You'll definitely need them as the game progresses and levels become harder when modifiers like impatient customers, attacks from other food trucks, VIP orders etc. As for the food truck upgrades, they are done in a "research tree" manner and some upgrades can be turned on or off as you see fit. Learning and mastering them all is a great fun by itself and I URGE YOU to read the description of each food origin, these are the funniest moments in the game, written in astonishingly hilarious way.
#COOK SERVE DELICIOUS CHEAT ENGINE UPGRADE#
You spend money on acquiring new foods and upgrade points on improving various areas of your truck.Īll foods from CSD1&2 are here and there are bunch of new ones as well. When you accumulate enough money you get a DING and receive a single upgrade point each level. After each day you earn money depending on how many foods you have served, multiplied by food complexity and the biggest combo of perfectly done orders in a row. Once you're past all the stops the day is done and you get a gold (perfect), silver (up to 8 mistakes total) or bronze (up to 15 BIG mistakes) medal. Between the stops you'll be preparing food for holding stations and fulfilling special orders which in first part of the game appear only in between stops. Every road taken is a single level where you have a number of stops to make and serve a good number of local populace at each one. Since we are not in a restaurant anymore, that means a slightly different approach to gameplay this time, but fear not, this is a CSD game all the way, maybe even the best one yet! You travel from state to state, choosing which way to take through each area and its sub-areas (or you just play every single one like I do). He is not alone in this endeavour, help robots Cleaver and Whisk are here to accompany our hero along the way, both awesomely voice acted. In case you're not familiar with this lovely series, you may want to read through my reviews of the first and the second one before you continue reading.Īt the start of Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3?! our chef loses his world class restaurant (again!) but instead of rebuilding (again!!) this time he fires up a food truck and go across war torn futuristic USA to attend an Iron Cook Foodtruck Championship. Since the sale is still active, maybe I'll manage to sway someone to give this awesome game(s) a go. Just wrote a review for this game and decided to share it here. (I prefer to think of it as a short-order cook simulator, in that it captures the hectic feel of preparing orders in food service pretty well, even though it's pretty "gamey" overall.) The developer (or whomever writes the ad copy for his games) called the first game "a hardcore restaurant sim", so that part isn't really GOG's fault. I just don't want anyone to pick them up with undue expectations of what they're getting into.
#COOK SERVE DELICIOUS CHEAT ENGINE SERIES#
None of this is to throw shade on the "CSD" series as I say, they're fun enough for what they are. And while I enjoyed "CSD" well enough, "simulator" doesn't seem like a particularly accurate term for a game in which a significant amount of your revenue may come from celebrity chefs e-mailing you wagers on your ability to achieve arbitrary goals, either. The first didn't involve food trucks at all (I haven't played the second, but the trailer certainly suggests the vast majority of the action takes place in regular, sit-down restaurants). WarlockOne: "The third part of the food truck simulation series" implies that the first two games were food truck simulators. Haven't played it a lot by now, but from my experience the game it's quite different from the others and far from being a cash grab.
The third one tries to combine the best parts from the first and the second games. Just cooking in various restaurants and trying to get the medals and achievements. The second one had a lot more food and great new features, but there wasn't a real campaign. I guess you didn't play the games? The first one had a great campaign. I'm not someone who follows the new hot shit because it looks and perhaps plays very slighty prettier than the previously revered hot shit, sorry.
If its the same engine but with different assets then I see no point in buying it for the time being. I've seen the same thing with a game called Friday Nights at Freddies which took close to 9 years to develop. It absolutely makes me suspicious, kinda like the game turns into a sort of cash cow or something. Now the development seems to be much faster however. CSD1 took quite a long time to develop and it has been like 5 years between the first release of CSD and the second game.
