There are some MAJOR glitches in this version of the game. Trying to deliver dishes to customers and no matter how many times you click the dish will not get delivered. The number of clicks needed to complete an action is way too many. Developers really need to rethink this gameplay. Maybe game upgrades like appliances cooking faster or characters moving faster or fewer steps to complete dishes would make the gameplay more satisfying. Sad that I used my credits to purchase this.
I've already beaten the game on the Easy level, now tackling Hard. There is absolutely no way to get 3 stars on Level 38, even when following the Strategy Guide. If anybody figures it out, let me know!
This second chapter is so much like the first - same graphics, same challenges, same gameplay, same music and sounds, same "facts" and storyline - that I almost wonder why they bothered to make it. Also, there are SO MANY BUGS in this game. I took a screenshot of one of the times I loaded a level and it was absolutely unplayable, so much was scrambled. The game crashes often. I usually play games multiple times on different levels. This game I played one time and then blocked out that I ever bought it. When Chapter 3 came out, I was like, "oh yeah, I did buy 2... did I play it?" and tried to play it a second time... then was reminded why I never played it again. Skip this one. I've just started playing Chapter 3. We'll see how it goes...
Very challenging, especially on Hard mode, however there are a lot of glitches. The game shuts down often with error messages, and sometimes in a level things won't run correctly (clicking on the cobbler shoes doesn't give increased speed). Hopefully there'll be a patch update soon.
For someone who has played all 7 previous versions, this was WAY. TOO. EASY. It needs the option to raise the level of difficulty for experienced players. I beat every level on the first try and the whole game within 3 hours. (Not even continuous play.)
