Played HofH4 and played this on the back of it.
HofH4 is a great game, this is terrrible in comparison. I hated the minigames, which you couldn't skip. I want a M3 game, not one that has annoying HOG in the middle of it.
Sadly, this was a huge disappointed after HoH4.

I'm not usually a fan of M3 games, so they have to be different and really good for me to enjoy them.
This game has plenty of levels, and then plenty of bonus levels. It's not the easiest M3 game, and you have to have a stratergy as the game moves on.
The only irritating thing is the mini games, and you can skip them after a short while.
After playing this, I went to play HofH3, and was woefully disappointed.

Love this game. As the title suggests, I'm not a fan of M3 games normally, but this one is different, and enjoyable.
For me, I don't like the constant swapping of symbols/fruits/jewels in usual M3 games, as they all seem to be the same style, but this is different. You make chains, and let the gold fluid flow through them, until you get to the end goal. The concept is simple, but well executed. It's not about getting so many jewels before the end, it's about making the journey.
The game is broken up by a short game after each section with a spot the difference or hidden object puzzle, and although I'm not keen on either styles, as it's a short level, it's fine.

The graphics are very nice and colourful, without being OTT. I always turn the music off, but the sound FX are pretty without being sickly sweet. I also always click-through the story, as I have no interest.
The only criticism I have is that I'd like more levels.
This is a game for people who don't usually like Match 3 games, as it's different.
I'm now off to play the original 4 elements.
I recommend this game!

I do enjoy these type of TM games. It's not just a click-fest, and you have to think what to build, upgrade, collect or repair first in order to beat the level/get gold.
The graphics are fine for me, the sounds are fine. (Although I always turn the music off). The game is not ridiculously hard or ridiculously easy, so I don't get gold on most levels, as it's progressed. It doesn't get annoying, nor have any annoying characters, although the caveman is pointless. An enjoyable, solid game.
The only negatives, is that I'd like to "stack" tasks, instead of waiting until the little men get back to their house. Otherwise, a thoroughly enjoyable game, which is seriously lacking these days.
I recommend this game!

Thought I'd give it a go, as I always do with the TM games.
(Due to the lack of decent ones, BF please note for the gizillioth time I've mentioned it).

This started off okay, and I like the format, but this could vastly be improved.
Positives:
I like the graphics.
Good general format.
I like having to buy the vegetables.

I like having to buy the vegetables.
Negatives:
The main character walks far too slow (this might be upgradable later, I don't know).
The chef cooks far too slow, and only cooks one dish at a time, even if you take both dishes at once, and it's the same dish!
The toddler is SO annoying when she throws a tantrum if you don't bring her food or lolly literally immediately.
If you seat four people, and go literally as fast at the game allows, the 3rd and 4th customers will start to bang the table. NO!
There isn't physically enough tables, and you can have 4 people waiting, getting annoyed, even if you go as fast at the game physically allows.
The customers are seriously inpatient.

It's a real shame, as this game has real potential, but I am not buying. I can't stand a game that gets annoying so quickly. With a few basic tweaks or upgrades, this could be so much better;
eg:
Upgradeable speed on the main character.
More tables or chairs.
Faster chef who cooks more than one dish at a time, if they are delivered together.
No annoying toddler.
Characters not getting annoyed within seconds.

I don't expect an easy game, but I don't expect a game that gets annoying after only a few levels.
No buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Erm...what is the object of the game? What do you do? You seem to do a bit of dragging of troops, but then what? What does the other Knight do from the other tower? How do you upgrade? Are you the attacker or the defender?
There is some slight explanation about clicking and dragging, but then what? ZERO.
There is no explanation of anything of what your goal is or what you're supposed to do. What is happening? Who am I playing? Who is the other Knight? Where are the weapons? Am I supposed to fire on something? A number just gets lower, but then what? Do I just click and drag again? Is that it? Who is winning?

The graphics ark back to the early 90s, they're so poor. The sound effects are flat.
This game is as clear as a muddy lake in a fog. And about as much fun as a 3-hour Justine Bierber concert, listening to him scratching his nails down a blackboard.
I don't recommend this game.

I think the Delicious series are okay, but they do tend to be the same thing over and over.
The colours and visuals are always good, and it is a fun game to play if you like TM games.
I have zero interest in the storyline, as it's always about her overly-pampered brat or the nasty relative.
I will not buy the CE, as I am not paying double for a few extra levels, when I know BF will bring out the "normal" version soon enough.
I did enjoy my free demo hour, but will not buy.

I found this game very bizarre.
The tutorial went on for ages, "click this, click that, get this, get that." It didn't really seem helpful.
Then it went on about "trends" in cars, but I had no idea how to make these trends.
It just seemed to me that you did the same thing over and over and over and over.
Put the car in the service garage, then wash it. Same thing for every car.
There didn't seem to be levels, but just on-going servicing and washing cars.
The graphics were quite poor as well.

The format is good, and I like the characters. The graphics and sound effects are good as well.
However, this turned into a click-fest far too quickly. The "goods" renew quickly, but you need LOADS to build/finish the level, so you are constantly clicking back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, to get enough food/wood/whatever to build whatever you need.
I have played the demo, but am unlikely to buy, simply because of the constantly click-factor. Shame, as it could have been better.

Enjoyable TM game. Fun, not just a click-fest. The characters are quite funny, and the it's challenging enough. The graphics are good and the sound effects are amusing.
The levels can last a while, so prepare yourself. Plus, I found this fun and addictive.
Yes, it's similar to a lot of TM games, but it's better than average, as the characters are enjoyable. Although I do wish you could upgrade to a bigger tent to more than two people.
