Cooking Games Online is a hand-picked catalogue of browser games about kitchens. We do not develop them — independent studios do, and the games reach us through a distribution network that licenses them for embedding.
What we do is decide which titles deserve a page, group them so they can be found, and describe what each one actually is. That last part means writing from the game rather than from its store blurb, including the times a game is not what its name implies: a launcher wearing an apron is described as a launcher, and a puzzle with food pieces is described as a puzzle.
Some things we will not do. We do not display play counts we have not measured or star ratings we have not collected. We do not build sections or new pages around other companies’ brands, and where a title resembles a well-known commercial series we say plainly on its page that we are not affiliated with its publisher.
Sections are decided by what a game asks of the player rather than by what appears on the plate, because that is the distinction that actually helps somebody choose. Everything runs free in a browser tab, with no installer and no account.
