Cooking Tale vs Happy Cafe
Cooking Tale
Cooking Tale is a fun yet somewhat simple, cooking-themed time management game that is developed by Gamegos. In this game, you'll assume the role of a fresh graduate with a culinary diploma and a determination to make it on her own. You stumbled upon a rundown burger stand and thought... well, why not start there?The gameplay in Cooking Tale will definitely put your time management skills to the test and keep constantly busy as you try your best to fulfill all your customers' orders. Unlike other games, you have a pretty trimmed-down upgrades system for your kitchen tools but in terms of shop decor, which should help you extend the patience of your customers, there is only very few of them. Due to this, the game actually relies more on your skills rather than the tools you use. But of course, if you need some help, there are always boosters to tilt a game to your advantage.
Featuring over 730 levels of widely varying themes, Cooking Tale is a mobile/Facebook game that's simple enough to be perfect for some casual time management fun and yet is challenging enough to keep you coming back for more.
Happy Cafe
Happy Cafe is a restaurant/cafe management sim that may bring to mind games like Restaurant City (R.I.P.). Unlike traditional cooking-themed sims, this game allows you to actually build your own restaurant from the starter restaurant that you get. Prepare and cook a wide variety of dishes from across countries and cultures, put them up on display counters, and serve them to your respective customers. Like most sims though, you can decorate your place to your liking, expand your cafe, upgrade your kitchen appliances and also, being a rather social game, invite your friends to help you out from time to time. Best yet, the game even has a nice eco garden where you can plant, grow and harvest your very own organic ingredients to be used at your cafe.So, if you're looking for a restaurant/cafe management sim that's more laidback and where its "cooking process" merely includes a waiting time, then Happy Cafe is the game for you. It may not be a time management game, which happens to be an area they are an expert in, but Nordcurrent manages to deliver a wonderful game nonetheless.
