It refers back to a previous game a lot, something about Emily having been in a TV show?? It is unfortunate that the developers have not made that one available, as I did not get most of the references. If games are going to be discontinued it is probably best not to refer to them in subsequent games. This game is not challenging, and you barely have to try at all to get expert on every level. However, even having achieved this, I only got about half the trophies, so that’s weird. It is a bit annoying that you can’t skip the intro if you need to restart or replay a level. There is also no restart button, you have to exit right back to the main menu and go back in and find the right restaurant and day that you were playing. But the game is still well worth playing if you are an Emily fan who is following her career and life. ### 5/5 — Toll! *2016-11-08, version 1.2* Ich habe es gerade durchgespielt und liebe es! Alles hat wunderbar geklappt. Es gibt nichts zu bemängeln. Top! ❤️🎅🏻🎁⛸🎄 ### 3/5 — Frustrating *2016-10-16, version 1.2* Love the Emily games, but this one is frustrating, keeps getting characters to stop the game to speak to Emily, makes it very frustrating, you can't skip doing the talking, why, why, why would you do this ### 5/5 — Me encanta *2016-03-25, version 1.2* Me gusta mucho Delicious y este en particular. Muy buenos y bonitos todos ### 5/5 — A nice holiday treat *2016-02-27, version 1.2* I was happy to hear that they would be releasing some of the old Emily games before the newer ones. I was most excited about this one. I love the holidays and love a holiday themed game. Emily didn't disappoint. It was nice to see her before Patrick and Paige, as a young woman. I liked that there were choices at certain points that you could persuade the dialogue. Though the holidays have made an appearance in another Emily, my hope is they do another holiday only one with Emily, Patrick, Paige,a fun the whole family. ### 5/5 — My favorite of the series *2016-02-19, version 1.2* If you are a new Delicious fan, keep in mind this is a very old game when we were first introduced to the character’s stories. The development team converted many of the older games (Taste of Fame, Tea Garden…), which were only made for the PC at the time, because of high demand from fans to do so. I can imagine it is very difficult to code an old, already made game to new, different medium without completely starting over. Gameplay is not as smooth as in the newer games (think Wonder Wedding, Honeymoon, etc) so you have to be pretty precise in where you click. I waited to purchase until they fixed the crashing issue and as of yet, I have not experienced this or the app quitting. Even though this is one earliest ‘Delicious’ games it is by far my favorite. I love that it is episodic and does not further her story. The holiday feel is infectious and I especially enjoy the levels with weather. The graphics and sound quality do not bother me as this game was released so long ago. All things considered, I think they did a fantastic job of converting ‘Holiday Season’ to IPAD/mobile devices. ### 3/5 — Feel like it was ripped off *2016-02-02, version 1.2* This is an old Emily game.. Just updated. I thought it was a new game just put out last year, but after I purchased it I realized I have played it long ago.This game is before Emily had Paige and is slow moving. Sad that I wasted 9.99 on it ### 2/5 — Emily series *2016-01-24, version 1.2* Have been a great fan of Emily series - great story plot n fun game. Am seeing a difference in the quality n programming of this episode -Holiday Season. Graphics not as advanced and receptive and clear as others. Pls see to the upgrade of graphics - game is not as fast paced and fun due to the graphics. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Yes *2016-01-20, version 1.2* It's awesome like always ### 5/5 — Love it now!! *2016-01-19, version 1.2* Much better now that there have been bug fixes! My favorite part about this game is that in some circumstances you get to choose what Emily says to certain questions she is asked throughout the game. At the end of the game, during the credits, the stats between you and everyone else who has played our shown to reveal what the majority of the audience chose. In my opinion, this makes the game a lot more personal and it gives you something to relate to amongst the other lovers of the Delicious series. ### 2/5 — Fix the crashes! *2016-01-12, version 1.1* Keeps crashing at the ice rink as everyone's saying! Far too much money to pay for constant crashes! The needs to be fixed! