Bonbon Cakery: Overview

I was so happy to finally see this game translated into English version, Bonbon Cakery. It's another free game offered by Kairosoft but of course they will always find other ways to earn just like Beastie Bay and Dream House Days. You just need to spend more time than those who are willing to pay to buy in-game items because it just comes slower. The in-game items are premium tickets and medals, just like the previous two free games which helps leveling up ingredients, staff and others in the game.

What you find similar (Cafe Nipponica, Sushi Spinnery) in this game is that you will need to experiment with base and ingredients to unlock new recipes. Those new recipes will give you more choices to sell in your bakery. The need to sell various things in your bakery is because it appeals to different customers where they level up and unlock things such as ingredients, promotions and etc to progress your game. Games like Hot Spring Story, World Cruise Story and many more have to level up their customers and this game is no exception. Bonbon Cakery certainly has all the same elements/game play that every other Kairosoft game usually have which means you must spend many hours on.

Pocket Harvest

After many many months Kairosoft have finally released an English version of Pocket Harvest. I was truly waiting for earnestly for this game and when it was out I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. When I first run the game I was already kinda disappointed with the song. A little about my kairosoft games obsession, I can tell every games's theme song, I don't need to look and you just start the game I can tell you what game it is. That's how much I love their games and this song was a bit disappointing.  

Never mind about the song then where I was hoping the game play is good. So the game starts where you plant crops and make money from harvesting it. Then you start saving up to purchase land that are nearby you. When you enough to use, the land you purchase will have a shop there. Those shop specializes in certain crops and you can plant those crops in the vicinity of the shop which is highlighted when you select the shop. Something fun about those shops is that they give out missions and when you manage to harvest the amount wanted by the shop you will be rewarded. Other things you can do in the game is to upgrade your crops to make them have better rankings. There is also the option of investment where you unlock more buildings and also visitors to the farm.

The reason to upgrade the crops is to take part in contests and ensure that you have better chance to win. Winning gives you items which helps your crops, farm and your employees which can up their stats. You can also create special items to sell in your shops but before that you will have to unlock the Lab that extract things from the crops as ingredients. You can also use those ingredients to create items instead of getting them as rewards. 

Overall there can be many things to do in the game but it's very repetitive because you have to keep upgrading crops, leveling up employee stats and such.  I don't particularly love this game because it's nothing new at all hence I think this game is not really worth the money at all. I was really looking forward to a new idea in Kairosoft but I was disappointed. Below are some pictures of the game, hope it gives you some insight.

The Pyraplex : An overview

The Pyraplex is a complex in the shape of a pyramid. This is Kairosoft's new game in Google Play Store that was out a few days ago and I was so excited to purchased it at 4.99 USD. The concept is similar to Mega Mall story where you built a shopping complex but there are some extra things in the game. Firstly you will have to build rooms to house your employees and also complete requests from merchants to obtain stamps. The more stamps you obtain, you collect gifts from it which unlocks new stores and events. 

I love that the move feature is already include and need not to be unlocked. I also love the idea of housing your workers and being able to assign them to jobs and training them is also a plus. The game is more realistic this time where to build stores, stones are required and the workers have to carry it there. I love the idea that besides building you also have quests to fulfill which allows you to collect stamps to unlock things. Most Kairosoft games always revolve around pleasing the different type of customers visiting the place and I'm glad that this game does not have this. Instead you trade with people from different countries and unlock more people visiting the place. The game also included the feature of power spots where when you build certain stores next to each other, you'll get a combo and a boost of stats. The stats of your pyraplex influences the amount of people visiting, their spending and also attracting new employees. 

This game is addictive like any other Kairosoft game and it's good that it has a lot of new features to it. I have no complains for this game except for the bug that everyone is facing now which is the text in the message box are out of alignment and words that fall at the corner cannot be read. Hopefully that bug will be fixed soon but it's not much of a trouble if you play the game without reading much of the messages. Below are some pictures of the game play and I took many screenshots this time. Absolutely love this game, will play more to collect data to share. Have a nice day!!

Update: I've got a post on the power spots, check it out here : Pyraplex Power Spots

Kairobotica : An Overview

This game is absolutely the bomb!!! Best game from Kairosoft so far for me and it's really addictive. The moment I saw the game on Google play store I've hit the purchased button. Immediately after installation , I tested the game without realizing time at all. I was playing for 2 hours non-stop and it was fun and I was just at the start of the game. The more I play the more new things I discover. 

I have to say that this game is similar to Dungeon Village which was another great game but what's better is you're not stuck at same village. Your colony gets to travel from one planet to another to complete quests and patrol areas to protect the planets.  Besides doing all those, you get to upgrade your colony with items obtained from patrols and quests. This game is a lot of fun for me because each upgrade produces a different design of the building. There are some things that you'll need to figure out which is what items are helpful to upgrade your building. If you are a Kairosoft fan, you'll understand that it's just so cute to see kairobot fighting and protecting planets.  This is not your typical Kairosoft game where you build and earn money, impress customers and unlock items, because you get to have an adventure! If you like other Kairosoft games, you'll love this game, just read the comments on Google play store. I didn't regret buying this game at all. Below are some pictures of the events that occur in the game and the last picture is how my colony looks like. I hope you enjoy your game and please look forward to a guide that I will publish soon, hopefully next week.

The Sushi Spinnery : An Overview

Do you love sushi? The art of making it? Is your dream to be a sushi restaurant owner? Well you no longer need wait because you can make it happen in a game =P.So this Kairosoft game was released after Pocket Clothier and I immediately bought it because I'm so addicted to their games. It's simple you own a sushi restaurant, you provide your customers the best sushi you can ever make. Honestly, it's simple but not an easy game because you will have to create sushi to impress customers which will unlock more customers. Also running a good sushi store will unlock more decorations and store items. 

To make good sushi, sushi coin is utilized to obtain good ingredients which gives you the good sushi. Winning contest will also help the restaurant but it is not easy because you need to slowly work out a sushi that will impress the judges. There is a lot of figuring out to do in order to unlock new stuff. I'm just playing my first rotation of the game and it is really hard to come out with good sushi combos and I've spent much sushi coin which result to nothing gained. Another thing about preparing sushi, the sushi chef must also have good skills because if they have low prep skill and discern skill, the amount of ingredients used and also how much of texture, flavor, aroma and such level up will suffer. 

Pocket Clothier: An Overview

Converted from the Japanese version we now have an English version available on Google play store. I bought this game just by reading people's feedback on the Japanese version so I didn't know what to expect.  Basically the game is on you managing a clothing store which will be expanded to a department store size. I have to admit this game is easy, you can earn easily and there is not a lot of things to juggle. You have to rely on sales to unlock more different clothes to sell. Other than that, different clothes also bring about different type of customers. There are also plans that help customer discover careers but to get to their goals you will have to pair clothes that will increase the percentage of succeeding.

My advice in earning in this game is that keep selling and don't bother with upgrading the fixtures unless you have plenty of cash to spare. Also set your staff priority well so it improves sales such as skill that attracts more male or female customers. What I did is I arrange all female clothing in one floor and male clothing on another floor alternately, it helps to keep track of the clothes you have. Ultimately this is the easiest Kairosoft game I've played and it's not much of a challenge. I don't really think it was worth my money because there's nothing much to do in the game since everything is simple. But there is one thing I love about this game is that you can move the things that you have installed anywhere you like because some Kairosoft games do not have the move ability.

It's still my first round with the game so when I start a new one I will track what clothes unlock what customers, careers available and also what tenants bring about what customers.
