''Delicious'' (video game series)

Delicious is a series of time management casual games that is developed by Zylom Studios and later on by Gamehouse Studios. From the 7th game onwards, the games are developed by Gamehouse Studios and Blue Giraffe.[1]

The games tell the story of Emily, a waitress who aspires to one day run her own restaurant, and who works in several other restaurants in order to earn the money to eventually make her dream come true.[2]

After releasing the first 3 games of the series, Zylom decided to "renew" the series by adding some factors to it to make Emily's world more memorable and natural. As a result of this, from the fourth game onwards, the series received high appreciation and reviews from casual game critics and gamers, such as Gamezebo, who gave the seventh game, Emily's True Love, a maximum 5/5 star overall review.

History

The idea for the series of casual games was thought of in 2005. Each individual game in the series was designed by the following people:

  • The first game, the special Winter Edition game
  • The second game: Jakko van Hunen;
  • The third game, Emily's Tea Garden: Jakko van Hunen and Sebastiaan van Waardenberg;
  • The fourth game, Emily's Taste of Fame
  • The fifth game, Emily's Holiday Season
  • The sixth game, Emily's Childhood Memories: Sebastiaan van Waardenberg;
  • The seventh game, Emily's True Love: Tj'íèn Twijnstra
  • The eighth game, Emily's Wonder Wedding: Tj'íèn Twijnstra People

Delicious and its The Winter Edition

The series was publicly released on September 21, 2006. Originally, players were challenged to successfully run eight restaurants that went for five days each. The first series game, however, did not have much of a storyline, and instead focused on the gameplay.

In November of the same year, a special edition of the series was released: The Winter Edition. The Winter Edition was similar to the first game, but with a winter/Christmas theme and no achievement trophies. The game was originally rated 3.5/5 stars by Gamezebo.

In 2007, the series was nominated for the 2006 Best Casual Game of the Year award.

Delicious 2

On June 29, 2007, the second game in the series was released with a number of new features compared to the first game, such as options for the player to decorate the restaurant however they want, to put items on their plate ahead of time rather than only directly at the time that the items were ordered by a customer, and the inclusion of trophies along with a storyline with cutscenes. The game also contained five 10-day restaurants to play through, instead of the eight 5-day ones available in the first game of the series.

The main storyline of the game is as follows: Emily is asked by her Uncle Antonio to help him in his restaurants when his son Marcello runs off and leaves him to run the restaurants by himself.

Like the first game in the series, this game was rated 3.5/5 stars by Gamezebo.

Emily's Tea Garden

On September 24, 2008, the third game in the series, Emily's Tea Garden, was released. The game was similar to the second game, its only changes being a greater variety of dishes and reservations, as well as mini-game in which the player collects mice.

In this game, the main storyline is that Emily wants to pursue her dream of running her own tea garden. But for this to be achieved, she must apply for a loan at the local bank, for which she needs the aid of Uncle Antonio. He helps her get a waiting job at a friend's restaurant so she can earn the money she needs, and through referrals, Emily gets to work at three other restaurants before she finally earns enough money to be able to make her dream come true in the last restaurant, being the tea garden itself.

Like the first two games in the series, this game was rated 3.5/5 stars by Gamezebo.

Emily's Taste of Fame

On June 3, 2009, the fourth game in the series, Emily's Taste of Fame, was released. This game included "special events" that change daily and need to be completed separately from the normal time management gameplay, as well as a change in how the storyline is displayed: from classic cutscenes to an inclusion during the gameplay instead.[3] The game also picked up a cast of more than 30 characters, making it the game with the largest cast of talking characters and the largest number of emotions per character of any casual time management game available to the public at the time of its release.[4]

The main storyline of the game is as follows: Emily is offered a chance to host her own cooking show on television. Unfortunately, her car breaks down during the trip to the studio. As she tries to find help getting her car fixed, she, in turn, decides to lend a helping hand to others out of sheer kindness.

Gamezebo rated the game 4.5/5 stars, higher than its rating for the first 3 games of the series.

The game was also nominated three times by the 2010 GameHouse Great Game Awards in the gaming categories Game of the Year, the Game of the Year People's Choice, and the Top Time Management Games. It won the award in the category of Top Time Management Games.

Gameplay

In the Delicious games, players take the role of Emily, and are given the task to run a restaurant. Customers come in, alone or in a group, and choose to either sit down at a table or take out. Emily must serve them their order, and accept payment, before they become impatient and leave. Order sizes vary from 1 to 2 items for a single customer, and up to 4 items for a group. Fast service and entertainment, along with creative restaurant decorating, can keep the customers happy and result in a bigger tip.

