About

Chinese cooking themed action/rpg game released for the Sony Playstation by Nippon Ichi Software in 1998. The game is played in a top-down scrolling arena, in which you control your character and try to hunt down the animals that serve as the base of your recipes, once defeated you must perform special moves while cooking them, which decides the type of dish you get. Hitting each animal with the varied vegetables and seasonings found littered across the arena also expands the range of dishes you can create. At the same time the opposing player is actively trying to hunt down his own animals and can hit you to try to steal your dish (and vice-versa), the one that finishes first winning the match. The game features colorful anime-styled cutscenes between fights, and includes a single-player story mode and a 2-player Vs mode, in which you can freely select from all the chefs in the game.

Story

The star of the game is Hao, a Chinese guy who wears a flowing red cape and wields a deadly ladel. At the beginning, he walks into a restaurant, and impressed everyone with his cool demeanor. He asks the head chef if he's seen a white haired girl. Suspecting that the young stranger is a minion of the evil Ajimaou (Flavor Demon King), he attacks Hao with a ladel, who effortlessly catches it with his chopsticks.
