Well for anyone who cares, I got the game today and played quite a bit of it. There are a lot of recipes (76, I believe) but most of them are spawned from the same core recipe. For example, Fried Rice will branch off to Chicken FR, Shrimp FR, etc. While it's pretty fun and addicting for a while (and thankfully, not tainted for US audiences), essentially it lacks replay value since there's not much to do after you unlock the recipes. Even though there's a mini-game mode where you test out your skills as the levels advance (like how fast you can chop an onion) there's no story mode, challenge mode, nothing. The only thing you can do via WiFi is share created combination recipes with a friend. Not surprising that it's only $20. Oh well, it'll keep me amused for a while, so it's not a bad buy.
