Better than Lost Tales 1, which I thought was a dud, but not even close to H of the K 2 & 3. There's no incentive to wander around after completing the mission because the resources don't replenish.
The Robot is useless. It allows food to burn on the stove. There needs to be an option to turn him off. And what's the point of offering four burners to cook but only two warming spots?
Big Fish needs to add another rating category: Originality. For which CW 11 would get a zero from me. First HO scene and the first puzzle are the same as the previous release. Recycled scenes. Same music. Same collectables. Same type of mini games. I was excited for 11 to be released but now I don't think I'll waste two game credits on it. I can just replay the old ones. For anyone not already familiar with the series, I'd recommend it. For those who've followed this series since the beginning, nope.
I've been clicking and clicking looking for another "clue" to finally get me out of Quest 1. I have the bowl of water and stone tiles but I can't seem to be able to use them anywhere. And then I am unable to clear the pop up that says I "can't use that object here" except to end the game completely through Task Manager. I had the same issue playing the demo but didn't take heed and wasted a game coupon anyway.

I look forward to this game every year although I have been noticing a few scenes that are identical to those in Christmas Wonderland 7. I hope Wonderland 11 comes out soon and not held up until Christmas Day or later.
As others have pointed out, it's a glitchy, frustrating game.
I would love it if one of the developers of these TM cooking games allowed the player to design the kitchen. Restaurant Management 101. You don't put your ingredients and appliances in inconvenient and inefficient places.
I love HOG but this one had the look and feel of a game developed decades ago. That seems to be the trend. Resurrect old games and sell them as new releases at full price.
I enjoy the Jewel Match games but scrolling continues to be an issue particularly in the "puzzle" games.Unless you can find the stupid hand (if there is one) that allows you move around the screen or you can make a match towards wherever you want to go, you're stuck. And full screen mode seems to be the only option.Clicking off full screen barely changes the size.I think it's time to get some new music too.
