Family Friendliness: Cooking Mama Cook Off may seem quirky at times, but kids and parents alike will enjoy the unique cooking gameplay that will see you chopping furiously, solving puzzles and more as you create dishes from 10 different countries.

Highlights:
- It's great fun to feel like you are chopping, stirring, sauteeing and more with the Wii remote

- Even if you make a mistake, you still move forward with the recipe, and practice mode is a great way to be able to perfect techniques over and over
Lowlights:
- Quirky Japanese and international foods won't seem very appetizing to picky young American eaters

-  Sometimes Mama can be a little difficult to understand, or directions may be a bit unclear, especially for younger gamers

Game Details:

The Wii Remote is the ultimate cooking utensil, putting you in total control of the cooking action as you chop, grate, slice, stir, roll and much more! Hold and point it in many different ways depending on the task (i.e. upright to mash potatoes, lengthwise to fry in a pan, etc.) to get the real sensation of cooking in a kitchen.

Cooking Challenge Mode lets you and a friend go head-to-head in the ultimate multiplayer cook off to determine who can cook the fastest with the fewest mistakes

Cooking Mama Cook Off uses300 foods to create 55 real world dishes from 10 different nations: Japan, America, France, India, Mexico, England, China, Spain, Germany and Italy. You can even make desserts like cream puffs and pudding.  From hot dogs to pan fried crab to bouillabaisse, Cook Off challenges you to make it all.

Real-time cooking effects make you feel like you're actually cooking. Adjust your timing and make decisions about your next course of action based on what you see on screen (i.e. if food is starting to look burned, quickly remove it from the burner, etc.). 

Recipes progress from simple to complex, from small to large dishes, so do your best to meet Mama's expectations as you unlock new dishes.
