Cooking Mama 6: Delicious Dishes

Cooking Mama 6: Delicious Dishes, released in Japan as Cooking Mama 6 and in Europe and Australia as Cooking Mama: Delicious Dishes, is the sequel to the Nintendo 3DS video game Cooking Mama 5: Bon Appétit!. It contains all the different recipes from previous installments.

Gameplay
The gameplay is similar to Cooking Mama: Cook Off, where dishes are prepared by completing a series of short minigames. Each minigame represents a step in the meal preparation process, with a complete dish requiring anywhere from two to more than a dozen such steps. Players use the Wii Remote to mimic real-life cooking movements such as rolling, slicing, chopping, and stirring. For example, during a minigame involving grinding up raw beef, the player might be instructed to move the Wii Remote in a circular motion as if grasping the handle of a meat grinder. Both the Wii Remote's motion sensing and positional/pointing capabilities may be utilized, depending on the minigame.

Let's Cook!
The main game mode where players cook dishes. Players initially start with just a few simple recipes to choose from, with additional recipes unlocked as the earlier ones are mastered. Each recipe requires players to play through a short, timed minigame for each ingredient or group of ingredients. For example, to make a sandwich, the player would first be required to chop a cucumber into slices before the time limit elapses.

Successfully completing a recipe in Let's Cook unlocks the recipe in the Cooking Dojo.

Cooking Dojo
This main game mode provides players with a greater challenge by allowing them to replay completed recipes with stricter time limits. In this mode players are able to earn Bronze, Silver, or Gold medals based on their time to completion and mistakes made. Too many mistakes will result in a failed dish although you are given the option to replay each stage whether or not you have failed. All recipes are available for this mode. Each recipe consists of at most 6 steps, each of which can be done over as many times as the player desires before moving on to the next step.

Setting
The game takes place primarily in the kitchen of Mama's restaurant. Throughout the game, the player will visit different locations in the restaurant, including the dining room, the kitchen, and the garden.
