I like the game, it's cute and it works. Another one of those that's a cross between a builder and a collection type of game. There were a couple of things I didn't like, though. First off, was the levels. They all sort of blended together after a while. The same things over and over, and the characters weren't cute enough to make it at least interesting (ala the New Yankee series). I also hated how much clicking you had to do. I liked that it sped up tasks, but clicking repeatedly, task after task after task, got really tiring (and boring) after a while.
Overall an okay game if you're just bored with nothing else to do.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is a LOT like the Lauraville games. Even the mini games in between levels are the same kind. It's just different characters and graphics. While the graphics are cute and the gameplay works well, each level is the same thing over and over. It gets repetitious and incredibly boring.
I don't recommend this game.

These types of resource gathering games are my favorite. The graphics are great, the storyline is cute. But quite a lot of these levels are too hard. You don't realize until after you do it that by upgrading that one resource building, you just used all of another resource and have none for something else. And if you don't upgrade the buildings, then you're sitting here just waiting and waiting while you gather the needed resources for something, which takes forever. I play these games to relax, but having to play a level four and five times isn't relaxing. It's stressful. Wouldn't recommend unless you like to be frustrated.
I don't recommend this game.

I love the idea of this game, but I prefer to play games in relaxed mode, and the relaxed mode isn't really relaxed. The customers still lose patience quickly. Also, having to drag the food to the plates takes up a lot of time. It would be better if you simply clicked the food and it automatically went to the plate. I also think it would be better if relaxed mode meant the customers didn't lose patience.
I don't recommend this game.

I loved the first one of these. Great game. This one...isn't the same and isn't as fun. The biggest, most annoying things, for me...once you pick something up, if you make a mistake, you can't put it back like you can in the first game. Also, the music players...you couldn't hear them in the first one, which I liked. Now, the noise is TOO LOUD. It's overwhelming, to the point that sometimes I can't hear the phone ringing. You also can't use them as often as you could in the first game. Their "break" times take too long and customers end up leaving, so they're basically useless. Not as fun as the first one.
I don't recommend this game.

This isn't a bad game. It's a good time waster and not too difficult as to be frustrating. But it's exactly like Laruaville and Spellarium and they all have the exact same gameplay. Exactly the same. They're all just copies of each other with different stories and graphics inserted. Which makes it boring after a while. I've played about 6 levels of this so far and I'm bored already. If you've never played this before, then it's a nice different take on a Match 3, but after what, like 7 Laruaville's and 3 Spellariums...I'm bored with it.
I don't recommend this game.

I love these games. They're challenging, fun, and it's a little more than just your regular match 3. This particular one, I love the colors of the gems in the game. Very beautiful.
I recommend this game!

It gets boring and repetitive really quickly. It's the same thing over and over. Tasks take forever to do in between sending people to their "relaxation" stations. They get mad quickly whenever someone is taking a break. Just a lot of juggling, not much fun and not enough time to actually complete all the silly tasks in the time given. By the time I got to the end of the first episode I'm bored and moving on.
I don't recommend this game.

I love this series. It's fun and just challenging enough. There are some levels that got frustrating when you have to play them several times in order to figure out which order to do things. But I love the theme and the characters are always hilarious. Such a fun and different spin on this type of game.
I recommend this game!
