Our take on Don't cut your hand
The bounce point is the 30-second survival challenge. Beginners who cannot manage the two-button setup while protecting the chef’s left hand will meet the game’s main obstacle almost immediately, before the character unlocks or multiplayer options become relevant.
What is Don't cut your hand?
Play as a chef working in a ridiculous restaurant, cutting food one item at a time while avoiding the left hand.
The arcade-style game uses two buttons and is described as difficult for beginners to survive for 30 seconds. Two characters are available to choose from, with 13 additional characters that can be unlocked. Local cooperative play supports two players, while online multiplayer allows play against a random opponent from the Internet. Workshop support lets players obtain modifications or create their own modifications for custom chefs. The vendor also mentions a UFO appearing on the table and says that players will learn why they hate berries. The central task remains careful food cutting without injuring the chef’s left hand.
