You may remember that earlier this year, Aussie based mobile gaming developer Halfbrick announced that they would be branching out into the world of publishing. Personally, Halfbrick is one of my favourite development companies and they’ve really proven themselves by bringing out top quality game after top quality game. It appears as though their venture into the publishing realm will be no different, as CitrusJoy’s Yes Chef! is launched by Halfbrick on iOS and Android devices.
The newest three match puzzle game sees players adopting the character of an apprentice chef, Cherry, who has dreams of becoming the best chef in the world! Your abilities as a chef increase as you complete each level, offering different upgrades in order to harness your newfound talent. If you’re connected to the internet (WIFI is fine) you’ll also be eligible for a daily reward when you return to play the game, which varies from virtual currency to different in-game perks. Each level is cleared by switching the different ingredients on the board to create matches of 3 or more.
What I like best about Yes Chef! is that while all levels are based around the traditional formatting of a three match puzzle game, your goals or objectives vary greatly. For instance, in some levels you may simply be aiming to reach a set score, while in others you will be racing to fulfill customers’ orders in your restaurant. As with any game published or developed by the Halfbrick name, users can expect smooth gameplay, sharp colours and impressive graphics. The story is fun and the characters are adorable – all in all, this is the perfect example of what a three match puzzle game should aspire to be.
Yes Chef! is now available to download for free in both the Google Play Store and iTunes App Store. And, if you simply can’t get enough of Halfbrick games, be sure to check out the latest Halloween update for Fruit Ninja which sees you playing amongst a Ghostbusters content update!
After 5+ years in development, we're excited ...