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not working *2023-09-26, version 1.2* I spend $10 and the window of the game wont pop up. ### 1/5 — Double charged!!!! *2019-07-11, version 1.2* I wrote a review days ago. I bought this game on my Note 9. Decided to download it on my iPad. Why was I charged again? I want my money back!! Thanks!!!! ### 1/5 — Poor *2016-04-20, version 1.2* This is not as good quality or challenging as the other Emily games, same as tea garden. Disappointed with this. Even if this is an old game that was updated then it should have been cheaper to purchase! ### 1/5 — Game constantly crashes *2016-02-20, version 1.2* I have every game of this series and I have never been so disappointed in it. I paid for and loaded this game onto my iPad because I have played this version on my PC.... After the "free" levels it starts crashing!! I've contacted them with no response. Don't waste your money if you are planning on playing this on an iPad or iPhone. You will be throwing money away. Feeling very ripped off by this company. ### 1/5 — Not bad for one of early Emily games *2016-01-13, version 1.1* As this is one of the really early Emily games it's not really as sophisticated as later games but I enjoyed playing it. I didn't experience the crashes some others mentioned on iPad Air 2 with latest iOS update (maybe I was lucky). UPDATE: 1/13/2016-game is constantly crashing now after ski resort area ### 1/5 — Soldi spesi per nulla *2016-01-12, version 1.1* L'ultimo livello non te lo fa giocare...e comunque niente a che vedere con gli altri capitoli della saga...lasciamo perdere va'... ### 1/5 — I WANT MY $$ BACK!!! *2016-01-12, version 1.1* I just wrote to gamehouse (see letter below) because I finished the first 4 restaurants with no issues and when I got to the last restaurant (the ice rink), the game crashes and kicks me right out of the app. I paid $10 for 5 restaurants and could only play 4. Not at all happy. I expect more from Delicious Emily's!!! Gamehouse, I purchased Delicious Emily's Holiday Season and I and many many other people have all had the same issue with the game crashing after the 4th restaurant. I am playing on my Apple iPad Air2 128gb and the game is version 1.1 with no available update. The graphics are not up to what I have come to know, expect, or love from the Delicious Emily's brand. The spelling and grammar are horrendous. You guys at Gamehouse should read the reviews at the AppStore - they are not at all positive. I feel like I wasted $10. After buying Delicious Emily's Hopes and Fears (which was Excellent!!), this game was a huge letdown. I would expect Gamehouse to make this right by refunding those that can not complete the game we spent our money on. If I had bought a defective item from Walmart (as an example), I would be entitled to my money back, and I expect the same in this case. Regards, Jennifer S. ### 1/5 — Crashes, cannot open it anymore *2016-01-11, version 1.1* After I finished the first level of the ice rink the game crashed and I cannot open it anymore. I cannot even play the previous levels. Terrible bugs. I love the Emily's games but this is too greedy. Not worth the money unless they fix it. ### 1/5 — UPDATE!!!!!!! *2016-01-11, version 1.1* Ich schließe mich den Kritikern an. Das Spiel stürzt bei der Eisbahn sofort ab. Müssen wir auf das Update bis Weihnachten 2016 warten??? ### 1/5 — Crashing *2016-01-08, version 1.1* Guys stop giving it more than one star if it's still crashing! One star until they fix it! It's so disappointing too because the Delicious games have been awesome so far...come on gamehouse, we're loyal fans of Emily! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pure Nostalgie *2025-11-09, version 1.2* Bei mir hat alles wunderbar funktioniert, ich habe es mit großer Freude seit langem mal wieder gespielt. Es ist mit Liebe programmiert und als alter Emily Fan habe ich die 9,-€ gern ausgegeben, weil es jeden Cent wert ist, ich liebe es 🫶 ### 5/5 — Bug fixes *2024-07-20, version 1.2* I love this game so much but when you get to the third location of the game if you touch the fireplace it exits you out of the game ### 5/5 — Another fun Emily story *2022-07-20, version 1.2* This is a very enjoyable game that adds to the Emily story before she knew Patrick. It refers back to a previous game a lot, something about Emily being in a TV show?? It is unfortunate that the developers have not made that one available, as I could not get most of the references. If games are going to be discontinued it is probably best not to refer to them in subsequent games. It is not as challenging as Emily’s Tea Garden, and you barely have to try at all to get expert on every level. The Easter eggs add a bit of extra fun. ### 5/5 — YAY *2021-12-13, version 1.2* Thanks for bringing back the game! Hopefully taste of fame and childhood memories will be next! ### 5/5 — Loving this game *2019-09-22, version 1.2* Omg I am loving this game - this is when delicious games were at their best - fast paced interesting gameplay , love it , bring back all the older games ### 5/5 — The beginning *2019-04-19, version 1.2* Awesome Emily’s one of first games ### 5/5 — My go-to comfort game *2018-01-17, version 1.2* This is an older game in the Emily series, but it is a sentimental favorite for me and one I enjoy playing again and again. The story is cute, and a lot of the original Snuggford characters make an appearance. I really wish Gamehouse could reboot Emily’s Taste of Fame so I could have it, too. ### 5/5 — Christmas is fun *2017-08-22, version 1.2* Love Christmas time for the family trees and the stars 😭 ### 5/5 — Superb! *2017-04-24, version 1.2* Keep it up, GH, love everything about your time management games! ### 5/5 — Love it *2017-04-21, version 1.2* I have paid for all of the Emily games and I can't get enough of them. But I'm running out of games to play hurry up and make some more 5⭐️ best game ever --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
