Frenzy to turn off the game

This is a very poor attempt at a time management game. There is only one thing to do - click on food as it moves in a circle.
The only thing I managed in this game was my yawning.

Sushi Snooze

I love sushi - I love these delivery type games.... I did not love Sushi Frenzy.

I downloaded the demo as soon as I saw it come up, but wish I hadn't bothered now. I could hardly call this game a frenzy - it's monotous, boring, and quite frankly, looks like it was thrown together in a few hours.

You don't even make the sushi - you just match the ingredients to the customer and then the same piece of sushi kind of floats off to indicate that you've fulfilled the order. Would have been more fun if you made it, with the different types there are the possibilities for this game would have been great. I do hope someone else picks up on the sushi idea and makes a great game!

I uninstalled the demo after about 8 levels - I just know that it was going to be just more of the same blandness and that it wasn't going to offer me anything more exiting.

If you like the sushi theme, then try out The Apprentice: Los Angeles - now a full game of the sushi bar there would get me playing!

The worst Reflexive has to offer? Not really but probably 2nd worst

I haven't played all games in Reflexive to give a fair comment on which is the worst game ever, but having played a fair amount of similar themes, most notably Diner Dash & all those games pretending to be a bartender, this Sushi Frenzy didn't leave me in a frenzy. It left me huffing and puffing with complete and utter disappointment that such a lame excuse for a game could be foun in this otherwise awesome game site. I was so happy to see a game based on a sushi restaurant since I like sushi. I was hoping some challenging gameplay and some sushi rolling as well as tempuras frying. Something different and yet playable. What I had was... well .. really bad.

The graphics were horrible, but I suppose the creators were trying to adopt a manga approach and failed. The sushi looked as tempting as a dead fish rotting under a hot sun for a whole year. The characters boring. The gameplay confusing. The tutorial, none. The tutorial in the game, clicked and nothing happened. Tried playing for 1 minute and nothing worked. In fact click on anything and nothing happened at all, with the character you play, that sushi chef standing there like a statute with customers fuming and leaving although you click and click and click away. i am sure zombies moved faster than this chef. In fact why aren't there any Zombie Frenzy? I am sure that would be so much more interesting than this dud.

Try something else. Try Diner Dash and its sequels. Let this game be a reminder to the developers and creators and designers and everybody involved in its conceptualisation, designing, packaging and ultimately promotion that frankly the very first process, conceptualising it was already all missing. It's not even a boring game. How can a game be boring if you don't even feel like playing beyond 1 minute? I deleted it after a minute.

Even if bundled as free, I'd rather not install it since it is a complete waste of space. Even Nanny Mania had more things to do, however repetetive it was. Miss!

It'd be good if it were any good...

This game has a minor variation on the Diner Dash premise: the ingredients for the sushi circle the customers, and you pick out the ones they need and give them to them. It'd be more fun if you made the sushi from there, like in The Apprentice: Los Angeles, but it's okay for what it is.

The problem with this game is that it is very buggy. The mouse pointer disappeared on me five levels in, it wouldn't save my game no matter how many times I selected "save" before quitting, sometimes ingredients are still attached to your cursor even after you've given them to the customer, necessitating throwing them away and losing points, and the sound and music off features only work maybe half of the time.

This game was clearly rushed out into the market, and is very sloppy as a result. The music is very low and maybe the same five seconds on repeat, the sound is pretty much the same sound for everything from clicking to play to handing the customers their ingredients, the story scrolls by far too slow, and the graphics are so-so, trying to emulate the manga style in the cut scenes. My advice: give this one a pass and grab The Apprentice: Los Angeles if you are really jonesing to serve sushi.

I quickly uninstalled it.

The graphics are really rough around the edges and don't even look like something a free game would have. That and the customers orders don't resemble any sort of sushi I've ever eaten. The gameplay could have been interesting but the presentation and overall look of the game didn't make me play it for long.
