Family Style is pure, unadulterated chaos, and I love every second of it. It’s a cooperative cooking game that turns your group of friends into a screaming, laughing mess as you pass ingredients from one screen to another. The concept is simple: you have a recipe, but your friend has the ingredients you need, so you literally flick them across the table to their device.

It’s one of the few games that truly utilizes the physical space between players. The art is adorable, and the progression through different cuisines keeps the recipes feeling fresh. It’s the ultimate party game for a group of 2 to 8 people, though it might test the strength of your friendships when someone forgets to pass the tomatoes for the fifth time in a row.

Dinsun Review

Usually, I find 'hectic' games to be an excuse for poor design, but Family Style actually manages to make the chaos feel earned. The mechanic of passing ingredients between phones is tactile and clever. It’s one of the few mobile games that actually feels like a 'board game' night.

My gripe? It’s stressful. At 40, I don't necessarily want my blood pressure spiking while I'm trying to find a digital carrot. It’s also entirely dependent on having friends in the same room. If you’re alone, this game doesn't exist. For what it is, it's well-executed, if a bit shallow after the third or fourth round.

COOPERATIVE

A great kitchen needs all hands on deck! Pass ingredients to your teammates to help them complete dishes and win the round, but don't forget to stay alert. You might have the missing ingredient your friend needs.

FRANTIC

Time is constantly ticking down so recipes need to be completed as soon as possible! In the dinner rush madness, your table space might become too cluttered. Don’t let your station get too messy or you'll have a hard time passing ingredients.

It’s not easy running a kitchen with friends! While it can sometimes be a messy and hectic affair, nothing is as fulfilling and fun as successfully completing a complex recipe through superb communication.
