Overcooked - best multiplayer (family) game I’ve played in a while

What are the boards thoughts on this game? Played it this weekend with three others and we couldn’t stop laughing.
Basically the premise is you are all four in a busy kitchen preparing meals for customers and have to cooperate to become efficient at preparing, cooking and serving the food. Most fun I’ve had on a local Co op game in a while. When the food started burning and someone was running around with the fire extinguisher I was laughing out loud. The kitchen layouts change with each level and eventually feature hazards and obstacles (i.e. when mice start coming in and trying steal ingredients you have to kick the shite out of them). Fun arse game.

My brother, sister, girlfriend, and I have almost three starred the whole game. It is a blast. Way fun and easy to pick up on.

Sounds fun, I see it's available for basically every console. Is it best on switch?

I played it on switch and it was great but really it’s pretty straightforward and should translate well to any console

We played it one night and we were lucky to still be friends by the time we got done. 
It wasn't that bad, but voices were raised and some all-in-good-fun insults were hurled at various participants.

Another fun thing I realized is that girls like playing this game too. Played with my fiancé and my friends wife and it was easy for them to learn the controls and gameplay.

I'm glad to hear this. I haven't really touched my switch outside of BotW and it's been a while. Going to get this game to play with the wife. She likes simple family games like that (Mario party, etc). Going to give it a shot.

Could a 5 year old pick it up enough to make it enjoyable with two 30+? I mean he can beat mario odysy.
2 joycons + tablet or do I need more cons?

I think they could, it’s a blast! It’s one controller per person, one of the little ones on switch

We downloaded this last night, we had a blast. It isn't a "hard" game, but if you get things mixed up it's going to be a challenge.
We had some laughs and aggravation/frustration. It was fun. I got a lot of "You aren't listening to me!" from the wife a good bit.
It was really fun working with her after each round strategizing on how we could do better and stuff. Best $20 I've spent on a game in some time.
