Launch of ‘Delicious 4’ : Casual Gaming’s Most Popular Series

Zylom has launched the newest edition of the popular restaurant series "Delicious". In this treat for our fans, named Delicious 4: Emily’s Taste of Fame, a person from the real world had the opportunity to play a unique role by winning a competition to become the real-life character of Emily in the game...and therefore become immortalised in a game that already sold 6,000 copies in the first month!


Description of Delicious 4: Emily’s Taste of Fame starts with an unfortunate event: Emily’s car breaks down and she wants to earn money to pay for the repairs. She takes a job as a waitress and that’s where the fun starts! The goal of the game is to help Emily take orders and to serve meals and drinks to the right customers. At the same time she has to serve other customers in the restaurant that may (and frequently do) need her help. A car mechanic, for example, gets into trouble when he almost chokes in his food and Emily’s on hand to help with the Heimlich Manoeuvre.


If Emily does a good job in the restaurant, she’s then able to go up multiple levels¦ each one revealing a different location, like a sweet shop or a restaurant. The ultimate goal (and final level) is for Emily to have her own television show about cooking. It’s a little like Masterchef, only much more challenging!


Delicious 4 uses the newest 3D-techniques for the design of all its characters – this technology is a first in the PC gaming marketplace. The development of a game like this takes a lot of time, but it looks like this extra work is paying off; the beta version was already received with extremely good results and the game is now the best selling game in the history of the company!
