Star Chef™ : Cooking Game 4+

favorite game now on Mac

I have been playing this game on my iPhone for over 2 years and my restaurant has become big and complex to manage on the small screen. I am really glad that this game is finally available on Mac! I love playing this game in between my work as well as during specific in game events! Really please to see it here..

No Help!

I was loving this game. I made a few in app purchases. After a while, I tried to make an in app purchase, only to be told, out of no where, that the purchase could not be made and to contact Apple Support. So I did, and I verified my payment information, they said there were no issues with my payment. Still could not make in app purchases. Contacted game developer help service. Explained the situation, and got an email with basic trouble shooting tasks. Completed tasks and problem still active. Informed developer and waited. Everytime i sent an email, i received same generic email stating to complete generic troubleshooting tasks and “let them know if problem continues”. Then, after last email, recieved no reply. finally received a reply stating they were closing the conversation because they had not heard from me in two days. And now if I try to make a purchase, the screen just freezes, forcing me to restart my computer. Also, during game play, items on my screen just disappear and force me to restart the computer due to not having a quit game button. Customer service is non existant.

Awesome but Expensive

I love this game. Truly. I have no issues with the real-time cooking. I love how it’s not super easy and therefore not boring. I do have a problem with how it’s very difficult to play unless you pay for in app purchases. I get the company needs to make money, but it’s VERY difficult to play without. Just a tweak to how much appliances cost, or even better, a tweak to how much the food you buy at the grocery store costs would be amazing. Not a huge change but enough where a player doesn’t have to wait a week to grow, cook, and water. Each dish made gives you 1 or 2 finished products. That’s it. If a tree needs to be watered, it takes THIRTY-TWO goodies to do so, and you never need just one tree watered. Because it’s so addicting, which is done on purpose, I’m aware, I’ve spent several HUNDRED dollars on in-app purchases. I can’t do that anymore. I’m looking for something else to play. But if you have a lot of patience or money, then this is definitely an excellent game!
