Overcooked is pretty much the only game that could possibly put me in Gordon Ramsey's mindset - screaming "Are you can idiot sandwich?!" at my housemate who can barely work a controller - and, now, I have another game to sabotage all my relationships with, except this time you're running a rat-operated kitchen. Yes, it's kinda like Overcooked meets Ratatouille.

Restaurats hit Steam earlier this month and has already amassed an impressive 'Very Positive' rating based on almost 500 user reviews, a whopping 90% of which give it a thumbs up. In fairness, the appeal is easy to see. You and some friends take control of rodents looking to cook and literally throw food at all manner of fantasy creatures, orcs and vampires included, in a medieval restaurant.
