All I had to do was press the button to skip it and everything was fine. The opening conversation between Quinn and Flo is when it first started, and then it did again a couple more times in the other conversations they had as the game progressed. During some of the first cutscenes in the game, it would replay the cutscene when it was actually supposed to end and go back to Flo. I did experience a bit of a glitch in the game, but it isn’t anything terrible like one might think when they hear the word glitch. There were clues from Quinn on how the order they should go in, so I really had a blast with something a little more logic based. If I had to choose my favorite, it was the mini-game in the Dessert Oasis shop where I had to arrange various pastries on platters. I loved how they included an option to skip past levels, although I only did it that one time at the end, but some players might use it more than I did and will really utilize that feature.Īside from the crazy present tower, there were ridiculously fun mini-games like where you had to sort books in the town library, do a word scramble using tiles to spell out fruits and vegetables at the local market, and create baby shower themed cookies. In order to get past it, I had to skip that level of the mini-game. It’s a combination of reverse Jenga and Tetris, but there was one instance where I had everything stacked up properly yet the game didn’t recognize it. I won’t tell you why it must be done, but the controls were very sensitive. I absolutely loved almost all of them, but the one at the end where you have to stack the shower gifts into a tower was a little frustrating. The obvious stars of the show are the mini-games. Fortunately you only have to find 99 of them throughout the game since Quinn managed to save 1. Big wants his darling Vicky to be greeted with 100 of the latex giants as soon as she enters her surprise shower. In fact, I think the recycling for subway token idea is genius, and hopefully we see something like that one day in major metropolitan cities. Kudos to PlayFirst for including something like recycling in a game, and having it play an integral part rather than some random thing. The plastic bottles serve a purpose as you must collect 20 of them in each “district” so that you can recycle them and get a subway token. In addition to going through and saving the shower from being a complete disaster, there are balloons to find as well as plastic bottles. It might sound like a lot when reading it, but oddly enough it really all made sense. To launder the table linens, I had to fix a washing machine, rummage through my purse for money to get tokens for the machines, and find a lucky striped sock so that I could convince a lady to let me use the dryer. With each task that Quinn gives you, there is a process, but it never felt tedious. More cookies had to be baked, special bunny-shaped napkins were needed, the table cloths had to be laundered, and so much more. Unlike other games I’ve played that take place in the DinerTown universe, I actually got to roam around and explore, but it was a part of the story and not like a sandbox game. Knowing that Flo is there to save the day Quinn calls upon her for help hoping she can fix things quickly. Big’s daughter who’s about to pop any second, things to terribly wrong when a bunch of dogs crash into the room, destroying everything Quinn worked so hard on. While putting the finishing touches on a shower for Vicky, Mr. Flo’s cousin, Quinn, has branched out from her wedding planning business and is now into baby showers. Now, don’t get me wrong…I love the DASH franchise, however it was really nice to play something different. In Avenue Flo: Special Delivery, Flo travels through DinerTown in an adventure that is a welcome departure from DASH time-management games. It took less than 30 seconds for the game to show me that what I was playing focused more on the characters in the DinerTown universe, and that I was in for a lot of mini-game fun. Having never played the original Avenue Flo PC game, I honestly was under the assumption that I would be playing another game similar to Cooking Dash, Diner Dash, and Wedding Dash.
