Solid minigame with sluggish controls
In this game you are playing a waiter serving food. Key is to remember what the customers wanted and serve it in time. While you advance in the well-designed levels the game introduces some more mechanics.
There is basically only one action button and when you are close to something, you can trigger the action. It takes a moment to perform. The action can be to pet the dog or to serve a meal or to pick up cash.
Some mechanics are not really clear right away, e.g. that customers also get mad if they cannot pay in time. Or what effect it has when they sleep. But I have no problem with figuring that out.
However I have a problem with the controls. I guess this is a smartphone port. You control the waiter with the mouse by pointing and clicking where it should go. There is pathfinding involved, so you automatically avoid obstacles. The problem is, this control stops to work if you are too far away from your character by pathfinding (so basically the pathfinding does only x meters, and if it cannot reach the target, your character stops). Additionally if you manage to get the cursor somewhere the character cannot go, then the cursor disappears and you really dont know where your mouse is. This is especially the case in the last level. It is also difficult to stop your character in the right place, e.g. close to the (moving) dog. Also it is rather slow to drag&drop the food on your plate. All that while time is ticking against you.
As the levels are not too difficult, you can deal with it. After you play through all levels, you activate Hell Mode, which makes all levels much more difficult. As a major part of the difficulty is fighting the controls I didn't have the motivation to give it more than a few tries. Playing through a level in Robot Mode was lacking a marker for accomplishment as well.
Considering the price I guess it's a fair deal (especially on discount) and it's a good opportunity to give those rusty memory cells some training.
