The Yummy Drink Factory is a great time management point and click video game. I believe most children will enjoy playing this great fairy tale game. It has different modes and levels; you can choose easy and work your way up from there. There are is also a mode that allows you to play without the story line attached to it.

When you start out in the world you are lost. You find a small coffee shop and once inside you decide the elderly woman behind the counter is being rude to you, so you are rude back. She is really a witch and will send you into the fairy tale world to work selling drinks at a stand and makes you collect gems to upgrade your drink stand. You are trying to make this witch happy so she will give you the map to get back home.

In the game you get several different options of drinks. Some of the drinks that the customers request are bit on the nasty side. When you get the witch's village they ask for things like witch's brew (hot cocoa, green whipped green, slime juice and topped with warts). So I am not sure how the name of the game compares with that type of drink.

There is a store in the Yummy Drink Factory that you can use the gems you collect to buy different things to upgrade your drink stand. Each new city will give you different colored gems to purchase specific to the town type décor. In the witch's town you can purchase a garland of bats and can get a moon hot chocolate dispenser.

You can also earn different types of wands by completing a task that a customer requests (this is after your shop closes for the day). The wands you receive are the chocolate, coffee wand (for mocha drinks) and a peppermint, chocolate wand (for hot chocolate with peppermint) and more. Each new level you get a new recipe for your recipe book. If you master all of the recipes then you can even make your own.

The graphics of the game are good for a point and click game but the sounds lack a little. I also wish that there were more levels, towns, to complete. The game takes no time to complete the story mode and is really not very challenging for as many options as you are given.

I love to read and even more love to write. If there is something to learn out there I am up to my elbows in it. Researching just about everything is only one of my many interests.  View profile
