In the challenging puzzle style games, Diner Dash was always a favorite, even all the way back to our Windows Mobile days. In the simplistic, yet challenging format, you are a waitress in a restaurant and have to shuffle in the guests, feed them and get them out before the next set arrives or becomes unhappy.
Game play is very simple, with guests arriving to the left of the screen. You select the pop-up box, then place them at a table. You then click them to take their order, and run it to the counter by clicking the ticket holder in the upper left corner of the counter area. Once the order is done, select the plate for the table you are going to, drop it off and start the next one. As you see a table finish, click it to collect your money, then clear the dishes by dropping them in the dish tray to the right of the counter and start all over.
As you complete each level, you will be given more tables and more sets of customers. Be careful how you seat your guests as you only have a few tables that will hold the larger parties.
Overall, we have to give this game pretty high marks, but the $4.99 price tag might be a bit steep in an era of free being the going rate for many entertaining games. We give the game play itself a solid 4 out of 5, but the $4.99 price tag only gets it a 3. We will average it out at 3.5 and call it a fun way to kill some time.
Diner Dash 2: 3.5 out of 5 - $4.99 in the Android Market or the Amazon App Store
