### 3/5 — Nice

*2026-03-13, version 1.2*

Nice

### 3/5 — Traditional Emily

*2025-10-31, version 1.2*

Its good to be back playing delicious' game, it was a good traditional Emily story.  Unfortunately, the storyline was not as charming as it used to be in my opinion, the storyline bored me. I never liked Angela's game so when shes in the story its already a negative for me and the little love trope with Emily's kid along with all the useless slang was not cute.

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2025-09-18, version 1.2*

It was nice to be challenged for once. I actually started it on a higher difficulty because historically they’ve been too easy. But I ended up changing it back to default. The store items were a little high.

### 2/5 — Ads

*2025-09-03, version 1.2*

I’m not one to mind watching ads here and there especially for free games, I do it often actually. You have to watch an ad for EVERY single level you play. Also an ad when you finish the level. Too many ads. I would have kept playing and in the long run watched more ads if it wasn’t so aggressive with them.

### 5/5 — Best Delicious Yet!

*2025-08-19, version 1.2*

This is a series I've played for many years, it's my favorite Gamehouse series, and I look forward to the new versions with great anticipation. Delicious, Primrose Lake, and Angela, are the reason I keep my Gamehouse Games subscription. I love them so much and play them all over and over! I especially love this one and Mansion Mystery, Road Trip, and Honeymoon Cruise.

### 1/5 — AVOID unless you love ads.

*2025-08-06, version 1.2*

I have played all the early Emily games, and they are brilliant. Was excited to see this one, but they’ve changed the format. After level 5, to keep playing, you have to watch an ad to play. So I’m deleting it. I play many games where I choose to watch ads, to get a reward, or progress in a level, but that’s my choice. This forcing us to watch in order to play is greedy and ridiculous.

### 5/5 — New style is growing on me

*2025-07-22, version 1.2*

I have been playing Delicious games since the very beginning. It took a good three games, but the “new style” of Delicious has grown on me. I am back in my happy place with this series. Thanks for continuing the Delicious story, devs.

### 5/5 — In Love

*2025-07-14, version 1.2*

I have been playing the Delicious Emily games since I was just a kid.. 15 years ago now. I always find my way back to them and have completed almost all of them many times now. The other Game House games are super fun too! Thank you for years and years of Emily, her friends and family and their paths in life!

### 3/5 — Good but

*2025-07-08, version 1.2*

The game is fun but the writing for the kids is so cringey and out touch, just a bunch of random slang that isn’t realistic at all and didn’t even make sense in the context . Idk just sounds like how a 40 year old think kids would talk but don’t have a clue? BET. Like what

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2025-06-26, version 1.2*

It’s a great game but for every level you have to watch a 25 second ad. Ended up deleting it, otherwise have to pay I believe 10 monthly to take ads off
