At the time of concepting, no other studio had produced a two-team game on iOS. The FWA
  • While Overcooked 2 can be played solo, the core experience is that of chaotic cooperation between partners and friends. You will laugh and yell at each other in equal measure as the team attempts to cook and send out a variety of dishes while combating oddball hazards and individual incompetence. Gideon's gaming

Example sentence(s):
Explanation:
It is important to note that in the examples I have provided, the term is referred to as "chaotic cooperation game", with the exception of Origin, in which the term "local (=paikallinen)" has been added, but that is irrelevant in this context. However, if you simply drop the "peli (=game)" word out of the examples, you will have a direct word-for-word translation of the source text - and in this context it works just fine, because it functions as a self-explanatory term and it communicates the meaning of the source text.
