Lucy finally catches up with Cooking Mama 3 on the Nintendo DS.
Does it have the ingredients for success?
If you go wrong, youre likely to fail.
Judges will try out your creations and give points based on how they taste.
Combine and Create: This mode is for nothing short of an expert.
Here youre expected to create your own recipes from ingredients and cooking techniques youve used before.
Lets Shop: Here youll head to the shops to pick up what you need for your yummy recipes!
Time Challenge: Play against up to three friends using Wi-fi play.
Take part in timed cooking challenges to determine who is the fastest chef!
Picture Diary: Keep a scrapbook of your favourite dishes in this digital picture diary.
This game works well on the DS.
I found myself playing the Lets Cook mode more than anything , simply because its more fun.
You still get the sense of achievement of completing something, even if you didnt do it perfectly.
I felt the other modes were either too tough, particularly for younger players, or surplus to requirements.
The Picture Diary is something that I think will only really appeal to younger players.
Overall,Cooking Mama3 is average.
For this reason, I stuck to the Lets Cook mode, which kept me mildly entertained.
Cooking Mama 3is out now andavailable from the Den Of Geek Store.
