Ratings and reviews

i loved the game ! the animation was cute and very fun. had a great time playing ❤️ learnt a lot too,, but there seems to be very few things to do.. after you get gold on all seven countries its kinda boring :( wish they added more countries that's the only bad thing it's so disappointing to see a good game be ruined ADD MORE LEVELS!!

This game is one of the best games ever and I recommend this game to add a character making station but not with money or passwords or emails, just your name , age and date,year of birth . Also the music played in Lebanon is 100% real music played in my area . But if the creators (you guys ) don't like my ideas i'm sorry . The app is great the way it is , keep adding updates . I thought this was scary , but its not. This app is great the way it is . please answer my questions .

The game is fun overall is pretty cool to learn about other dishes and cultures but once you get gold on all and experiment with different food it gets boring to play after a while so I don't recommend 🤷🏾‍♀️
