DFG Exclusive Review
Pros
- Follows TV show closely, including the two famous judges Padma Lakshmi and Tom Colicchio.
- Two Quickfire Challenges give you a chance to practice before the Elimination Round.
- Powerups give you more variety and options for your dishes so you can get the best score possible.
- You choose what to put in, so each dish is unique and changes based on the ingredients you choose.
- Before the challenge you get hints on what kinds of ingredients to use and what ingredients work well together.
Cons
- Storyline is detached and doesn't follow what you do in the challenges at all; just sort of random comments by competitors.
- Some powerups are confusing and don't seem to actually help.
- Very difficult to get enough “Classic Combo” bonuses to get five stars on a dish, and impossible to do better than three stars without “Classic Combos”.
- You only get a set number of ingredients and sometimes they don't match what you are asked to put in the dish, which limits your score and becomes frustrating.

Top Chef Review Summary
The Top Chef game follows the TV show admirably, with voiceovers and appearances by its two famous judges, the same format including Quickfire Challenges and Elimination Rounds, and a good deal of freedom in creating your dishes. It's a lot of fun to choose what ingredients to use and to see if the judges like your unique creations, but it is very frustrating to be limited by the random ingredients into a bad score and to watch the terribly done storyline.
However, fans of the show will get a kick out of cooking for Padma and Tom, and even those who have never seen the show will probably enjoy the game for a short time, so it's worth the download.

Game Description
Take Part in the Popular Cooking TV Show!
Join a group of amateur chefs as they compete to become the Top Chef. Play the part of the young and naïve chef, Anna, as she competes against her arrogant, condescending rival, Charles, and the rest of the contestants.
Take part in a 15 episode series each involving two Quickfire rounds (prepare dishes with specific criteria) and one Elimination round (make multiple courses to stay in the game). Don't be that chef who gets the lowest score and must "pack up your knives" and head home.
Interesting Game Style
While other cooking games give you a recipe or make you explicitly follow a to-do list for a dish, Top Chef provides a slightly different challenge.
For each dish, you have to add the ingredients that you think are most appropriate. For instance when making a vegetable side dish, the game might ask for a red vegetable. Then after looking in your pantry, you can choose either to add a tomato or a red pepper. The choice is yours.
You have a variety of ingredients to choose from, all of which fall into three types: vegetables, meats and protein, and flavorings. It will take all of your skills to pick just the right ingredient that adds that distinct flavor which will complete a dish.
Be Creative With Your Dishes
Top Chef presents a fun and challenging game experience. With a wide assortment of ingredients and a variety of ways to combine them, you can create nearly any meal.
Play around until you find the perfect blend of spices and meats which will impress those judges. See how many episodes you can last in this ambitious TV show simulation.
If you enjoy cooking games or the reality TV series, download Top Chef today and find that dish which will seal your victory as the Top Chef!

Top Chef is a highly addictive game, you’ll be looking for all kinds of free trials of it until you decide to purchase. You can’t stop. Whether you’re a novice or a pro at cooking your going to love top chef, with unlimited combinations you’ll be dying to get a 5 star rating from the judges. Figure out what’s savory and salty and what’s earthy and green! but don’t worry it gives you some handy pointers and tips. There’s also a “cheat sheet” of options available to you such as figuring out JUST what ingredient they’re looking for. I guarantee once you play you’ll be hooked, and probably in your kitchen trying to make your own dish, it’s unlike any other cooking game out there, realistic and giving you the option to choose your own ingredients!
