## Description
In this cooking game you will start as an apprentice in a new restaurant of
Sarah Wiener, an Austrian TV cook and author of several cooking books. During
the course of the game – and provided you don’t make too many mistakes – you
will play the role of all the various cooks up to serving a special meal as
the head cook of the restaurant.
In each position you will have to cook several recipes, all of them taken from
Sarah Wiener’s cooking books. In the beginning you can read the recipe (which
can also be used for cooking the dish in real life); you will then get a
virtual kitchen prepared with the required raw ingredients and a selection of
tools like a knife, pots or a rasp needed for this recipe. Most of the
ingredients will have to be prepared, e.g. by washing, cutting or rasping
them, then use the pots and plates to mix them together, fry them or decorate
them. A popup dialog will tell you some basics facts about the ingredient or
item and a hint on what to do with it next. When in doubt you can always have
another look at the recipe.
A lot of actions like cutting, mixing or pureeing things will trigger a
minigame where you have to imitate the movement you would do in real life –
for example cutting a cucumber will require moving the mouse up and down over
a certain line repeatedly, other possible movements are moving the mouse left
/ right or in circles. These minigames are time-constrained and will decrease
the dexterity score when not executed fast enough. When making mistakes (e.g.
using unwashed vegetables, mixing ingredients at the wrong time or using the
wrong tools) will decrease your culinary skill – and when you made too many
mistakes the session will be cancelled.
When completing a meal you will get a real photograph as a reward and
nutrition information about the ingredients.
