'Cooking Academy' is another great food-themed action game but not one of those restaurant time-management games we've come to expect these days.
The concept of this game reminds me of 'Hot Dish' and is simple yet interesting enough: You start your career as a cook, taking different courses that start with preparing bites, salads and entreés and then moves to breakfast, lunch etc.
The tasks vary and touch closely on real life. You have to chop, slice, mix, add ingredients, boil, bake, fill forms and so on, all within a time-frame as well as a an accuracy frame. You earn a mark like in the school system for each dish and have to get at leas a C in every meal to be able to finish a course. At the end of each course, you have to take an exam which tests selected skills just learnt during the course, within a different time frame and again with marks to pass or fail.
The graphics are colourful and beautiful and quite realistic though not too pretentious to distract you from your tasks. The tasks themselves vary in difficulty, speed and accuracy and can sometimes get quite challenging while always staying close to what you imagine to be the actual tasks of a cook in real life.
There's no multi-tasking as in other games of similar themes but your concentration is nevertheless challenged enough to make this an interesting time-pass.

This game is awesome. I played it for quite some time and the trial ran out eventually. I had bought the game afterwards and ended up beating it in three days. It is a great game. I even went back after I completed all the exams and dishes and tried to get an A or a B on the ones that I got a C on and completed that also. It was a very fun game. I highly recommend this game to others who like diner games like Diner Dash or Wedding Dash because this will keep you occupied for hours if you happen to be bored.

Terrific game. You get to go to cooking school and actually get graded on how well you cook the different recipes. You even have to take exams. I highly recommend this game.
