Cook-Out: A Sandwich Tale review — Culinary chaos in VR

Resolution Games, the creators of virtual reality experiences with millions of downloads, is launching its virtual reality game Cook-Out: A Sandwich Tale today on the Oculus Rift and Oculus Quest VR headsets. The game has you building sandwiches for hungry animals in a kitchen with up to four line cooks. Despite the stress of the VR kitchen, I enjoyed myself.

Cook-Out is part of the Stockholm-based company‘s continuing quest to make accessible, casual, and funny VR games to help drive mainstream consumer adoption of the tech. Headed by Tommy Palm, the studio has previously created titles such as Angry Birds VR: Isle of Pigs, Bait, and Acron: Attack of the Squirrels. The latest game, Cook-Out, is pure culinary chaos with a sense of stress reminiscent of “Oh, I messed up the order” in games like Diner Dash or Overcooked.
