Excellent review. Lots of information, really lets us know how the game really is. Despite a few minor typos here and there, the writing style is very good.

9/10

Not bad. I have to criticise the abuse of commas and the lack of information about Burgertime itself (despite all the comparisons made to it), but aside from that the review is coherent and thorough.

8/10

I didn't know about this game before, after reading it I feel like I understand how the game looks, plays and feels from that review. That's what a review is supposed to do.

Congo Bongo meets Burgertime? How does that tell me about Diner if I've never played either. Also, the structure looks like an outline that was filled out. I don't need to be told what's background and what's introduction. I think I can figure that out on it's own. Aside from that and other errors, pretty damned good. 8/10.

This review prooved to me that any Burgertime clone can be great to play.

This review is done very well. The reviewed has a good amount of info describing each aspect of the game. The only problem is that people may not have played Burgertime, so a little more info on it would have been good.

9/10

I'm more of a geek. I like the extensive information. The more you can tell, the better the understanding a reader has. The review reads easy for me and I'm really impressed with screen grabs. Good review, good screens, and a good read. Good job.

8.5/10 :)

Not bad, but not a lot about what makes this game good. Lots of good information about the background of the game, but not much description about why it warrants a 10 for game play. Assumes a little much from the reader on the game play side of things too.

Score: 7

I'll give this one a 9/10.

Very well done. Good mix of information and enthusiasm for the game, great screen shots, competently written. I also prefer reviews of games that aren't as well known, because they "spread the word", and this review does a fine job of it.
