Are there any plans for Valentine’s Day? Tomorrow through February 16, relationship ruined co-op play Well done 2 will be playable at no extra cost to anyone with a Nintendo Switch Online membership – “just in time for Valentine’s Day!”
Well done 2 is a game where meals are prepared in the pressure cooker environment of a busy kitchen. Players must collect ingredients, chop vegetables, cook meat, wash dishes, try not to burn anything, put out fires when you do, and deliver finished meals to the front of the house. Levels have different environmental challenges. Oh, yes, you are timed too.
Certainly, it is about “cooking”. But like anyone who has played can testify, Well done 2 not really about cooking. Her about communication and coordination. It’s about turning up the heat and cranking up the tension. It’s about seeing who has what it takes – and who doesn’t. Well done 2 tests the collaborative skills and bonds between people and eventually shatters them like a pile of thin ceramics falling at a dinner party.
“Just in time for Valentine’s Day!” The folks at Nintendo know what they are doing. May your love be strong enough to survive the gauntlet.
