I'm utterly rubish at cooking. I also cannot allow my mother to try and teach me how to cook because she is annoying when she does so. When I heard about this game I was incredibley pessimistic, it had the potentional to be awful like a lot of DS educational games (a lot of them are awful by the way) this isn't one of them. It's so easy to use, and whilst the voice recognition is not perfect (though I am a geordie so that may not be their fault!) it is still a handy thing to have. I love the note taking capability and after cooking the dish I write the rough price of each dish so when I'm skint I can see what I can afford! I'm off to Spain for a month soon where I shall have to fend for myself and this will be a great tool to take with me when I'm stuck for ideas. I also think this would be a great idea for getting kids involved in cooking as it is an innovative, fun and clever tool whilst at the same time appealing to the adult market.

Being the sort of person that would like to do more in the kitchen but not having a clue where to start i figured this product might come in handy. Tried it out for the first time today and was very impressed. The recipie ideas look great with a large variety to choose from and the step by step guide carries you through each stage from choosing ingredients all the way to serving the dish. My only gripe was with the voice system, a little too sensitive and often have to shout for it to work though that doesnt take away from the overall usefullness of this product!

The Cooking game is really good you don't need alot of ingidence like in most cook books, and they are very affordable, hope they bring more cooking guides out .
