15 BRUTALLY Hard Video Games (That Are Actually Fun)

When surfing channels on a weekday evening, it isn't hard to find a cooking show showing all the stresses and horrors of running a kitchen. Team 17 have managed to distil that stress perfectly into the cutesy, friendship destroying wonder that is Overcooked 2.

Each level pits up to 4 chefs with a series of signature dishes to prepare, cook and deliver in time. Though there are the obvious perils like time management and map hazards to avoid, what makes Overcooked 2 such a mammoth challenge is coordinating with your fellow chefs. Making sure that every task is being managed, whilst not losing your cool when the map starts throwing all kinds of challenges your way takes an iron will and severe determination. A determination that is almost certainly broken when your mate has inadvertently forgotten to wash THE GOD DAMN DISHES AGAIN FOR THE 5TH BLOODY TIME.

Overcooked 2 is frantic, relentless and exhausting. Though some friendships might crumble under the unbearable weight of culinary burdon, some beautiful couch co-op memories can be formed in the fiery crucible of the kitchen.
