### 3/5 — It’s kinda boring

*2023-11-17*

It kept me entertained in algebra for around ten minutes and after that I got bored there’s not very many choices and it only lets you cut stuff a certain amount of times which is boring I wish there were more food options and cooking options and I would also like to blend different things at the same time instead of only one item but that’s really all I have noticed but for bugs with the monsters if they don’t like the food it will fall through the table which is awfully annoying bc I spent all that time cooking a masterpiece and they throw it on the floor 😠

### 3/5 — Ok but wait

*2023-04-24*

Ok overall but very glitchy and a bit annoying…. If you have a food the monster doesn’t like it will spit it’s tongue out and the food will fall through the plate and table if you try to feed it. (Brown’s tomato and Blue’s is broccoli) super annoying.. even if you cook it (from my experience) it will not eat the food it dislikes. It’s incredibly amusing when, if you sprinkle in insane amount of pepper on the monster’s face, it will start glitching. It’s free, and it’s the best we’ll get around here, but I’d mosey on over to another Toca boca feeding game and play that (example: Toca boca kitchen 2). That’s my review, sincerely, 
your fav 🍞Loaf of bread 🍞 🤣🤣

### 3/5 — Eh

*2023-01-04, version 1.0.6*

Well first, I really wish that the original Toca Boca kitchen was free because this one is no fun not just because it’s different but what’s the point? You could make the first one free and then everyone’s happy. Overall still think you could at least update the game with more than 2 monsters and a little bit less dirty of a kitchen, that’s all I have got to say but not to be a total hater you did well for a free game that is the same as a priced game.

### 2/5 — Bad/glitchy (my option)

*2022-11-03, version 1.0.6*

Okay so I used to have the other game toca boca kitchen that cost money and it was was different from the one here because this one is so glitchy sometimes after I cook the food it starts to fly. Like the broccoli I cooked it and it stuck to the pan and started to fly. So yeah, but let’s get to the bad stuff, the bad stuff about this whole game is like how it’s made. It only has a little bit of food and the monsters are like so picky they don’t want to eat their food and the clearly like nothing but the ham and the other green thing. But other than that the game is like I just don’t know I could write this all day, I could write a whole paragraph why this game needs fixing but I’m not going to do that but look I know there’s a lot of words just stay here I still have to talk, but anyways like I said it’s glitchy and the monsters barely like their food. I’m so picky in real life but like they are pickier than me , like I’m not that picky but like dang they are so picky. Like who doesn’t like broccoli 🥦 it’s good , but if you do not like Broccoli I’m not mad it’s just like dang not even eating the broccoli. Like eat something

### 5/5 — Hey hey stop with the hates guys!

*2022-10-26, version 1.0.6*

Hello I think toca boca is okay actually you should play toca life of you want updates it free. Some are not so be respectful what you have!! It’s okay actually to hate or not you guys should stop hating! It’s not good or the dear creators fault they made it so you can have fun any kind of way! Some people are like “oh we need updates” WE?! No you should say ‘I want updates’. Anyways stay positive, and don’t be rude , and be grateful what you have.😊<3

### 5/5 — Highly recommended but here is a suggestion and a few bugs

*2022-08-14, version 1.0.6*

To Toca Boca AB: This game is highly recommended for all ages, but here is a suggestion and a few bugs. Suggestion: Add more foods like ice cream and broccoli, and add more seasonings like lemon juice and soy sauce. Bug 1. Every time you put some pepper on a food and you wait to give it to a monster its/their/ mouth gets all shaky. Bug 2. When you put salt or pepper in midair it just freezes like that and you can’t use it anymore. Hope you have a good day! Sincerely, Cupcake.

### 4/5 — Some Problems..

*2022-05-03, version 1.0.6*

So the first bug is when you put a food and put a lot of salt (or pepper) the monster gets their mouth shaky and that’s kinda funny, Second, there is this bug when you fry the steak and then you mix it and also you boil it and go back to the mixer without mixing it, and now the steak isn’t boiled, what a bug. Third when you cut the little green thing on the carrot it just turns to another shape. Fourth is the head. When the monster’s head shakes a bit, and then you tap it. The head just disappears and it’s kinda weird, Fifth. When you put food. The food randomly falls down and I think the limit is 5. Sixth, so when the brown monster doesn’t like the BROCCOLI and the blue monster likes the BROCCOLI when you try to feed it it just falls down. Seventh, is when you try to feed the lemon to them they wanna put it in a blender and that’s kinda weird. Dev, I hope you fix these problems.

### 2/5 — This is boring

*2022-03-22, version 1.0.6*

There is no need to make all your “kid games” money the second type of this is 4$ for what?! To feed actual humans they aren’t even human ?!?!?! they are ugly just as these are I rather your games be not 4$ and more people would actually play them. I like Toca world but everything is expensive there. daily gift is broken ,they nose is never perfect,to little furniture in the house packs,random background noises,and way more . Don’t waste your money on these games

### 5/5 — They need to update

*2022-01-14, version 1.0.6*

They have to update the game because it says it was updated “3 years ago” AND THATS A LONG TIME AGO! And there are probably a lot of bugs also I think they did not upgrade the game because it’s old but it’s a good app for kids but the bad part they they did not remove is that they spit at you and it’s not good for kids to spit on something they don’t like, I think they might update the game and make it better for the kids to play and sometimes it KICKED ME OUT THE GAME witch is really annoying but I  think it’s not good or bad for kids to play, also don’t forget to where you masks and wash your hands😃

### 3/5 — Gets boring afterwards

*2021-12-25, version 1.0.6*

It’s a fun game, but it’s not fun to use the same things over and over and to just have 2 people to cook for. Please make it so that there’s a trash can on the side so I can throw out food because sometimes they don’t like it and they just don’t eat it and then I can’t get rid of it. Also, can you please make it so that the blender actually blends the food into liquid so they can drink too? And if you can, please add more characters 😅 overall, this app is amazing, just need some shaping.
