The Short Game

111: Overcooked

Listen Later

Couch co-op comes to the kitchen this week as we talk about Overcooked, a culinary party game from Ghost Town Games. Overcooked was one of the most talked about local multiplayer experiences of 2016 so we’re happy to make it our first game of 2017.

Each game of Overcooked takes only a few minutes, and a pair of dedicated chefs can tackle its co-op campaign mode in around six hours. Overcooked is available on Steam for Windows as well as on PS4 and Xbox One. It’s also available on physical disc for both consoles.
