Score: 8
"Not bad"

I wish the player was able to dictate what got upgraded, because getting upgraded to a dual boxed chocolate machine during a time when everyone wants chocolate figures is about as useful as a tick on a dog's ass. The chocolate figure machine was slower, and seems like there was an ever-increasing chance for folks to ask for chocolate figures as the game progressed. I just noticed that I was getting expert scores for about 6 months, then 1 month I barely passed, then the next month I failed. Basically hit a brick wall there somewhere, and it was mostly due to standing around waiting for those darn choco-figures to build. Also, in this health-concious world we live in, seems a bit irresponsible to suggest sucking down a cup of hot chocolate is a decent way to get energized again. I kept waiting for the girl to balloon up 10lbs for every month she worked there. Interesting game, been done before, but this had charm. I think folks below me are being a bit overly critical. Their expectations are probably still set high from all the good flashes that have hit NG lately, thus they're sort of taking a "holier than thou" attitude with this one. Personally, I found it to be a good time-killer, and usually I'm not into these types of games.
