Gears of War and Overcooked are series that at first glance are hard to put side by side. The South Korean studio JofSoft decided to draw inspirations from both of them. The combination of characteristic elements of them resulted in the game Pizza Bandit, which is a shooter enriched with the necessity of preparing dishes.

Gameplay

In Pizza Bandit we watch the action from a third-person perspective (TPP).

Mercenary-dreamer

The game transports us to a science fiction universe and allows us to embody a mercenary named Malik, who dreams of opening his own pizzeria. To accomplish this, the protagonist uses his skills and takes on tasks involving time travel and eliminating hordes of enemies. In the meantime, the hero is also learning how to cook.

Not only fighting opponents

The pillar of the game are missions that take us to different places and eras. We have various goals to achieve there, and numerous enemies to overcome. We eliminate opponents using a wide range of weapons (firearms and melee) and gadgets. Given that travels educate, along the way we must learn to cook, preparing dishes such as sushi, steaks or grilled chicken.

Character development

Simultaneous fighting and cooking requires us to divide our attention. Enemies can attack at any moment, so by focusing too much on the contents of pots and pans, we risk a lot. It's still worth it, as we gain culinary experience and also unlock recipes for our restaurant.
