Anna's Ice Cream

I played this game through RA Evaluation and I quit after 15min. I found it too frustrating early on by the numerous steps it took to get a completed icecream product to the customer. Also, that nasty monkey that's sitting by the conveyor belt!!! Lastly...maybe I need to see the eye doctor, but the mix of colours in this game is too hard on my eyes for pleasurable gaming.

I love TM games.. sadly this one didnt get my vote.... monkeys really shouldnt handle icecream...LOL .. .. I just didnt like the way it was set up...made chaining very hard..and you really could not premake orders.. to save yourself time

I really wanted to like this one, but it's too difficult for me, at least, so far. I was anxious to hear what you all had to say about the game. I got to about Level 5 and just could not get any further. I think it was the refilling of the ice cream, like someone else said, combined with the conveyor belt. Maybe it's poorly organized or maybe I'm just not very good at TM games. And, I agree, Princess Putter, that monkeys should definitely not be handling food. LOL BTW, have you played Toy Golf (or is it not that kind of "putter")?

steffwhitt,
Thanks, I will give that a try.

I'm about half way through and have gold on all levels so far, although about 3 levels I had to try again. I think you can get upgrades like table cloths and flowers to keep them happpier longer.
If you are fast enough and there are 2 icecreams with the same topping, you can click the toppping once and each icecream once.
I just wish she would push the 'speed up the conveyor belt' button BEFORE wlkaing back and putting the topping back.

I would love to watch you play this game, NZBloke! Or maybe someone needs to watch me and give me some pointers. LOL

Also, buy straws and little umbrellas. I add those to icecreams when things are quieter. I think the customers pay more when these are added. Also now have the music box and juggling balls for the monkey.
When it gets majorly busy, I click both of those to get people happy. While that is happening I just start making icecreams looking at left to right. Forget about speeding up the belt. I just make one after the other and with the monkey, (because I'm a bloke I can't multitask.... lol) I click the monkey and just click all the tables (starting at the angriest customers table). That way I don't have to think which icecream goes where. The monkey will go to all tables dropping off icecreams.

I did buy this one, because its the best of the "ice cream" time management games I've seen, even though its not brilliant. It does feel a bit too cutesy, unfortunate because it really isn't a kids game; its too hard.

It is very challenging. I'm half way round, and some levels I've played over and over to get an Expert score, and can't. I throw fruit to the monkey regulary and try and put treats into angry customers orders. But sometimes my head is just able to manage it all better on some days to others! I've got 6 colours of icecream.

It would have been a little easier if Anna could hold two things at once, or when she's got the icecream scoop in her hand, clicking on multiple cones on the conveyer will disperse more scoops of that colour, without having to go back to the icecream tray each time. And I'm confused why she has to go to the left first after I select the empty icecream be filled up.

Its not perfect, but its challenging and fun enough for me to keep at it.

PS : How I miss Ice Cream Tycoon's ice creams and its concept. If only the goals in it hadn't been so unachievable and interface not so blocky!

All hail Annas Ice-Cream

I think this is a cute TM game.

I like the monkeys.

I really think if you are not a TM junkie no you are not going to like the game.

I am TM junkie.

I am glad the producers of TM games make more challenging games. I would hate to have easy games.

One thing I like about this game. IS that when you run out of lives, you can still continue to play until the end instead of starting over. So the game gives you opportunity to finish game even if score is lower.

I hate when I can not finish a game. LOL I am still working on Fashion Fits and Chocolate Chase. But I will get them finished. LOL

I have not finished the game yet but hope to soon.
