Hello everyone!
I just thought that I would purge myself of the truth before I have a surprise intervention happen to me. I am addicted to the DS version of the Cooking Mama game!
I don't really understand how it happened. I recently bought myself a DS and I'm really happy with the system. The first DS game I bought was Cooking Mama. It looked like fun and I had heard some wonderful things about it. So there I was with my new DS and new Cooking Mama. From the first time I played it, I HATED IT! I just found it frustrating and maddening. I couldn't really tell what I was doing wrong with many of the recipes. So I became very angry and put the game down promising to never pick it up again.
But when you've got a new game system that you like and only one game to play on it, yes that's right, I gave in and tried Cooking Mama again. After getting a much better idea of what I was doing wrong with the game, I began to have an easier time playing the game. Now I'm totally hooked on it! I'm striving to get gold medals on all of the recipes. And believe it or not, there are a lot of recipes in the game. New recipes are added to your cooking station as you continue the game. There is also a way to make combined recipes from the ones you have already cooked successfully.
So now I spend at least a few hours a night with my Cooking Mama game and I enjoy every minute of it. Even if my angry curses at a difficult recipe should seem to state otherwise. I would recommend this game to anyone. If you can stand a little frustration at the beginning and keep playing, you'll get a lot of fun out of this game.
I'm off now to challenge more recipes so I can have a gold metal on all my recipes. Cooking Mama I will defeat you! Hmmm, sounds like I should be playing some other type of game. A war game perhaps? Naw! Cooking Mama my darling here I come!
