Diner Dash: Hometown Hero

Diner-Dash game. Meet Flo again, as she is on vacations in her hometown, which fell into decay. Our heroine decides to restore her favourite places of childhood and heeds your help. Your task is to keep customers happy by serving them as quickly as possible thus earning points. The happier customers are the more tips you get. If the customers' level of happiness drops to zero they'll leave your restaurant and you'll be fined. Every day you are to meet or exceed the daily goal to proceed to the next day. Be ready to execute such duties as to take orders and deliver them to the ticket station, bring food to corresponding tables, collect tips, pick up dirty dishes and drop them into the dish bin. There are several ways how to earn bonus points: you should match customers with colour of their seats, you'd better not to place noisy customers near quiet ones and you should try to perform one task several times ( pick up two orders at ones, etc ). As I said the number of tips depends on the customers' level of happiness and you can make customers happier by bring them drinks, desserts, snacks, highchairs for children, put flowers on tables, make pictures of customers, mop floor, and chat with customers, which are in line. There are two game modes: Story and Endless Shift. Story Mode offers you to help Flo restore the city working at five restaurants, upgrade them, train new waiters and earn new glamorous clothes for the main character. As for Endless Shift Mode, it challenges you to play as long as you can, serving customers with no stop.

   Diner Dash: Hometown Hero is the fascinating new sequel of the original gamethat features bright detailed graphics, diverse sound effects and cheerful instrumental music. Graphics is highly polished; customers, restaurants, upgrades and backgrounds look amusing. You surely like variety of customers that includes cellphone addicts, the Hungry Man, the Celebrity and more. Before new day you are offered to install new upgrade, some decoration or new equipment such as new counter, tables, floor, drink machine, oven, running shoes for Flo, etc. Another point that is worth mentioning is Flo's Closet; it is special room, where you may dress up Flo, selecting from available clothes. But the really original twists are training new waiters and reservation of tables. In every restaurant you need to train a new waiter; first of all you choose a waiter from three given ones and then there is some kind of competition between you for better score. As for reservation of tables, it goes like that: you have timer above some table that shows time before the customers come, so you have to manage everything in such a way that the table must be free at that moment. All in all, Diner Dash: Hometown Hero is one of the best games of this genre due to the highly polished and amusing design, variety of restaurants and customers, and several original twists, namely Flo's closet, training new waiters, and reservation of tables.
