very beautiful game, huge depth in story... felt deeply relating as an immigrant myself. however not exactly recommended if ur searching for a cooking simulator, game is very short and only has a few cooking to do. would be lovely if there is more recipes to make like surely theres more in grandma's cooking book right.
o jogo é bem curtinho e os puzzles são mt fáceis, mas eu acho o visual muuito lindo e a história emocionante (além de ser legal conhecer um pouquinho mais sobre uma cultura diferente!)
能理解作者想表达的意思,但是游戏性实在是太差了,做饭内容少,而且都是点点鼠标就能完成的操作。画风很好看,食物做的也让人很有食欲,但是游戏流程很短且故事占了大头,全是对话和动画,非常枯燥乏味,故事也很无聊。还有开头女主生病了还要给老公做饭真的看力竭了。整体氛围很压抑,玩的人很不开心。
Le jeu en lui même est choupi si vous aimez les petits narratifs, les interactions sont rare mais suffisante. Ne vaut pas du tout son plein tarif à mon sens, par contre. Mais il est régulièrement autour des 4-5€ en promo sur Steam, ce qui est correct pour l’expérience proposée. (Il peut aussi se trouver pour 1€ sur instant) Très court, je l’ai laisser tourné en arrière plan sans faire gaffe d’où les 5h de jeu mais en réalité en 1h-1h30 c’est plié.
Now I'm hungry... A delightful little story with textured visuals and an outstanding soundtrack.
great story and sound design
很感人的小故事,除了有点贵可以等打折买 推荐身边有移民二代朋友的对这个事情有认知的可以get到作者的点 也能理解差评没对上电波确实不建议买了玩 毕竟就是个一小时的动画小短片

Incredibly touching and relevant story. Beautiful short game.
