it looks like there's a new diner dash game out! i played for a little bit and haven't made up on my mind but its totally fun. i'm still trying to finish the first one!

[mvandermeulen]

OMG! I am on the last level and what hair I haven't pulled out is gray!
I'm going to keep trying the advice from the above posts. However, If I ever beat this game I plan to have my head examined on why I am spending my down time becoming so stressed and overly obsessed with a game that I actually paid money for!!! If I get anything out of this it will be that I become a better tipper. (except at buffets of course)

@Sleepn2dream13

if any one can send me the code or something

Read the forum rules! What you are asking is against our rules and is also illegal.
Hassle your mum more to buy the game for you, tell her it will stop you from breaking the law! Then she will possibly slap you about the head for attempting to bribe her.

And dont Double Post the same question!

I have been stuck here for days, I've tried the podium, seating only 4 tables, more, less, bread, etc. Any help would be most appreciated, it's driving me bonkers

[nitesparkle]

From what I'm reading, everyone seems to be stuck at certain levels due to not knowing how to "CHAIN". Here's a few hints

Food Chain Bonus Values

* Food Chain x1: 30
* Food Chain x2: 60
* Food Chain x3: 90
* Food Chain x4: 120
* Food Chain x5: 150
* Food Chain x6: 180

* Order Chain x1: 20
* Order Chain x2: 40
* Order Chain x3: 60
* Order Chain x4: 80
* Order Chain x5: 100
* Order Chain x6: 120
* Order Chain x7: 140

Chaining is taking all orders at the same time without interuption, delivering food without interuption, giving the check without interuption, and clearing plates without interuption. The more you can do at one time, the better the bonus.

As you progress in the game you will have several different types of customers that have different levels of patience, so time your seating accordingly to maximize the chain!

* Businesswomen: they tip very well, but have a short temper to wait in line or at the table.
* Mr. Hot Shot: very patient in line, very impatient at the table, tips well.
* College kids: very impatient in line, like to linger at the table, give reasonable tips.
* Young girls: friendly customers, they give good tips and are moderately patient.
* Seniors: elderly men who are a lot more patient in line and at the table, take a long time to eat and don't tip so well.
* The restaurant critics: VIP customers, they can come alone or in groups. They give you a star if they leave pleased, but will cost you points if they don't get a good impression. A star is an "extra life", which you use when you fail to reach the level goal. This in only certain levels and usually comes at the worst time. Make sure they get drinks/snacks as they will give you an extra star when pleased.

Snack/drinks are great if you have the most impatient people sitting with very few hearts. If you have to break a chain to serve them snacks and keep their heart level up, DO IT! IN the later levels losing customers costs you 1000-2000.

Seat in that order. When using the podium, you can hold the seniors and young girls in line. Just remember to go back to the podium after dropping off the checks. For a great chain bonus, clean all tables at one time after making sure everyone in line is happy.

Customer cannot leave:
If customers are at 1 heart level and your podium heart will not hold them long enough, then move the pointer over the customer and "hold" them until your podium heart is full. The customer will not be able to leave.

Levels 1, 2, and 3 you shouldn't seat more than 4 tables at a time. This will help you learn how to chain, which gives you the bonus you need to pass the level. As you go farther in the game, you can do 6 tables, then 8.

Level 5-10 (Goal: 45,000 Expert Goal: 55,000)
Two tables for 6, four tables for 4, four tables for 2, 8-seat bar. Customers come in red, blue, yellow, purple and green; they are Mr. Hot Shot, girls, college kids, businesswomen and seniors. The color bonuses are back. This will be a long shift and people will line up off the screen. Keep seniors and Mr. Hot Shots waiting in line and serve the impatient ones first.

That's where I am right now, tough to chain and not have customers leave. Hope all of this helps! Good Luck!

Thanks for the tips!

I gave up on that game for awhile and went through the entire Diner Dash 2, which I liked better, now I'm going to conquer Diner Dash 1!

[sassytrisha]

Woohoo.

I went back through and got expert on every level and just finished the game with 105,720. I beat diner dash 2 once, maybe I will try the expert on that too. Great game, but now I can get some chores done, LOL.

[Adezigns]

I beat the game and am now going back to get EXPERT scores on all the levels. (Yes, I'm addicted.) Silly as it is, the only one I can't seem to get expert on is level 9 on restaurant ONE! There is no podium, only drinks....any help someone? I can't seem to get past 11,000.

Also, for those of you still playing, the tips on these pages are great, couldn't have got thru without them, but the one piece of advice that got me to the end was...BE PATIENT. Don't seat all the tables, wait at the podium for as long as you have to so you can chain. Good luck!!

I'm on the 5th resturant, 3rd level. Here are some tips I have found very helpful.

Do not fill up all of your tables. Leave 1-2 empty.
At the start, wait until you have enough people in line to seat all at the same time. This is a huge help. While you are waiting for the line to fill up, take note of seat/people colors so you can get an idea of where to put them. Seat older people first then the others. Stay standing at the podium until you can seat them. This makes them all full of happiness before they sit down. Take all orders at the same time, make tables happy w/ drinks or snacks, deliver orders. Then go stand at the podium and make the line people happy. Then clear tables and seat people and start again. It gets tricky but if you do this, you will pass the levels. The 5th resturant gets a little strange!!!!

What is this game about? strategy?

[carrie]

how do you get through level 3-4

[AnyavanS1261994]

Ok, iv'e been reading through some stuff and here are some thigs I found out. Hope it helps

*Chaining is EVERYTHING!!!!

*Abuse the podium. Stand at it increasing everyone's love until closing time, then seat the whole restaurant in this order:
-Business women
-Young ladies
-Seniors
This only works on res. 1-3.

* Increase everyone's love at the podium until you have four-six groups of two similar types (Business women + Young ladies, Seniors + College kids)
After seating them, increase everyone's love until their ready to order DO NOT STOP TALKING AT THE PODIUM UNTIL YOUR DONE. You need to be at the podium as much as possible.

Ex:
-Seat customers
-Talk at podium
-Get Orders
-Talk at podium
and so on....

That's all I got. Stuck on Restaurant 4 Level....Something Can anyone help?
