete offers and earn gold that way. The cost of most offers is ridiculous, and most of the items are not something I would ever purchase. While there are other ways to earn a few gold bars here and there, they take forever. There is also no longer an option to speed up recipes that help win levels, which means everything takes longer. I have purchased some level packs and gold because I was able to supplement what I earned in the game without spending a crazy amount. But, now I’m not going to play this game anymore and waste my time or money.

### 2/5 — Is it good? Yes. Is it your best? No.

*2022-02-25, version 2.12.1*

The game itself is actually really fun. It’s your typical diner dash type of game. I like that it’s more from the chef perspective rather than a waitress like Diner Dash is. Theres plenty of game content to access. I have two major issues with the game- firstly, the social parts of the game stop working almost every day. There’s a section for participating in group challenges that just won’t load. It’s certainly not a connectivity issue on the part of the user as the other features such as 1v1 challenges called Duels will work fine. This is a big problem because it’s one of the very few ways to earn the things you’ll need to progress besides a limited number of game progression or achievement awards. Secondly, the ads on this game are broken. About half of them will not have an “x” button anywhere even minutes after the ad playing. I’ve tried clicking everywhere. You eventually have to close the game entirely and reopen to get rid of it. Im not one to typically complain about ads especially for a free game but to have ads you can’t close out of is very frustrating and doesn’t reflect well. I thought perhaps I’m missing an update so that’s what brought me here to the apps store. No update pending and the last one was 2 weeks again as of today. 
I can’t imagine anyone spending money on in-game purchases for a game that acts up so much.
