A cooking game that me and my friend are currently developing, are looking for ideas to do with our game name. The aim of the game is to cook for customers in a certain amount of time. It will be a round based game, where you and your friends/other players can vote for a different restaurant on a different part of the map each round and work in a different environment. If you do not serve the customers in time, the customers will leave. The aim at the end of the game is to reach the set amount of dishes completed for that round.

So the game name we have at the minute is currently: The Bad Cookbook

Co-Developer here.

To clarify, this is a cartoonish/comedy style game which is meant to be fast-paced, played among friends and extremely fun for a whole party to take part in, hence “Bad” in the name, comedic effect. “Bad Cookbook” had a feeling of something being left hanging. “The Cookbook” felt too serious. Otherwise we haven’t had any other ideas, which is where you guys come in, thanks in advance!

I always struggle with naming a game! Ik it’s a mess, usually people suggest playing around with the basic mechanic // reason for the game?

I’ve attached a couple of ideas:-

  • What’s Cookin’?
  • Cookbook: Legacy
  • SnackTime!
  • Let’s Cook!

  • LunchTime!

  • Lunch Rush!

  • Lunch Hour!

  • Time4Dinner

  • Customer Care!

  • Serving Time

Edit:

Added some more!

Hmm, this sounds like an interesting round-based game, hope to check it out on its release date

For the name, I’m thinking of something like this: The Cookout, Cook In Time, Restaurant Rush, Meal Serveout

That’s all I can think of, well good luck on your success of your game buddy!

You focus a lot on the idea of time or action, though I can’t really see the appeal in either:

  • Time can often be synonymous to stress and that’s not what we’re trying to express, it’s not really a “rush” or an “hour”, it’s 5 minute segments in which you serve as much as you can, but it doesn’t feel like a proper dinner service, hence “Time4Dinner” not really functioning.
  • Action such as “Customer Care” or “Let’s Cook” sounds cheesy/boring and forced respectively, “Let’s Dance” works as a name because dancing is this fun action that everyone loves and knows is enjoyable, cooking on the other hand can’t directly be regarded as such.

I did however like “Cookbook: Legacy” and “What’s Cookin’” though the latter could be hot waters afaik. Thank you for the suggestions! Myself and IyC will discuss them.

The Cooking Drills, Recipe for disaster, I personally like Recipe for disaster cause of the play on words.
