Review based on the complete game -- This is a Gem !
I love everything about it. Remember my Diablo time when we bring our PC's on friends house and play with wire connections - yes wires - it was so great ! On top of that I was a Magic Cards player so mix a Diablo Gameplay with a Deck of Cards is a win-win for me.
The game is so cute - it's a paperverse with lovely characters and many kind of demons. The village and it's inhabitants help you with potions, upgrades and tell entertaining stories. You have the choice of 3 characters (Knight - Thief and a Mage) and each have different abilities. I've play them all and it was super fun each time.
The strategy is great and the gameplay is addictive. The voices and the sounds are good. No bugs or problem either. The're are plenty of humorous things like the characters bio and the Boss names : )
I wish they do another game (it was supposed to be a series) but the site of the developers seems abandoned : ( Nevertheless this is truly a good game and i will replay it for sure.

Avis sur le jeu fait en entier incluant le chapitre bonus. Note : ✬✬✬ ½
J'adore cette série - c'est l'une de mes préférées. Les univers musicaux y sont toujours bien rendus et divertissants. J'aime particulièrement celui-ci qui couvre les années 70. Les décors, les vêtements et les personnages sont bien rendus avec de nombreux détails. L'histoire est correcte et fait référence à la légende de la chanson "Hôtel California".
Malheureusement le jeu est bien trop court et le chapitre bonus est l'un des plus rapides auquel j'ai joué. Il y a trop de SOC versus les mini-jeux et ils sont trop faciles - cela raccourcit considérablement le jeu. L'ensemble demeure divertissant et bien conçu comme les autres titres de la série et pour cette raison je le recommande mais uniquement aux fans.
The game have cute graphs and lovely sounds effects but this is not enough to made it a good M3.
I played with limited moves.
#1 No profil settings. Only one person at a time can play it. #2 No replay levels. For obscure reasons finishing a level way under the limited amount of moves gives you 3 or 2 or 1 stars ! Performing is not rewarding in this game and you cannot replay your current level and see your rating stars after you finished. #4 Trophies but there are so few. I don't see the purpose. #3 No challenge. It's so easy, made for little kids. The powers up are ----- well too powerful and the board is often finished without clicking anything ---- like you're not there ----- like a ghost game ---- feel creepy .... A no go 4me.
Could be interesting for those who don't want a challenge or want to see a game play by itself : /
Characters, music and graphs are good. Trophies with a Parc to decorate but the game needs a "Buy Improvements" section. Not been able to upgrade your shops is not strategic and a bit boring.
Story is ... weird and mysterious. Little city with inhabitants who acts like fools. Know that this game have a To Be Continue ... story. Hope the developers will do a part 2 or we will end up with a non-re-playable game !
Clear and crisp graphics, Christmas music, little fun story, three playing modes with two difficulty settings, a room to decorate with movable objets, powerup and 100 levels.
I play on the Expert Limited Moved and the challenge was not really hard. But I enjoy this game with all the cuteness and the lovable characters.
Merry Christmas to All the BFGamers and the BFTeam, an Happy New Year and many fun Gaming Moments in 2020 ! *

What a disappointment !
The first game is one of my favorite management game ! Why developers feel the needs to change a win combination is beyond me !
This game have the most stupid and annoying gameplay I have ever encounter ...
● The background is so big it didn't fit the screen so each time you click it's moving and you have to put it back. Grrrrrrrrrr ● You cannot add multiples items of the same kind in your inventory - it's one by one. ● No Trash Bin - So if you make a mistake you have to put the item on the counter clic on a x and re-take the good one - a total waste of time. ● You cannot click on customers to see their order without serving what you have on your tray - so they end up most of time with a wrong item. ● The employees are inefficient and way too slow even with all the upgrades at full. ● Levels don't have any amount of dollars to achieve - you start and even with 0$ you can finish it and start again and again and again and again endlessly. The challenge is only related to the obligated tasks - clean tables, served customers and buy stuff - what you already do by playing the game - Dah ! ● The delivery part is ridiculous with sometimes 10 items to creates - one by one - in few seconds - come on ! ● The musicians are useless - they don't play most of the time. ● Takes forever to have the items you want to buy unlocked (like the multiples coffee machines) - so no strategy here - you are bind with what they offer you.
The first game is still one of my favorite and I replay it every year at Christmas : )
And every year I hope for a new Jo's Organic Coffee to replace this fiasco ...
Review based on the entire game and the bonus chapter.
I love Fairy Tales stories and i love this game ! It's an excellent subject with many possibilities. I like when the developers re-visit old stories and create new plot and play with it. The characters are great with some changes on their personalities - I lov that !
The design and the graphics are good but i'm not a fan of those vivid colors - I rather prefer natural ones. The atmosphere is good with a mix of magic and modern world. Good music, not annoying and suit well this type of game. The story is good with some interesting moments ...
Many collectibles and a lovely bonus level - almost better than the game itself. Puzzles are fun - some are hard, some are too easy. Love the HOS, they are fun with different types.

I lov everything about this game !
The story is cute and fun, the characters are well done and the design is great - colorful with a retro touch. The music make me smile : )
Strategy is required to be able to achieve the 3 stars. Improvements are important and will makes the difference. Candy and money appear through out the game and need to be collected - this will give some happiness and earnings to achieve the goal. Don't forget to talk to some customers at the counter who disturb others - they will left. The length is good with 60 levels. Bonus side : An Island to decorate and some trophies.
A simple and fun management game for expert gamers (◠ ᴗ ◠).

Avis basé sur le jeu entier, y compris le chapitre bonus.
Elephant Games et Eipix ont ruiné cette excellente série qui compte des millions de fans à travers le monde. Les graphismes sont flous et bon marché, sans commune mesure avec les jeux des développeurs originaux. Les SOC sont ennuyeuses, peu attrayantes et sans innovations.
L'histoire est sans intérêt - ils n'ont que mélanger certains éléments des anciens opus, le tout rendu de façon confuse. Les casse-tête sont faciles et sans originalités - même les "Puzzles de Goldberg" sont ruinés - ce ne sont que des énigmes communes disposées sur un tableau ce qui n'a rien à voir avoir avec le concept d'origine.
Le personnage principal qui se doit d'être tordu et sinistre est ridicule et stupide. Même un enfant ne le trouverait pas crédible. La longueur du jeu est courte - chapitre bonus inclus. On n'y retrouve qu'un seul type d'objet a collectionner ce qui est insuffisant pour un MCF. Ce jeu n'a rien à voir avec d'autres titres sortis cette année réalisés par d'autres développeurs ou l'imagination et la qualité sont au rendez-vous.
Ces nouveaux MCF n'ont rien de comparable aux jeux d'origine et le développeur ne devrait pas utiliser ce titre qui, pour les fans, veux dire quelque chose ! Je me souviens de mon premier MCF - Dire Groove (acheté en boîte :) et du plaisir que j’ai eu à jouer à ce jeu pendant des heures et à m'y retrouver complètement immergé. Je possède tous les jeux originaux de cette série et celui-ci n'est qu'un titre banal parmi tant d'autres. Mieux que Rewind - cet échec total, mais similaire à The Countless qui est l'un des pires de la série.
La meilleure chose qui pourrait arriver à cette série serait de donner les droits à d’autres développeurs - personne ne pourra faire pire !
