Diner Dash - DS

There is a 3DS version out now and Flo takes a risk by taking on a run-down diner and make it work better and serve better food. The customers have to be served fast so they can move out fast as well. The cook has to make sure there is just enough food to keep the diners happy. They can complain a lot if their service is not on time.

At the start the pace is slow especially if there are not a lot of food served, but once the pace increases, the food better and serves more people, there are more diners coming in. there is a need now to make improvements on the premises to make sure that all who come in will have a place to sit and dine.

You also have to make sure that the food cooking does not go bad either so you need to pace yourself and learn to time how long before the food has to be transferred from the stove and onto the buffet table. As more and more come in, you need to move faster as well. If you need to hire more servers, just do it or they cuss you out.

Although the game is not really all that challenging somehow it comes out as very challenging. Some may say that the whole thing can become repetitive but it is not. You really need to make sure that you time your cooking right, if the food cooking takes too long and there is no longer a space to cook a fast order you lose your diners. So you have to Dash for It!

The only thing I will complain about is the price, it is just too much especially as you can play the shorter and simpler version for free on the social networks. But otherwise, I really have no complaints, I like the game and I like to plan out the menus as well, so I guess that really helps keep my interest up.

Presentation wise, the simple handheld is easy to use and the controls easy to handle. Don't expect much from the graphics, they are very simple and I like the feel of it. The sound, well it can be annoying because it is just the same thing playing over and over again and sometimes I can hear my mind playing out the tune when I am in the shower annoying but funny. Lasting appeal, oh definitely, I cant get enough of it and it is really curious for this is so simple. And maybe that is really the key to its success; it is so simple that it is hard to put down for it is just plain fun.
