RS2 News (Jan 2016)

It's that time of the month again, where I round-up all the exciting stuff that's been going on in the sequel game, Restaurant Story 2.

When I last posted this enrapturing news segment the Snack Wars! quest was in full swing. Following the Tummy Rumble goals which were very complicated in nature, this goal set was a welcome relief to most players. The main reason for the much simpler format was the inclusion of many existing recipes, which played their part in progressing through the various steps.

It goes without saying that there were some additions though. In this case these came in a three pronged style: Dark Chocolate could be collected from serving water to parched customers, which was then used to make Dark Mole Sauce, which was in turn an ingredient involved in the Seven Leia Dip. This dip held the key to the goals as it featured in nearly every step and ultimately had to be mastered.

Year in review 2015

Happy New Year everyone! It's been another year of ups and downs in Restaurant Story, with a wide variety of updates and new features. And as I will look to demonstrate in this review, it's been a 12 months which can really be looked at as a tale of two halves.

We'll start this nostalgic look back at 2015 at the very beginning. Being the 30th anniversary year of the theatrical release of Back to the Future, Storm8 decided to provide a commemoration of sorts, with the Time Machine and Mad Scientist released into the market for a limited time. It was a pretty cool way to begin the New Year, and would be a sign of things to come in the following months.

The first update itself was goals orientated and focused on Winter. It was here that the Ice Rink was added as the final prize, and it has gone on to be a very useful item.
