Cook Off

"Fulfill Customer Orders, get Tips and Coupons, use Tips and Coupons to upgrade your Kitchen to make cooking easier"

## Description

While you explore the island, every 5 energy spent for clearing each resource, you get 1 Ingredient. You can also get other Ingredients by completing Board Order, 10 of them, or completing an entire Helicopter Order, 100 of them, in the home island. After gaining Ingredients, you can start cooking and after fulfilling all the requests, you get Tips (for the competition and unlocking upgrades) and Coupons (to buy upgrades for the kitchen).

This minigame usually is active for 6 to 7 days and you compete with other players and clubs. You enter the ranking after you complete the first cook and then you compete with a group of 15 players. You can also see the global ranking, with all the players of the world, and the ranking of your club in the global ranking for clubs, if you are a member of one.

The rewards are usually gems, gold, energy, fertilizers, watering can, lightning tickets, enhancements and decorations, and depend on how many Tips you gained while playing. At the end of the minigame you can also gain extra rewards depending on the ranking in your group of players and on the club ranking.

## Tips and Tricks

* Try to prepare in advance steak, salad and ice cream, so you can deliver them immediately
	+ Mind that the side dishes and seasoning can be more than one on the same plate, so the minigame fill the plates with all the possible side dishes by default
	+ Ice creams can only have one flavor, so you can prepare one of each in advance (leave an ice cream empty in case of need)
* Begin fulfilling the orders even if you can't give away all the products: the happiness of the customers will increase
	+ Be careful when trying to fulfill a steak order: some have a side dish and it can be different, so be careful while preparing in advance
* Try to fulfill orders as fast as you can, so at the end you will receive more Tips and Coupons as the customers will have a better mood
