When I read the title, Dairy Dash, I really got excited because I was hoping that it would be like those other games where you build up your business or something along those lines. In this one, you do the same thing and I have to say, it is definitely one of the best ones that I have ever played which is definitely a plus. It was nice to just sit back, relax, and play the game rather than do other thingsProbably not a good idea.

When it comes to game play, the game is very simple and very easy to understand. There are instructions when a new part is added and that really makes the game so much easier to understand. Add the really entertaining story line of saving your relative's farm' and the game play becomes even more fun. I felt, for a short while, that I really was making a difference for the farmer, even for only a second.

The sound is soothing and nice to listen to. There is not much to mention about it other than it is soothing. The one sound that you probably don't want to hear in the game is the rooster because it means that the mission is done. There were a few times when I was only a few hundred points away from expert and I had to stop because of the rooster. However, it's definitely got a real relaxing sound to it.

The graphics in the game are fantastic. I really enjoy the comics that appear when you start the game and then go from farm to farm. I think that they are wonderfully made. Furthermore, I think that the way that the different animals and farms really demonstrate just how fantastic the graphics are for this type of a game. The only thing that I would work on is not making the character's walk from point A to point B so square. It's as if they are making a right angle and it just looks a bit funny.

In regards to creativity, innovation goes with it. Simply put, it's a game like many others game; however, the innovating and creative part about it is the fact that more was added. I played a diner type of game and all you did was serve customers. In this, you take care of cows, sheep, plant things, try and sell goods at the county fair, and so many other things. It takes the running of a farm and brings it to real life. This game is definitely one of the top dash' games.

I highly recommend this game to people that are looking for a fun game that you can jump in to. It may appear to get repetitive over time; however, since new things are added in every level, it really does grow on itself. You learn to time manage in the game and it definitely is a game that I would purchase. It's highly recommended.
