   OK, this game is way better than it had any right to be.
   
   It's basically Shokugeki no Soma: you want to join the Battle Chef Brigade, and for that you need to hone you cooking skills and win cooking matches against your fellow contestants.
   The gameplay is a simple match 3, with a couple of twists: you pick and choose which ingredients you'll use, and different ingredients have different shapes and matching symbols, so you "make your board" everytime.
   You also need to hunt for your ingredients. You have a hunting ground with a decent 2d platformer/beat'em up gameplay. In each challenge, the judges will tell you what's the "theme" of the dish (a creature that must be used as ingredient) and will give hints about what are their favorite flavors.
   Then you have 5 minutes to go out, beat the crap out of a bunch of monsters, gather their meat and turn it into a decent dish for the contest.
   
   The game has a "colorful cast of characters" (in the good way, as far as I've seen) in the other contestants and instructors, a neat game loop and a less than stellar voice acting, but still is pretty cool.
