Game overview

Chef City is a time-management restaurant game that keeps widening the menu. Donuts, burgers, sausages, pizza, sandwiches, cake, barbecue and fries all come through the same kitchen, and the customers arriving each have their own patience. Tips reward speed, coins go into faster appliances and kitchen decoration, and better equipment is what lets you unlock the next restaurant instead of stalling on a level you cannot keep up with.

This title is best suited to players who want a long time-management kitchen game.
