Flipline Studio’s Papa Louie franchise became popular in recent years, specifically during the pandemic when people are finding things to do. Well, if you’re like me who loves cooking games, you’ll definitely love this franchise as much as I did. It’s not a free game, but it’s not an overly expensive game, which makes it a great game, even for kids. Having been able to play all of Papa Louie’s games, I could tell that the difficulty levels across all games aren’t similar.
No worries though, this game is an offline game so you won’t need to have fast cable or fiber internet. What you’ll need though is a great strategy to complete orders on time and keep your customers happy.
Easy
- Freezeria
Freezeria is by far one of the simplest games in the franchise. You don’t need to cook anything. All you have to do is take orders, blend milkshakes or sundaes (I’m really not sure what it is), and add the preferred toppings of the customers like whipped cream and cherries. It’s literally that easy.
- Wingeria
This is one of my favorite Papa’s games because, well, I love chicken wings. The process is very easy—you fry, sauce, and serve. It’s a bit more hands-on than Freezeria, but it’s still one of the easiest ones to manage, especially once you get the hang of cooking, tossing, and plating the wings.
- Burgeria
If you want a classic, Papa’s Burgeria is a great place to start. I love how simple it is to grill patties, stack the ingredients, and serve customers. Sure, it can get busy, but the tasks are easy to understand, so you won’t feel overwhelmed. It’s a good game to practice your speed and accuracy.
Moderate
- Pastaria
I got frustrated the first time I played Pastaria because the pasta takes too long to cook, which led me to browse for streaming deals while waiting (yep, true story). So if you’re starting out and don’t have the budget yet for the speed-up, it’ll be challenging. Plus, aside from cooking the pasta, adding the sauce, and plating it with the right ingredients, you also need to prepare bread. There’s also a lot of multitasking.
- Bakeria
Bakeria is a bit more complex than some others, literally. We have to juggle baking pies, managing the dough, fillings, and baking times, all while making sure each pie is topped perfectly. What makes it medium difficult is the precision needed in each step, especially when decorating pies. It took me a little while to get used to balancing the different tasks, but once I did, it became really enjoyable.
- Pizzaria
I thought hard about where to put Pizzeria — easy or medium? Well, I’ve played a few games and realized that while it may seem super easy, it can get overwhelming because you need to place the toppings in the right place, cut the pizza as requested, keep an eye out for the timing, take orders, and more.
Hard
- Sushiria
I didn’t have a great first-playing experience with Sushiria. First, the download took ages that I almost looked for a new internet service provider. Then, once I played the game, a lot of things were literally going on at the same time. It’s not beginner-friendly, and it can be very confusing at times. You have to cook the rice, assemble the sushi, cut it properly, and serve it to the customer.
- Mocharia
I love coffee, alright. I love preparing coffee, I even had dreams of becoming a barista. However, this game makes me not pursue that career path anymore. Jokes aside, I found this a bit more complicated to follow at first than I anticipated. You have to balance brewing coffee, adding the right amount of milk and the type of milk, adding toppings, and preparing the cannoli that comes with the coffee. I often felt overwhelmed by the sheer number of steps involved. It took a few tries to get the hang of it, but once I did, I started to appreciate the artistry behind making the perfect cup.
Wrapping Up
The easiest Papa Louie Restaurant game in my experience would be Wingeria, Burgeria, and Freezeria. But, regardless of the difficulty level, all the games are fun to play and are worth every penny spent. I hope the developers release more games like these because for an adult like me who loves cooking games, I wouldn’t think twice about buying their game. Happy playing!