Serving orders

There are a number of types of items that customers can order, which increases in number and complexity as the game progresses.

  • Items that are ready to serve, and have no limit capacity. When ordered, these items can be served right away, without preparing or restocking.
  • Items that need to be combined, and restocked after a few servings. Nachos, for instance, need to be combined with a dip before they can be served. The Nacho-machine holds only a number of servings, and needs to be refilled when or before it's empty, before nachos can be served again.
  • Items that are first combined, and then stocked up to 9 items. Ice cream for instance is made by combining basic vanilla ice cream with a choice of fruit.
  • Items that are first grilled or baked, and then prepared. Crepes for instance are first baked a few seconds, and are then combined with ice cream. Steaks can be prepared as medium or well-done, depending on how long it's grilled. These items will burn if they are baked too long though.
  • Items that are prepared using a timer that must be stopped in time, such as crème brûlée or profiteroles.
  • Tea is served by combining tea leaves with water. When Emily is out of a certain type of leaves, she must pick new ones and restock them.

Cleaning

Aside from serving customers their orders, Emily must also keep the tables in the restaurant clean, when customers have used them. If there are no clean tables available when new customers that were planning on sitting down come in, they will leave.

Although cleaning the tables is just a matter of one click, it does take up valuable time. During some point in each restaurant, help is automatically hired to clean the tables.

Entertainment

Customers can be very impatient. This is why after a few days of a restaurant, an entertainer is introduced. When an entertainer is sent to a table with customers, this will make them happy and give them more patience while they wait to be served. Happier customers also leave bigger tips. In the first Delicious there are chocolates instead of an entertainer, and in Delicious: Emily's Holiday Season, newspapers are used instead of an entertainer in the Snuggford Hotel. In Delicious: Emily's Honeymoon Cruise and Delicious: Emily's New Beginning, the entertainer has to be bought in the shop. In Delicious: Emily's Home Sweet Home, some entertainers are automatically hired and some have to be bought in the shop. After Delicious: Emily's New Beginning, players are unable to see a red heart showing up next to ecstatic customers.

Decorating

Aside from the profit Emily makes during a day, she can earn a certain amount of money that can be spent on decorating her restaurant. These decorations vary from new furniture, to aesthetic items like paintings and plants. A well-decorated restaurant keeps the customers happy and patient, and result in bigger tips.

Mouse mini-game

Delicious: Emily's Tea Garden introduced two new features. One is the mouse mini-game. A mouse is hidden in each level, popping into view every now and then. To catch it, the player must click on it, adding 100 points to the day's score. The player will hear a squeak when the mouse appears on screen. The mouse can be easy or hard to find. This mini-game has continued into every game after Delicious: Emily's Tea Garden.

Reservations

The other new feature Delicious: Emily's Tea Garden introduced is reservations. At one level in the game, a telephone will appear. The player can click on it when it rings and after the player clicks on the phone a bar will appear showing the size of the group and when the customers will arrive. The player must then grab a reservation card, under the phone, and place it on a table with enough seats for the group. No other customers can sit at a table with a reservation card. When the timer is empty, the customers arrive. If they can take a seat at a table with a reservation card, the player gets a 100-point bonus. Aside from one mini-game in Delicious: Emily's Wonder Wedding, Delicious: Emily's Tea Garden is the only Delicious game to have reservations.

Easter eggs

In Delicious: Emily's Tea Garden, Delicious: Emily's Taste Of Fame, Delicious: Emily's Holiday Season, and Delicious: Emily's Childhood Memories, Easter eggs are hidden around different levels in each game. If the player finds all Easter eggs in the games, a trophy is awarded. Also, in Delicious: Emily's Childhood Memories, a small memory card mini-game is hidden in each restaurant. Winning the memory card mini-game awards the player extra time. In Delicious: Emily's Honeymoon Cruise and Delicious: Emily's New Beginning, a mini game is hidden on the main menu. In Delicious: Emily's Home Sweet Home, a mini-game is hidden on the map.[5]

In Delicious: Emily's New Beginning, a new feature was added that allows players to make menu choices according to preferences of customers. At the beginning of each restaurant day, the player gets two options per dish of which one can be chosen according to the customers that are expected that day. In Delicious: Emily's Home Sweet Home, the player starts with menu choices that they can not change. Achieving specific goals in each restaurant unlocks new menu options, then the player can then choose what menu items to use. Most menu items have special bonus: faster preparation, bonus tip, spill proof, or burn proof and some menu items have multiple bonuses.
