• Cooking Diary is getting a holiday makeover
• New content, characters and a whole lot more are added
• Get ready to jump into some festive fun, starting now!

Mytona's culinary simulator Cooking Diary is set to join fellow release Seekers Notes in getting a special Christmas update. There's plenty set to debut, including a new character, tasks and more to complete. So, without further ado let's dig in and find out what's on offer in this Cooking Diary update!

To start with, the biggest addition is the new assistant Margaret Grey! Suitably enough, Margaret also comes with a host of new tasks as you'll help her save Christmas. And, like in Seekers Notes, there's an Advent Calendar that ensures a bevvy of presents and rewards each day you check in.

Up next there's the Food Truck outfits and the Bay of Treats to explore on your Gourmet's Odyssey. Dwayne also joins a guild, with plenty of challenges arriving alongside him, and Nymphadora is set to once more defend her rights to geocooking. So whether it's a story you're looking at or just pure content updates, there's plenty here to sink your teeth into (pun very much intended).

As with Seekers Notes, there's a lot here being added, some of which still eludes me. But I'm sure if you're a Cooking Diary fan there's a lot here that you've been waiting for. So if you fancy playing all of this out you can jump into Cooking Diary right now and try it out for yourself!

For the rest of us, I'm sure that Cooking Diary offers a credible alternative to some of the other cooking simulators out there on the market, of which there are a couple.
