Order Up Screen Shots

Order Up is a Minigames game available on the Wii. It can be played in Competitive Cooperative modes.

Order Up is a Minigames game. Mini games come in a variety of shapes and sizes. What unites the genre is the speed with which players can pickup the games and the relativley short time requried to complete a level or two.

Order Up can be played in a Competitive mode. Competitive Multiplayer games provide experiences where players compete against each other and the computer. Obviously lending itself to sports and team games, these competitive engagements have also dominated the shooting and fighting genres because of the direct combat and expertise involved in each. Although these games were originally played in a split screen style, more recently they are played online via services such as PlayStation Network, Xbox Live and the Nintendo Wireless Connection.

Order Up can be played in a Cooperative mode. Cooperative Multiplayer games provide an experience that is played symaltaneously by multiple players. Unlike the simple arena competitive multiplayer style games where players try to kill the most enemies, true co-operative games are designed to take a group of players through a campaign experience together. This will involve sections where players have to work together to proceed - either from the sheer difficulty as in Halo 3 on 360 or by the design of levels such as LittleBigPlanet on PS3.

This Diner-style cooking game has a funky retro feel with a great story to back up the seriously challenging cooking tasks!

I played this a while ago and it stood out in my mind as one of the best games I've come across. Coming back to it again more recently, I was not disappointed. Even after playing a few good cooking games recently this one still stands our as being really well thought through.

Family Gamer review Sun, 11 Nov 2007

Cooking video games were something of a misnomer, that is before the launch of the Nintendo Wii and DS. Since then we have been treated to all manna of culinary challenges - from the minigames of Hell's Kitchen DS to the complex task driven Cooking Mama DS and Cooking Mama Wii.

Order Up is one of the first games in the genre that focuses on fun rather than novelty. It combines restaurant management with some solid cooking gameplay without much of the fuss of other cooking titles.
