How do new players earn chefs that bring jewels? There is no way to earn jewels unless you buy them with real money. I’ve been playing for many years and I barely earn the 500 jewels needed. This new format is not fun. The cruise ship at least had a theme to earn a variety of decor , gold stamps ( which are hard to earn) and a chance to get a chef by making recipes. Now there is no challenge and the rewards have not been worth it. I loved playing this game and decorating my restaurant but now without the cruise ship there’s nothing to look forward to. ### 4/5 — Fun *2026-03-04, version 1.8.1* This version is really fun ,I don’t particularly like that we have to wait for ingredients and parts to upgrade things .I play both this one and the first version and the first version is still my favorite .This version also has too many goals at one time and it gets overwhelming and confusing . ### 2/5 — Stuck game *2025-12-29, version 1.8.1* Recently downloaded and for a few days all was well but logged back in today for some reason it has my screen stuck portrait rather than landscape making the game unplayable. I have tried everything to fix this but nothing works ### 3/5 — do not work on ipad *2025-11-27, version 1.8.1* I don’t know what is happening to this game’s team or the company.the game even have wrong touch system.I went into the game and found out that many things you touch have no response.how can this works!three star for my childhood memories ### 3/5 — Games Broken *2025-11-23, version 1.8.1* I downloaded this game because I remember loving it years ago. I was excited to play but when I tried to load it the screen is frozen at a weird angle and I’m unable to play it . I am on an iPad don’t know if that’s the reason ### 3/5 — Given Up? *2025-11-15, version 1.8.1* Have the developers given up on this game? I have been playing for awhile and the catering events are impossible to finish when you have items to cater that aren’t in any of your markets ( like chocolate shavings and green apples), also keep getting item to cater that can only be cooked on stoves you have to buy with gems. Really disappointing…. ### 3/5 — Game update *2025-11-08, version 1.8.1* I’ve been playing this game since it premiered, but there hasn’t been an update in seven years and there are glitches when you load the game on the tablet doesn’t look proper and now my catering says I have to be at a level of thousand to do the catering event so I have to press the boat to get to the catering and there’s still all these things like the wrecked ship and the hotdog stand and some kind of food truck that all have been saying coming soon since 2014 since the beginning of the game, can you please update it? ### 4/5 — あ！壊れた *2025-10-27* 時々､動かなくなる事がある。 正常に接続してるが、 「インターネットを接続してください」と馬鹿げた事を表示される｡ 他は全体的に良かったです。 Todoリストに明らかに不可能なミッションが鬱 ### 3/5 — Update *2025-10-24, version 1.8.1* When will it be another update for this game. For some reason it’s not lining up correctly on my iPad mini. I notice it hasn’t been update in 7 years can some help with this issue please ### 3/5 — Be Warned *2025-10-06, version 1.8.1* The game has not been touched in 7 years by the devs. Tread carefully and don't spend any money! ### 2/5 — No connection *2025-09-28, version 1.8.1* My app isn’t working at all ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2025-09-27, version 1.8.1* I’ve played for years and enjoyed the game but a few days ago I started getting the message it is an on-line game and won’t open. I’m connected to wi-fi so that isn’t the issue. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — A Scam *2026-07-07, version 1.8.1* This app has stopped all updates and there no more cruises so it is best to delete it and never download from this company again any other game! ### 1/5 — New update? *2026-07-05, version 1.8.1* Every time I login there’s no update in game.

What a waste. ### 1/5 — Broken Game😭 *2026-03-03, version 1.8.1* The game is broken.. You open the game up & the stuff is sideways. Some of the stuff is cut off the screen. Half of the buttons don’t work. I think the developer quite working on it. Not cool, can someone fix it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ ### 1/5 — The worst game ever. *2026-02-07, version 1.8.1* I first logged in and it just glitched and couldn’t play. Didn’t work.
