I really like this game and others like it. However I am on the French Romance section and it seems as if it’s waaaaaay more difficult than the previous sections. On the timed levels you only get 60 seconds to make ~800 or more coins when in previous sections to you would get almost two minutes to get the same amount of coins. Plus the waitress has more walking distance in this section than others with around half of the items to give to customers are upstairs as compared to other sections that are one floor. Not to mention the customers all request the same item all at the same time but the staff/item upgrades are WAY more expensive to purchase with coins than in previous sections. IE a slot upgrade or revenue upgrade would be ~2000 coins when in French Romance it’s ~4500+ coins. Which if I’m constantly running out of what little time I have I cannot get the coins needed without spending real money. I REALLY don’t want to delete this game cause it’s a great time passer when I’m bored but it’s becoming obvious it’s just a cash grab in the later sections. I really think French Romance needs to be reevaluated to give players a little more time to get the objective done rather than just 60 seconds to make 1000+ coins OR make the upgrades cheaper and more obtainable for players to actually get.

……but you will need to be smart and watch a LOT of ads. if you cannot watch an ad for +30% boost, i would stop playing until the ads refresh. you also need to watch all of the free ads for the day and complete all of the weekly challenges that give you 200 ads at the end. you also need to try very hard to get two keys after every level because those chests make a difference. try to save your boosts for emergencies (you can’t pass a level without upgrading and you don’t have the resources or you don’t want to spend them). if you don’t want to go in your wallet, you will need to have strategy and a lot of patience. i find the money management piece challenging but the gameplay itself is not, unless you are trying to play with no upgrades which is literally impossible. the main reason for the 3 stars is customer support. i’ve reported multiple glitches and sometimes the ads don’t pay as they should and they will gaslight you and provide very little assistance or reimbursements. it’s kind of silly for a small mobile game. i have been close to purchasing packages but have ultimately chosen not to because of how difficult support is when there’s an issue. EDIT: i don’t know who or what is responding to your reviews but that was not an appropriate response to what i wrote. removing a star

I just wanna start off by saying that I really enjoy this mobile game and have put in many hours. It is definitely a pay to play type game, and I have spent a good amount of my hard earned money. The most frustrating thing is once you get to the third restaurant, it becomes even more pay to play.. suddenly things are more expensive, coins are very hard to obtain, the restaurant layout is impossible, and you constantly fail levels until the games algorithm realizes you can’t pass because you’re refusing to pay for the upgrades, that it lets you pass. However, you will continue to struggle constantly because they make it extremely hard to earn coins. And lives cost 150 diamonds to refill, which is insane. I really enjoy this game, it’s just sad how greedy and predatory the developers become after somebody has spent so much time grinding through the first two restaurants…. Not to mention the automatic clean tables upgrade jumping up an extra 500 diamonds after the third restaurant. That is ridiculous. I don’t see myself finishing the third restaurant due to pure frustration and greediness of the developers.
