PlayStation 2 Curry House Simulator Rated

Thanks to NTSC-UK for its review of PlayStation 2 sim Curry House CoCo Ichibanya, explained as "essentially a simulator of how to work in a curry house." The Japanese-only title, in a similar vein to the previously mentioned Yoshinoya Beef Bowl videogame, makes a game of meal construction: "An order for a person can consist of as little as rice and curry, or can be as complex as rice, curry, chilli sauce, topping and a side order. Each component of the meal requires a certain task to be completed." The reviewer enjoys the title, but notes that there may be "not quite enough to keep you playing", quipping: "In real life, if you get bored you can play 'Which customer will notice the fingernail in their meal', but this virtual simulation obviously doesn't let you do it."

    Note that this is a vanity game, made by CocoIchiban, and (as far as I've seen), only for sale at CocoIchibanya.
