What's Cooking with Jamie Oliver
September 22nd 2008 01:45
Two of the UK's most famous chefs, Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, are cooking their way out of the kitchen and into the world of gaming with their latest cooking based games.
What's Cooking with Jamie Oliver brings the celebrity chef and his unique style to the Nintendo DS, with a recipe collection and set of cooking-themed mini-games - who said playing games weren't educational, mum?
Developed by Atari, the game features:
- Real cooking: interactive cook book
- Cooking assistant: shopping helper
- Virtual cooking: on screen with the stylus; Follow Jamie’s recipes; Create your own recipes
You fill 100s of Jamie's recipes in the game for you to create some virtual cuisine using the stylus to perform most chores like chopping, stirring, and pouring. The finished dishes are represented by digital photos much like what you would find in a cookbook and Jamie's familiar voice can be heard in the game. The game will also recognise the player's words like "back" and "next" so you won't have to get your dirty hands anywhere near the DS.
If a particular in-game dish looks appetizing you can save its ingredients to a shopping list, take your DS to the store with you, and reference the items you need. For the recipes that you create, they can be saved for you to recreate in your real kitchen.
