Is It Any Good?
The silly horror-movie concept behind ZOMBIE CAFE is a fun one, but as a real-time restaurant sim, the game is sadly dull. Many so-called "velvet rope" games offer players a chance to speed up their games by spending extra dough, but often they make sure there's plenty to keep them busy without spending, too. Here, the game moves as slowly as the shuffling undead. There's simply not a lot of variety here. Watching zombies wait tables for several minutes at a time is less than thrilling, to say the least. Even the attacks on other restaurants grow tiresome by the second or third one. And it just feels unfair to have your restaurant's star rating go down while you're not playing -- which it will, since customers will show up, find no food, and leave angry.
