SOFA SO GOOD: COUCH PLAYERS

OVERCOOKED 2

Too many cooks are never enough in this party game

This frantic, silly kitchen sim tasks you and your team with churning out meals to match customers’ orders. Levels start simple, but soon grow complicated, with more ingredients to prep and fewer stoves to cook on. Your characters might look cute, but you’ll need the efficiency of a real kitchen to succeed, and ideally one player will bark out orders as the others say ‘Yes chef!’, falling in line.

Inevitably the whole operation will fall spectacularly, hilariously apart. Debating where it all went wrong is the main course. Working out how to do better next time, and acing a level with a perfect score, is the dessert.
