Cooking Fever vs Happy Cafe
Cooking Fever
Cooking Fever is not only an insanely fun, restaurant-themed, time management game by Nordcurrent; it is also a game that’s fair to its players. Granted that you'll eventually need to spend the game's so-called "premium currency" or gems on either kitchen or shop upgrades, in order to get a 3-star rating for all levels, or even on unlocking a new restaurant, the game provides you with multiple ways to earn these gems for free. Not to mention, Cooking Fever's exciting gameplay is based on the popular, and hectic, Diner Dash game where you'll need to prepare the ingredients and cook the food before serving it to your waiting customers. The game also offers plenty of variety when it comes to the types of restaurants and cuisines as well as both forms of upgrades.Cooking Fever is the long-awaited time management game that fans of Diner Dash or other similar games would really enjoy. It's incredibly addictive, so be sure to clear up at least an hour of your time before booting up the game for the first time!
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.
