Happy Cafe vs World Chef
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.
World Chef
World Chef is a fun restaurant simulation game where you'll get to cook up a storm, serve your customers a wide variety of cuisines, have fun decorating your place with décor from a plethora of themes, while helping to restore your grandpa's restaurant to its former popularity!The game is very easy to get into and the gameplay is also easy to understand. The ultimate goal of the game is for you to build up the popularity of your restaurant so it can reach a 3-star rating, and you can slowly increase your popularity rating by placing decorations. However, the decor all costs cash so you'll need to cook some dishes and sell them for some profit.
Aside from this, there are plenty of other features that you can eventually unlock as you level up in this game. Each of these features provides you with something extra, be it the ability to attract celebrities to your restaurant, to gather exotic ingredients or even to upgrade your dishes so they can sell for more. World Chef is also a very social game, and this is evident in its somewhat unique, friends-driven gameplay.
World Chef is a really entertaining, free-to-play restaurant simulation game. Aside from the unique friends-based SOS feature, its gameplay is basically very similar to Dining Zoo so if you’ve enjoyed the latter, you’ll definitely love playing the former game.
