Lost Recipes isn't a very long game, but it has undeniable charm throughout its runtime. Clearly geared more toward VR novices, it provides good-looking interactive environments and some interesting recipes to cook, but it doesn't offer a lot of content or challenge to be captivating beyond the first playthrough.

Lost Recipes is a great cooking simulator, a nifty VR title and a highly-creative and fun educational game all wrapped up in a one-of-a-kind package. Though ironically, it could have benefited a lot more if it has found even more recipes to work with, as the end result is a rather tasty bit of fusion cuisine that’s lacking meat where it counts. Still, for those who just want a quick nibble of something fresh in order to satisfy their inner foodie or history buff, this is something worth checking out, and a good addition to any Quest owner’s library.

Lost Recipes showcases one of the biggest strengths offered by virtual reality. Were this a console game, I would have probably hated it. It was the added novelty of doing my own dishes with decent motion controls, all while learning a bit about ancient history, that made this game way more entertaining than I could have ever imagined.

Lost Recipes is one of VR's most wholesome games, bogged down by technical bugs but enriched by a historic blast to culinary past and a stress-free cooking sim.
