Ovi Store enters the kitchen with Cooking Mama

The Nokia canteen is open for business

| May 27, 2009

Nokia's Ovi Store has only just opened its doors (with some problems, admittedly), but it seems Taito is keen to provide the catering for its new customers with the launch of the hit DS, iPhone and mobile chef's game, Cooking Mama.

The casual gaming phenomenon has you chopping, frying, boiling and preparing all kinds of meals across five different recipes and 19 mini-games.

As bizarre as the concept sounds, Cooking Mama has proven to be a runaway success on all platforms, and is a very significant choice of debut game for Taito (which is accompanied by Super Puzzle Bobble - another massive game from the Japanese developer).

Clearly Taito has high expectations for Nokia's mobile app store, so check out our guide to buying games on the Ovi Store and get yourself back in the kitchen.

Spanner Spencer

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
