Yummy Drink Factory is a cartoonish game that puts the player into the awkward position of a drink shop owner. In the beginning of the game you get lost while driving in your car and you stumble upon a dark forest where there is an odd looking drink shop. You go inside and find an old woman there who insults you and you insult her back through a series of comic book style pop up balloons. After not tipping the old hag you are transported to a fairy world where you have to travel around and serve drinks to the fairies who live there as a punishment for being so rude to the old hag. The old woman shows you the basics of what you need to do and then disappears with a flash of light and your character is left to fend for herself.

As stated the game play is like a story board or comic book that takes you through tutorials. The graphics are decent and there is virtually no moving around, you just click on what you want to do and do it. The point is to memorize a series of recipes and serve them to your patrons in order to be freed from this fairy world. The faster you can serve drinks and accommodate the fairies the more bonuses you get. The recipes start off easy with one to two ingredients and then get more complicated as you progress throughout the game. The music in the game is lacking something and the sound effects in my opinion are boring at best.

Although Yummy Drink Factory is creative in its approach, the game seems stale with the amount of repetition that is involved. There seemed to be no real point to the game except to escape the fairy world prison, which in my opinion is not attractive to most people. Yummy Drink Factory is a game for kid's age's six to ten and with that in mind is a good game for kids to play, but for an adult there is really no point to play Yummy Drink Factory.

Nevertheless, I would have to rate this game a 2/5. It's good to keep small children entertained, but in the end I believe a child still would enjoy playing something else as this game would get very boring very fast. If you have children, download this game and test it out for yourself.
