Order Up!
On a whim I was checking out the new releases, and came upon Burger Rush, the tale of Heidi an aspiring chef with a love of a single cuisine-hamburgers. At first, I downloaded the trial, and as my hour went past, I knew I just had to have this game because it held my interest as the levels played out.
It isn't as simple as one would think, there is more strategy involved then any normal match 3+ games. It takes you a few times playing it to decide what to aim for with your tokens-and you keep playing it to see how well you can improve your game.
My suggestions for sucessful sales are first buy a few of the more expensive burger recipes from the Burger Shop, then get yourself lots of treats, and then to upgrade your machines for making your combo bonus. Then again-I'm still playing this game and tinkering with the details. And for me to play something I beat over and over again-that spells real enjoyment!
Another thing I really liked about this game-it takes elements of other beloved games and throws them in the mix..Diner Dash, Digby's Donuts, Ocean Express and throws them into the mixture.
I would love to see another one of these games released-I would definetly buy it! And on that note, it's time to cook! Good luck with your game play. |

What A Smooth(ie?) Game!
Cathy's Caribbean Club starts out pretty easy-but is a more challenging game when you get into the later levels, and when you can not upgrade anything else for speed improvement it gets even tougher. It has its points where it does seem that it goes too smoothly for the player, but it does have some rough spots too where you have to be on your toes (I've been stuck on one of the Hollywood hotel levels for 2 days now).
It's quite similar to Betty's Beer Bar where you have to keep the customers from getting to impatient and serve them their requested drinks (which to me is a great deal more fun then just giving beers over and over again). It gives you the chance to upgrade decorations to improve the patience level of the patrons, hire help, and employ the use of a specially trained parrot to fetch empty glasses-leaving Cathy free to serve the drinks to the waiting patrons.
Strong points of this game are the graphics-they are quite colorful and detailed, smooth game play, and it does take some level of thought and planning to find the pattern to make and keep your customers happy in the later levels.
Weak points for me in game play are the sounds the customers make, and that there are not enough "upgrades" to buy-simply because I have a ton of stars that I can't use. If that's all I can find about a game that I don't like too well-then the game is overall excellent.
If you are looking for a more demanding game-this probably isn't the one you are looking for. It isn't like the Diner Dash games with the exception of the upgrades. It is however an enjoyable, relaxing game so if that's your cup of tea (glass of smoothie) then this game is definetly worth checking out.
You'll have to excuse me now-I have a frilly umbrella drink and a cabana on the beach waiting for me-it's 5 oclock somewhere! |
