Restaurant Master
Not all Adam Sandler movies suck, you know. Okay, most of them do, but even to this day Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore still make me laugh. Even the man now probably recognized as the unfunniest person in showbiz (Jim Carrey is a close second), Mike Myers, had an early moment in his career with a little movie called So I Married An Axe Murderer, which I always watch whenever it’s on TV. In either case, it took some time to see the “genius” in those films, even though both actors used much of the same shtick in their later films like The Wedding Singer and The Waterboy and the Wayne’s World and Austin Powers movies respectively. In many ways, I feel the same about Restaurant Master by Jang Chan Woo. The game and I started off on the wrong foot: it didn’t work when I first downloaded it, but after the update to support 3.0, it has been a blast to play. Yes, it’s like a certain game that we all may know in which you sit customers down, wait on them, make their food and serve them as soon as possible. But, with the addition of some quirky Asian flavor to the mix, this surprisingly deep game keeps you guessing and therefore, never gets boring. Skews more to the anime/manga crowd, i.e. FLCL and Azumanga Daioh, than anything else. Worth giving a spin. Price: 99¢.
