Cuisineer is a game with a strong core idea, but doesn't invest enough in its systems to keep it interesting. The excellent combat and good restaurant running soon become repetitive as a result.

Cuisineer is a charming game in concept but struggles with execution. The art style and relaxing difficulty make it an enjoyable experience at first, but the repetitive combat and lack of engaging management systems ultimately hold it back.

Cute and incredibly moreish, Cuisineer is a wonderful mix of restaurant management and dungeon crawling. Spend your time split between hunting monsters for ingredients, then cooking them up to make delicious meals. It's a seriously satisfying gameplay loop, and you aren't going to be able to put it down.

Cuisineer is a great game to unwind at night. The vibes in Cuisineer are calming and colorful, but there is some excitement to keep the blood pumping. Managing the restaurant and dungeon crawling for ingredients will make players feel like they need one more run before they shut the game off.

Its unique combination of gameplay and tone helps make players hungry to...

Cuisineer is a game that shines in its variety, even with a slow start. Though, there are some compromises to play on the Steam Deck.

I can’t recommend this game enough for fans of low-impact cozy games with simple, pleasant storylines. There are no big surprises, and in a way, it makes this game all the more enjoyable. You know exactly what you are going to get, and with that, it is easy to get sucked into the gameplay loop without a single worry to hold you back or leave you emotionally vulnerable. It’s just fun, and that makes it completely worth investing time and money into.

While Cuisineer has great theming and cute art design, it's not enough to save it from a tedious cafe manager setup and hideously unbalanced dungeons and combat.
