Fashion Fits
Francie just got a new job at the Uber-Mart clothing store. The only problem is she's the only employee! Help Francie run a fast paced clothing store by stocking tables, cleaning fitting rooms, providing customer service, and more! It's up to you to set the fashion trends by purchasing new clothing. And don't worry about your mean boss! Complete the first year at Uber-Mart and then help Francie open up her own line of clothing stores from a sunny beach boutique to a posh department store!
When you're someone that has finished playing Diner Dash and similar games, and have run out of these click and serve games to play, you become a beggar who can't choose. :p
It would have been nice if a hiring upgrade was offered. I could've used an assistant to clean up the fitting room, or to man the customer service desk, or even a cashier so you don't have to do everything by yourself. Since when do you have only one person working in a retail clothing store all by herself anyway? You have at least a few people working at the same time. Also, the customers get impatient waaaaay to quickly. It was also dissapointing that you could not replay a level that you did not score an "expert" on. Lastly, I wish there was more space for the clothes on tables instead of 2 or 3 items per table.
Oh, it was also really weird how the customers would get impatient from the minute they walked in the door regardless of whether you served them or not. For example, a customer would go in the fitting room with only a little bit of "heart" (patience level) remaining, and when they came out of the fitting room, they would explode in anger and disappear (i.e. leave the store), meaning that while they are trying on clothes ("being served"), their patience level would still drop!! It was quite annoying for me when they would come out of the fitting room and explode in a fit and "disappear" or "leave the store" even when they were served. Sheesh! There's just no pleasing some people. ;)
On the positive end, it was nice that there was a wide variety of customers, each different with their own "personalities", needs, likes and dislikes. The trendy girls were the most annoying 'cause they required customer desk service and fitting room service. No wait... maybe the models were the most annoying 'cause they'd require fitting room service three times per time they went in.
This game could've been a smashing success if some elements were added, some removed, and some changed.

It's OK, but it doesn't compare to other dash and serve games
I LOVE DASH 'N SERVE GAMES!!! But I found this one to be waaay too hard. I managed to make it about half way through the third building and then everything started blowing up in my face. I love the sound bites that come with the game. When the surfer guy gets impatient he says, "Hey Dude". When the characters get mad because you aren't serving them fast enough, they vanish in an angry cloud of smoke. One of the fun things about dash and serve games is the upgrades you can buy as you succeed, but with this game, the upgrades don't really help you. It is literally quite impossible to serve the customers needs without some sort of aide to the main character in the game. I get so mad that I have to restart the level all over again, that I just exit the game. But, you'll find yourself coming back to it again and again thinking, "Maybe I'll do it this time". Please, if anyone has a walkthrough or a tip that helped them get through the game, kindly post it somewhere!

Fashion Fits...
Usually I like games that are like this one - But this one just wore me ragged and put me in a very nasty mood very quickly. Not sure why. Something about it just urked me. Perhaps it was the rude comments the customers make while picking up the same outfits over and over and leaving them in the changing room or the dilly wad that has his finger up his nose while demanding I bring him a shirt or pants while a line full of people are standing at customer service saying "excuse me.." LOL
Whatever it was, booo! On a score of 1 to 10 I would rate this game a big fat ZERO!
