Office Create is a company that specializes in one series and has created a game that became a worldwide hit.
Established in 1990.
Initially, they focused on subcontracted game development, but as their business stabilized, they started releasing their own developed software.
In 2006, they developed and released the Cooking Mama series.
It is sold on devices like the Nintendo DS series, which have built-in touchscreens.
The goal of the game is to cook well.
The cooking steps are instructed by the support character “Mama,” and the player follows and executes these instructions.
The cooking actions are performed in a mini-game format, including chopping, boiling, and frying ingredients, as well as detailed tasks like washing rice and creatively plating the dishes.
The series features recipes not only from Japanese cuisine but also from French cuisine, and includes not just main dishes but also sweets, allowing players to experience and learn a variety of menus.
The Cooking Mama series has sold over 12 million copies worldwide, making it one of the most successful cooking game series.
You want to teach kids about cooking, have them learn, and get to know it, but there are times when having them in the actual cooking environment is dangerous.
That's right~! You can't really have them hold a knife or be there when using the stove, so learning through a game like this is great! It's good that the cooking steps can be learned in a fun mini-game format, and just by playing this series, they can learn about cooking! That's probably why it was such a hit!
If you want to check out the historical Cooking Mama series, this is the page! Here is Office Create's software lineup!
