Starting a career - how to begin | Cooking Simulator Cooking Simulator guide, tips

Last update: 04 July 2019

The beginning of the game can have two forms, depending on whether we play the tutorial or not. What is worth noting is that there is at least one reason to play the tutorial even in the case of experienced players - this is a trick allowing for the purchase of the decoration for our kitchen, without paying for it.

With the tutorial

If you click 'yes' in the window welcoming you in the introductory part of the game, you will land in a rather dilapidated kitchen - the young manager who just hired us will say that we need to fix the mess left by the predecessor, and get the kitchen back to "working" condition. To do this, take the phone and carry out some repairs...

{remotely}ATTENTION - this is the moment (using a much too large budget for repairs), when we can buy all zero-level visual improvements available for the kitchen, without worrying about the impact to our budget - best to do this when repairing the oven - instead of having to call professionals to repair it, lower the phone, take the laptop and toggle bookmarks (between owned and not) and buy... everything (that is currently available). Remember to confirm the "montage" of each of the decorations with the blue button with price!{/framed}

...after that, following her advice, we will complete the basic set of recipes, necessary components and tools - when we deal with this, she will introduce us to her colleague - the chef, who will guide us to prepare the first meal.

This is used to familiarize us with the mechanics - we described all of them in the section "Game Mechanics."

As soon as we cope with the tutorial, we move on to the proper game - the preparation phase on the first day. Fix what you need in the tools and ingredients layout in the kitchen, make sure you remember our tips from the section "How to work effectively?" and go for it!

Without a tutorial

...we start in a fully functional kitchen during the preparation phase on the first day, which gives us only a few minutes to prepare the posts and set up all the tools.
