Cooking Mama Nintendo DS

Cooking Mama goes beyond fantasy and gathers inspiration from reallife situations. Gourmet gamers utilize the stylus as an allinone cooking utensil to prepare over 76 dishes ranging from pepperoni pizza to cabbage meat rolls. Players begin with 15 default recipes and must unlock the other 61 by cooking a decent meal. Recipes can be combined to create more difficult concoctions that will increase a player's overall performance grade. In over 200 minigames, Cooking Mamas prepare the food by slicing, chopping, mixing, peeling, grating, or mashing ingredients, and then cooking items to pretend perfection. Culinary companions may share recipes through a local wireless connection. ~ Gracie Leach, All Game Guide
