I agree with you SeaBurial, the 'crazy voiceover/unseen character who puts you through tests/levels' is kind of an uncreative narrative crutch, which, in this case, distracts from an otherwise clever and fun puzzle game.
Around day 20, the difficulty seems to peak. I'm on day 37 now and have long since stopped having a struggle with the game. It seems the max that will come to the restaurant in a day is 8! With the timers, spatulas, and extra grills, once you have a feel for the game, it stops becoming challenging. Apart from that, it's the best Papa's game yet! 4/5
Wow, they REALLY improved on the series as it went along. This one is still good, but everything is just way more intuitive later on. It'd be interesting to see this one updated with a Papa's Pizzeria 2 or something.
