1. When setting up production, in order to increase the production volume of any product, try to match the ingredients of the same color. Thus, they’ll be taken from the conveyor earlier.

2. Travel as frequently as possible to available ports provided you’ve got enough cash on hand to pay for the trip, and all your factories are working, so you’ll have something to sell in the future.

3. When you’re at the market and trying to buy some ingredients, HAGGLE if you find the suggested price too high(the pricing rate is displayed when you mouse over each ingredient for sale). Some vendors are more affable than others. The best place where I most frequently buy ingredients is San Jose Theatre Market. This guy cuts his prices more often than other vendors do. And this is the closest place to San-Francisco.

4. When selling your products, you can haggle as well. The best place to sell your ingredients for the first time is the shop in San Jose as well. Sell frequently to Mrs Baumeister - and soon she’ll gladly sell you her own shop.

5. Don’t haggle if:

a). the prices are at the lowest rate;

b). you haggled at the same place several times before;

c). you see the vendor(customer) is in a bad mood(Pay attention to their facial expression).

d). don’t haggle with San Francisco confectionery shop(this is my personal impression). You cannot talk turkey with the local shop owner. I decidedly didn’t like this lady.

6. Buy new factories, and laboratory once your budget allows you to.

7. Always try to base your production on the newly-uncovered recipes.

8. You can buy a laboratory for inventing your own recipes. You’ll be paid more for the products that contain secret ingedients. If you cannot match the ingredients you have qwith the secret ingredients, go to the market and get yourself a couple of sacks of a different ingredient.

9. When you’re visiting a port on no matter what purpose, once you’ve complete your mission, check all the locations at this port.

10. When you go gambling with somebody, don’t be greedy and leave the game while you uncover 60% of the boxes.

I hope you’ll help me continue this list and share your strategies and inventions. I love this game since it gives you a spirit of entreprenership and is just so enjoyable. Yummm…

Dream Day First Home - First Impressions, Tips and Ticks

December 22nd, 2007 by admin

Glamourous, gorgeous, glorious. This is all I can say about Dream Day First Home. Hats off to developers! I think this game is the best embodiment of GameGlamour. It blends stunning design and graphics, soothing musical soundtrack, and smooth storyline.

In case you’re new to the Dream Day game series, all you have to know is this is the epic that depicts life of a married couple. Jenny and Robert were trying to prepare their wedding in the first version of the game(Dream Day Wedding), enjoyed honeymoon full of hidden object adventures(Dream Day Honeymoon) and now, in the third and the latest series of the game - Dream Day First Home, just-married trouble-seekers:) are trying to make their first house a home.

I don’t want to ruin your first impression about the game, so I won’t just reveal the location of every object on every level. Instead, I’ll give you more useful information about the game, so you can enjoy it to the fullest:

1. Dream Day First Home can be played in Software(timed) and Carefree(No time limitation) modes. You can switch between them at any time. The latter is recommended for the players who prefer moderate game pace and don’t want to replay the stages for several times.

2. On a level, be sure to pick GOLDEN NEST EGGS in addition to all the hidden objects. Once you get 3 of them on a stage, you’ll get an extra hint.

3. Hints are gorgeous. Click on one even if you don’t need it. A golden bird will fly out of its nest and show you the hidden item. It’s worth seeing.

4. There is no need finding all items on every room of the stage. The number of clues to find to complete a stage is displayed above the item list.

Download Dream Day First Home

5. Once you complete a level, you’ll be asked to play one of three Attic puzzles - Fix-R-Upper, Puzzle Garden, Perfect Match. In Fix-R-Upper, you’re to create a design for furniture items. In Puzzle Garden, the point is to find and click two corresponding tiles. In Perfect Match, you’re to click on two identical cards - and they’ll be removed. The point is to clear the playing field.

6. Another gorgeous feature is Choose a Story levels. While playing them, you’re to determine the way the things will go for Jenny and Robert. But no matter how dangerous a story may sound in the beginning, it will always have a happy ending.

7. After you successfully complete Choose a Story level, you’ll be awarded with a time-extending bonus. This is one of the hidden items that you’re to find on your next level in addition to all the items on the list. So, don’t forget to find it.
8. Homeowner Crisis - those levels that are real challenge. The point is to find all the hidden clues as soon as possible.

In the end, I’d like to emphasize on the curing effect that Dream Day First Home had on my nerves. When you please your eye and ear with classical musical tracks, go through glimmering rooms, find hidden clues one by one and watch this astonishing visuals - you just R-E-L-A-X. So, if you’re stressed out with your business, housechores, Xmas shopping, the best thing now is to take a sit, and help Jenny and Robert put everything in order in the cluttered rooms of their First Home. It turns out to be very stess-releaving.

Drop us a line when you need help with the items. We’ll gladly help you.

December 6th, 2007 by admin

Heidi says:

Maybe you think, that the world of fashion is absolutely amazing. Or quite the contrary, that it is absolutely not for you (like I do;)). Anyway it would be very interesting for you to find out more about it. And this is the perfect chance! In this new time management game we will help Maria (a young journalist for women’s magazines) to manage a fashion shop: Fashion Craze.

fashion_craze_big.jpg

And you have to be very quickly, if you want to keep your customers happy and earn money!

So Maria will be very busy, she will seat customers, take orders, collect fabric for orders and then finished clothes from hangers and bring them to the clients with accessories and take the money. Seems to be hard… and it is not all!

But like in every business, there are some secrets:

To make more money, make clothes of the same cut or color.

You can also distribute several orders in a raw.

Your clients have characters and preferences. Businessmen and women are impatient but like coffee and to speak with each other (just like men like to seat next to women or models).

If boys and girls are getting bored, give them a toy car or a doll to play with. But keep boys and girls apart! And models also;) .

Don’t forget to give small gifts! Your customers will pay more, if they will like them. And who wouldn’t like a nice unexpected gift? So, make a small gift to yourself - some pleasant time playing this nice game!
