Community Insight:
But we like this game . We like playing it all the time we just dont understand we play adds and it still not going through we cant upgrade the part of the items it keep saying u need to to skip add this it wont let us it need fix . :(.
We been pls this game about two months now we love it but theres a problem after we watch an ad it makes the game screen smaller so we have to close the game and go back into it its annoying plus theres to many ads please if it we dont wanna delete it Im on our third restaurant.
We like this game. It is fun and challenging. But the only way to win some levels is to use diamonds which means spending real money. We are sick of spending money on this cash guzzler.
This game is fun until it becomes a total cash grab during the first restaurant and even worse in the second! You cant beat some levels without spending money! Its insanity. Some games Im willing to pay for if they arent hugely unfair, but this one definitely is. Trust us, dont play it. Dont even DL it. Not worth it. Theres so many games like this that are fair/dont make you pay for each level.
We really cant complain about this game. The cat is a little annoying but other than that, it honestly couldnt be made any better.
Gems are too hard to earn in order for some of the upgrades to be done, this, causing you to get stuck on the same level over and over, unless you want to spend your money to buy some. Which Im not doing.
This game used to be much more fun, prior to the last update. Its always been pretty greedy with the rubies needed for EVERYTHING, and we found it impossible to play without spending money to purchase them, since you can only earn a couple a day, and it would take exactly forever to level up. We do not mind spending money on a game we enjoy, within reason. We dont think you should have to spend money daily though. But since the last update, not only have the graphics been very slow and glitchy (which is not what you want on timed challenges) but they have gotten even more greedy. On the old version, if you sat through 9 (long) ads, you could earn 2 rubies, and five minutes of a booster that was enough to help you play one, maybe two levels if it wasnt being to glitchy and lagging. But now you have to sit through 15 videos to get two rubies (which is enough to do exactly nothing) and the same five minute booster. They will give you coins pretty freely, but theyre worth nothing without the rubies. Not worth playing when there are much better alternatives, and most definitely not worth spending the amount of money it would take now.
The game will have you go through almost 30 levels with random tutorials. You can only check items up to four times. The speed of the game does not match the level of difficulty in each game. Youre not able to get enough upgrades in the beginning to even add upgrades to beat the levels.
We have a iPhone 7 Plus and this game crashes all the time. Anyone else having this issue.
We cannot believe what they will show in a 4+ rated game. An ad for 18+ about lust and removing clothes. We are so disgusted that they show this in a childrens game for childrens eyes.
We played the game yesterday try to play it today and its not playing.
We rarely write reviews but this is game is so fun! If you like time management games youll love this one! Our favs are GH and Delicious also Hotel Frenzy and Cooking Diary This game has fun graphics and combines all the best features of our favs (like a fun way to restore patience to your customers) Its challenging without being so hard that you need boosters on every other level we dont mind spending money for hard levels one from a while but Im going to come impossible to complete without multiple boosters on every level we bought the starter pack but so far so good.
Enjoyed the game at first. We bought a gem package and upgraded just about everything. The levels cannot be beat. The new upgraded made it even more difficult. What a waste, on what could have been a great game.
Couple things made us delete the app 1. Why there are not the same number of tables on each side? That would help win the level 2. The cleaning bot is so super slow and in the way we can clean the table faster ourselves. How about a helper at the bar or an auto bar helper? Ill pass.
Its hard to pass a level without actually buying boosters. There's no daily reward like giving free gems since thats what you need to be able to upgrade and pass the hard levels. Im deleting the game.
We were pleasantly surprised after playing this game. We have played time management games for years and it has been refreshing to play a game where we dont feel like we need to pay to make progress. We will make an occasional purchase to help support the developers if we are continuing to play regularly, but we have almost made it through the third restaurant without having to spend any money. We love that there is a way to improve the customers mood (the cat) in each level and we dont have to use a booster. We think the difficulty levels are great and we look forward to playing levels in all the restaurants.
To advance past a hard level you will have to buy boosters…when you beat a level the reward of gems is not enough we will be deleting soon.
