I have the First Cooking Mamma that came out for the Ds and I also have the one for the WII so I thought I might as well get this one as well. It plays a lot like the first one you chop and wash and stir and boil and cook meals but there is a lot more that you can do on this one VS the first one. They have a lot more things you can make and a lot of new ways of cooking that the first one did not have. They have different modes of play and you can even play with someone friends that have this game. I would say that this game is just good clean fun for the whole family and not a bad way to pass the time. The graphics are good and so is the sound. Give it Try! you can cook up some fun! If you like to cook and have ever played any of the other cooking games that are out and liked them........then you wiil like this one too! If you are insure rent it first or take a chance. It's worth it!
