Chopstick Cooking
Ingredients fly through the air and are caught with chopsticks to build each order.
A reflex game with a memory layer on top. Ingredients fly across the screen, you catch them with chopsticks, and the catch has to match what the current customer ordered — so you are watching two things at once, the flight path and the ticket.
Catching the wrong ingredient does not just waste it: it upsets the customer and takes time off the clock, which means restraint beats reflexes. The correct play is often to let something pass rather than to catch everything available.
The mechanic is unusual and it works, though it belongs to the arcade end of this catalogue rather than the kitchen end. Wide layout, quick rounds, and a difficulty curve that rises through the ingredient speed rather than the order length.

How to Play
- Read what the customer ordered.
- Watch the ingredients crossing the screen.
- Catch only the ones the order needs.
- Build the dish and serve it before the clock runs down.
Tips & Tricks
Let the wrong ingredients pass rather than catching everything. A wrong catch costs clock time and customer patience, and the flight paths repeat often enough that the right piece comes round again.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if you catch the wrong ingredient?
The customer is upset and time is taken off the clock, so letting a piece pass is often better.
Is Chopstick Cooking a reflex game?
Largely, though it also asks you to hold the current order in mind while watching the flight paths.
