Before you get there, however, you'll walk the long, uphill road toward establishing yourself in the business. Your ultimate aim in the game is to win the 'Fortified Chef Competition,' the ultimate contest for local chefs that takes place on a cruise ship and serves as the game's final stage. You play an up-and-coming chef in Order Up, looking to make your name in Port Abello, an island town that is home to a bunch of foodies.

We've had a chance to spend the last couple of days with this lighthearted look at the food business to see how it's coming along ahead of its July release.Ĭooking requires fresh ingredients, delicate timing, and a little spice to top it off in Order Up. While the immediate comparison to the Cooking Mama series is obvious, Order Up takes the idea of virtual cooking to the next level: Here, you're not just preparing meals, you're running a restaurant. Welcome to the hectic world of Order Up, an upcoming cooking game for the Nintendo Wii from developer SuperVillain Studios. On top of all that, you're running low on spices and your sous chef just fell asleep on the job. You've got a four-top that's been waiting far too long, three tickets on the rack, and rats invading your kitchen.
