Diner Dash 2: Restaurant Rescue is the celebrated sequel of a beloved franchise from PlayFirst. It sees player take control of Flo, an extremely overworked diner owner and seemingly the only person who knows how to run food in the city. If you love a fast-paced game with straightforward but challenging gameplay then this is going to be a delightful dish for you. Let’s dig in.
Gameplay
This game is a considerable amount of pointing and clicking, I’ll be real with you. That being said, that’s not all there is to it. Taking control of Flo, its your objective to jump into the restaurant scene and keep all the customers fed and happy, keep the establishment clean, and deal with whatever other challenges that might come along. It requires nearly constant close attention to everything on screen and an understanding of time management skills.
Things may seem easy at first but my goodness do they pick up. You may only be serving a handful of people in the first few levels but as tables increase and they are ordering more and more things, you will quickly see exactly what this game has to offer in terms of challenge.
Diner Dash 2 is pleasantly clever on what it actually requires Flo to do. When the dishes need to be done, this is something that actually only requires a click from the player and is completed instantaneously. There is no need for the action to stop or slow down in anyway, complimenting the games pacing. Games like Hotel Dash, Cake Mania and Cooking Dash all embody the general vibe of this title, but none hit the mark quite like it.
Story
There didn’t have to be a story for this game, the dev’s could have chalked it up to “this is just how it is, deal with it” but they didn’t, they gave us a little more than that and we’re grateful. Flo must push back against the super capitalist Mr. Big, a greedy landlord, who wants to turn a bunch of local restaurants into some kind of mega-food-plaza which will likely put everyone out of business. Flo, the only person with any waiting experience, must assist multiple venues with their customers so they can all earn enough money to off his business plans and pay him back.

Diner Dash 2 Restaurant Rescue
Visuals
The game has simple graphics, a little low poly, but everything is clear enough to see and the action is easy to follow. For a game that prides itself on just how fast paced it is, this art style accents it very well. It’s colorful and well formatted but occasionally the screen can get a little full up in the later scenes, admittedly that rarely effects the gameplay itself but it can lend to a somewhat overwhelming feeling.
There are four total restaurants that Flo is helping with and each of them have their own theme and layout. Each restaurant’s design perfectly accents its theme without being too crowded or stereotypical.
For a classic title that’s got some years on it, this is without a doubt the finest game of its genre. Give it a go asap.
Pros:
- Fast paced gameplay
- Great level design
Cons:
- Lackluster visuals
