Chef

Chef is a Wide Screen Game & Watch game released in 1981. The model code for this game is FP-24.

Gameplay: Players take control of a chef who has to flip the food before they fall on the ground. A cat will sometimes reach out and grab the first food and hold it with a fork, then let it go. If the player fails to flip the food in time, a mouse will steal the food that fell to the floor, and the player will get a miss. Three misses is game over as usual. Additionally, misses are cleared every 200 and 500 points. In Game A, there are 3 foods to flip, but in Game B, there are 4 foods to flip. A kettle boils when the alarm goes off.

Trivia: Chef is also playable in Game & Watch Gallery 2, Game & Watch Gallery 4, and DSIware. Mr. Game & Watch's standard special has him fling food at his opponents with a frying pan, the same way the Chef flips food in this game. Additionally, Flat Zone 2 and Flat Zone X from Super Smash Bros have a Chef scene. The alarm tone is also used in the Wide Screen version of Mickey Mouse and egg. In Russia, Elektronika released a clone of this game called Merry Cook.
