I really loved this. The characters and dialogue are genuinely funny, the voice acting is great. Puzzles are logical and engaging. The only downside is that the game left me wanting more time with it.

Uncle Lee’s Cookbook is a wonderfully charming point-and-click adventure that I thoroughly enjoyed from beginning to end. The clever puzzles, quirky humour and delightfully strange characters kept me entertained throughout, while each new disaster felt fresh and unpredictable. Ines is a brilliant protagonist, and Uncle Lee’s ridiculous experiments create plenty of memorable moments. It’s funny, creative and packed with personality, making it an easy recommendation for anyone who enjoys classic adventure games with a wonderfully unusual twist.

This is such a fun point and click game. It has really smart mechanics, quirky and lovable characters, great voice acting, and charming music. I also really liked the episodic story, weird humor, and helpful hint system. The best part is that the puzzles actually make sense. There is clear logic behind the item usage, so when you figure something out, it feels clever instead of frustrating. The ending did feel a little abrupt, and I was hoping for more of a grand finale, but it somehow fits the tone of the whole game- quirky, unexpected, and a bit chaotic in its own way. Still, it definitely left me wanting more episodes with Uncle Eel ; ). I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys quirky adventure games with logical puzzles and lots of personality.

A charming set of traditional adventure styled episodes. If you've ever enjoyed an adventure game you'll like this one. The game has a tutorial and five chapters. The tutorial and first two chapters are very short, with the later chapters (especially 4) being more substantial. The graphics and interactions in all episodes are highly polished. The puzzles are overall of reasonable difficulty - no real head scratchers, there were a few where I used the in-game hint system because I got stuck, but it was due to me overlooking things. There's no pixel hunting because the game has indicators for interactable areas. I enjoyed playing through the story as-is, but if you're a completionist it looks like there's a good selection of achievements to reward finding weird states.

Uncle Lee's Cookbook: Five Recipes for Disaster is a very fun game, with good puzzles, with genuinely funny writing. It always a pleasure to hear Sally Beaumont voice act in a game. I had no idea that she was in this game, and I recognised her voice right away. :-)
