Diner Dash: Family Style

Managing a restaurant is not all about good food, since there are many other things that influence your success and the customer satisfaction rating. Thus, beside the plate in front of them, you also have to take care about the actual environment, staff, taxes and various other things that need to be kept in order, if you want to stay in business.

Diner Dash: Family Style shines the spotlight on Flo again and gives you the opportunity to help her become one of the most successful restaurant managers in the country. To achieve this, you must undertake a wide range of activities that are meant to please your customers and expand the business, as well as decorate the diner with everything that you want.

As before, you start off in a pretty desolated place, which barely has a few customers wandering in every now and again. By hiring better staff to cook the food, redesigning the indoors and increasing the quality of the service, you can help Flo kick start the business and start to become popular again, in order to gain more money, tokens and various other bonuses.

One other thing that makes the game so attractive is the colorful graphic engine, which features many hand-drawn objects and more than enough detail to make the environments look as nice as possible. Thus, from the old and mice-ridden carpets you start off with, to the expensive and shiny furniture you unlock toward the end of the game, everything is nicely modeled.

Moreover, the game also features a multiplayer component, which allows you to invite other people into your restaurant and serve them some imaginary food. This can turn into quite the relaxing chat room, especially since you can also communicate with them and exchange text messages while you all enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Finally, there aren't too many bad things to say about Diner Dash: Family Style, since it features a lot of improvements over the previous installment and it can still provide you with copious amounts of fun. Moreover, you are now rewarded with a lot of new items that can be used to increase the popularity of your restaurant, which should keep you playing for quite some time.
