Good game, but it sits 100% of the way from its all-time low to full price. It drops harder in seasonal sales. Patience pays.

About this game

What this game is, in the developer's words

A realistic cooking sim where every ingredient reacts with real physics. Master 80+ dishes in Career mode or go wild in Sandbox as you cook, experiment, or cause total kitchen chaos in a fully interactive chef’s playground.

Check out Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together!


About the Game

Welcome to the ultimate kitchen playground for players who want skill, freedom, and a little bit of chaos.

Cooking Simulator gives you full control of a pro-level kitchen packed with tools, ingredients, and physics-driven systems that make every action feel alive. Learn the craft, chase perfection, or set everything on fire just to see what happens. 

YOUR KITCHEN, YOUR RULES

This is your full chef arsenal: ovens, grills, gas burners, pots, pans, plates, knives, blenders, mixers, and more. Stock your pantry with over 140 ingredients including meats, fish, veggies, fruits, dairy, oils, liquids, herbs, and spices. 

Everything reacts to your hands. Heat it, cool it, slice it, spill it, burn it, break it. If you can try it in a real kitchen, you can pull it off here. 

REAL PHYSICS. REAL COOKING. REAL CHAOS. 

Every move matters. Pouring soup, flipping steaks, cutting vegetables, tossing ingredients, or knocking something off the counter all play out with real physics. 

Go for perfect execution or create the kind of disasters only a videogame kitchen can survive. 

CHOOSE YOUR PLAYSTYLE

Career Mode

Build your reputation from the ground up. Learn techniques, unlock 80+ recipes, improve your timing, speed, and consistency, and grow your restaurant’s fame. Pick perks and skills that fit your cooking style and become a kitchen legend. 

Sandbox Mode 

No pressure. No rules. Infinite freedom. 

Mess around with every tool, recipe, and ingredient right away. Build dishes, run experiments, or push the physics engine to absolute chaos. 

Stack cutting boards like dominoes, throw knives, light the kitchen on fire, blow up the oven, then save the day with a fire extinguisher. It’s your playground.
