A surprisingly sad journey into ethnic dilution and cultural identity. Playing out like a visual novel, the personable story is the attraction here as we uncover the highs and lows of an Indian family who have immigrated to Canada. How a child growing up in a foreign country feels apprehensive about displaying their ethnic background, only to soon realise that they should've embraced the culture their parents bestowed upon them all those years ago. It's actually really moving.

Player interaction comes from cooking and learning about South-Indian cuisine in between the narrative time jumps. While these little puzzles are presented with such authenticity, they are perhaps too basic and limited in the mechanical department. It's basically clicking ingredients in the right order. Now I'm not expecting 'Cooking Mama' level of chopping ingredients, stirring broths etc. but to really sell this as an interactive experience it just needed more involvement. Due to how short the story is - exacerbated by the fleeting time jumps which can diminish the core emotion - it just about gets away with it.

Delectably tender in the middle, but undercooked round the edges.
