Yummy Drink Factory Mini-Review
Given my love of all things coffee and chocolatey, I could not resist downloading Yummy Drink Factory. The description of the game sounded a little reminiscent of the famous Diner Dash time management games, and the look of the game art appealed to me.
First, the not-so-good: The characters in the story are rather obnoxious. How can I feel motivated to play well and cheer myself on, if I am playing in the position of the main character — who happens to be very cold-hearted and rude? I also am not a fan of having to click “Next” to read sentence after sentence of rather drab dialogue between the characters. I prefer to get the gist of the story all at once. I am a working woman, after all. 
On the other hand: The game art is very pleasing to the eye — wonderful, vibrant colors and 
scenery. Since I am pretty awful at time management games, the tutorials were appreciated, and I was glad that the recipes were so simple from the start. The difficulty seems to increase very gradually, so I was able to keep up. I also appreciated the option to end the level once the daily goal is reached, as some levels (as true with any game) aren’t as fun as others. Best of all, I loved the “coffee shop” setting of the game with a fantasy twist — and the perspective of the camera viewing only the counter, materials and customers is refreshing when compared to the old model of actually showing the main character move about the scene.
Overall I would recommend giving this game a play, especially if you are a fan of time management-meets-memory games. Official Jovi scale — I’d give it a 7 out of 10.
