The soup of heart-warming.
Only big thing about the gameplay is: you really they need to take it easy with the tutorials, no need for all the textual interruptions with back-to-back cooking. I think even just figuring out on the fly how to use the utensils is straight-forward enough, just need to say "Wash" or "Stir" in the corner and it'd be good.
But yeah the cooking part is not bad.
The art and sound direction is fantastic by the way, blows me away. Also how very sweet of Marisa to be so thoughtful in her cooking. Thoughts so powerful they may have cooked the dishes.
Marisa, why do you always have that... skull-and-crossbone "seasoning" at your cooking table?
