Cooking Mama (stylized as cookıng mama) is a video game series and media franchise owned by Cooking Mama Limited. The series is a cookery simulation-styled minigame compilation of many video games and adventures for Nintendo gaming platforms. Generally, the gameplay revolves around performing different kitchen tasks, through the instructions of "Mama", to cook various meals. The series so far consists of five main games on Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS, two spin-offs on Wii and Nintendo DS each, as well as a spin off on 3DS that is also a spin-off to the Gardening Mama series. The original Cooking Mama video game was also ported to iOS, iPadOS and Android as Cooking Mama: Let's Cook!. A sixth main series game, Cooking Mama: Cookstar, was released for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 in 2021.
