Story

Gameplay

This game is definitely the first of its kind that I've played - it combines the mechanics behind 2d combat games (like Tekken or Street Fighter), match-three games (like Candy Crush and Bejeweled), and time-based cooking (like Overcooked and Cooking Fever), and distills them into an all-around fun and light gaming experience.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
74 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
TL;DR: BCB is a fun combat-slash-puzzle game with a cute plot, a charming protagonist, and a hearty sprinkling of Iron Chef references (Vive la Brigade!), albeit a bit short.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

The characters do pop from the background, and do have a hint of slight difference in art style, but they are wonderfully unique.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

The soundtrack fits perfectly with the environment and it’s a joy to follow Mina through the very beginning of the story.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.

Its 10 hours long for the story (more or less), worth every sec, very fun, difficulty is nice as well.
