Cooking Companions is a cozy kitchen simulator where you can unlock new recipes and build beautiful character relationships. Very fun and insightful. My time played is far more than is showing on record. Dunno what's going on there. No, it is not cozy. I lied

Yes. Great story. Easy to 100%. Fun for the whole family :3 Did have many crashes, however, so fair warning.

To put my cards on the table early: I saw that the devs wanted to hit 1k reviews before the launch of the console ports and figured: "What the Hell." Anyways, the game's got some cool moments and extras. The sequel does an even better job! Give them a shot, especially when this gets the content upgrade!

Game play wise, this is a lot like Doki Doki Literature Club, you can tell just by looking at it. If you like that game then you'll like this one too. It doesn't take as long as DDLC to get into the horror and has multiple endings and a lot of unlockables. The horror is great as well with a lot of creppy images and moments and backstory.
