How to Play
Imagine you and your partner navigating a series of wacky kitchens, each with its own set of challenges. You'll need to chop, cook, and plate various dishes, all while dealing with obstacles like moving platforms, fires, and even portals. Communication and coordination are key, as you'll often find yourselves tossing ingredients across the room to beat the clock.
