It suddenly feels like you're piloting chefs like move like tiny drunk hippos - slow, sluggish and very imprecise. Strangely enough, if you've played the original game you might also notice that the controls feel a lot different this time around. Lining up a load of mid-prep pizzas on a bench that goes back in towards the rear of the kitchen means lots of tiny little icons overlapping, making it tricky to see what needs cheese STAT. In order to prepare them correctly, you have to chop the dough, add chopped cheese and sliced tomatoes and layer all three together before slamming the entire thing in an oven.

On the one hand that's part of Overcooked 2's particular brand of glorious mayhem, but on the other it can be infuriating. You've got plates of food, all your ingredients at various stages of preparation and it can feel a little muddled. It's often the case that there's a lot going on on screen in Overcooked 2.

It's an absolute delight on the Switch's own screen, but if you want to go big with TV mode or the PS4, Xbox One or PC version, you might find that you're moving your sofa closer to the TV. It doesn't help that the game regularly feels like everything is just a little bit too small for the big screen. Thankfully, I don't have those kinds of friends, but it is the type of game that makes you realised you haven't blinked in a really long time. In fact, I've known couples that physically can't play Overcooked together because of the rows it causes.

It's well known that a session of Overcooked can be quite stressful, and those that play it either work impeccably well as a little cheffing team, or have major friendship / relationship breakdowns.
