Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Also, while it didn't affect our enjoyment of the game, an online co-op option would be nice for people who don't have someone that they can play with locally.
39 of 153 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
While this game is local multiplayer only, I hope it follows the Overcooked route of meeting enough success to deliver a sequel with online multiplayer.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
It would also be nice if there was a volume slider for dialogue, because the cartoony babbling can get a bit old quite quickly.
