Pizza Delivery Boy
SCORE: 81
Pizza Delivery Boy is a
mix between Cooking Mama and Crazy Taxi. You create the pizzas the way
the customers want them. Then you speed around the town to the delivery
points. The faster you get them to their destination the higher the
price the customer pays. Every day you work, you get one off (editor:
well sort of). Days off consist of finding an errand to perform for
another business. These grant you additional recipe pages, as well as
more money.
There is a comic look and feel to Pizza Delivery Boy. Plenty of colors
in this fantasy world. The layout of the towns is absolutely odd in my
opinion. You can run over anything your size or smaller. Running into
cars or trucks will not do your scooter too well. This will also slow
you down as you are trying to get to the customer as fast as possible.
The pizza's look realistic to the point where I wanted to go cook my own
after playing this Wii game.
I really enjoyed how encouraging the chef brothers are in Pizza Delivery
Boy. They also encourage you to hurry up in getting the pizza's there in
time. The music is good in this game, and I found myself enjoying it as
it played. I did not find any offensive language while Pizza Delivery
Boy on the Wii. The special effect sounds are good, especially the timer
sound.
Majesco Entertainment made sure there is a lot of unlockable content in
Pizza Delivery Boy. You can play for weeks unlocking all of the content
in Pizza Delivery Boy. Part of the fun of this game is learning the
towns, and memorizing the pizza's. Different customers want different
toppings. Thankfully there is a hint which does take away time. Pizza
Delivery Boy joins a crowded casual field, but will appeal to fans of
Crazy Taxi.
The one gripe I have about Pizza Delivery Boy is the controls can be
loose at times. This looseness wound up giving me a headache on more
than one occasion. I also found multiple areas to get stuck in. I could
back up, but that cost me precious seconds. The layout of the towns made
little to no sense, especially having to figure ways to places on the
map in a hurry.
I know that Pizza Delivery Boy is a bit on the extreme side. This Wii
game did give me a new found respect for the job of someone delivering
pizza. Imagine trying to find all these people's houses and not knowing
where you are going. This job can not be easy. Pizza Delivery Boy also
teaches memorization, and taking shortcuts to get to the goal. I found
more good in Pizza Delivery Boy than bad, and feel this is a very
interesting mix of styles.
