Pets Galore!
Are you an animal lover? If you're a living, breathing human being with a soul, chances are that you are. Who can resist the cuddliness of kittens or the loyalty of dogs? Heck, even fish and birds have their charms. Everyone loves pets, whether your a little lonely and looking for a companion, or you're looking to add another member to your family. Cute little animals bring forth compassion in everyone, which is what makes Paradise Pet Salon a title that will grab you right away and hold you hostage in its cuddly arms. Alright, I'm getting a little too mushy for my own good, so let's move on.
You find yourself in the shoes of a pet-lover with a dream: to someday own her very own pet shop. However, you're a little light on the financial side, so you'll have to earn some extra cash before you can become an entrepreneur. To get some money, you get a job with Pet Corp, an enormous pet store franchise. Working for Pet Corp, you'll make a lot of dough and also learn a little something about running a pet business.
It's pretty obvious from the start that Pet Corp is a big, faceless corporation. After you do a stellar job on your first day, the CEO complains that the pets left too healthy, and therefore will not be back for a couple of months. Because of this, you find yourself out of a job.
It happened a little sooner than you expected, but it looks like you're now running your very own pet shop!
Wash, Rinse, Repeat
If you really break it down, the gameplay found here can be compared to titles such as Diner Dash, where you'll be doing a variety of tasks for different customers as fast as possible. What's great about this is that it's a brand new game experience that won't take you long to learn!
As soon as you lose your job at Pet Corp, you'll be taken to a city map where you can purchase your shop. There's only one available at the beginning, but before you know it, you'll be taking over the city and giving those corporate bigwigs at Pet Corp a run for their money!
Once you purchase your shop, the real fun begins!
Make Martha Stewart Proud
One of the things that makes Paradise Pet Salon so fun and unique is the ability to completely customize your workplace. From the floor and the walls to the seating and the workstations, you choose what goes where in your shop. However, it's not all about cosmetics. Your shop must run efficiently!
The Meat of the Gameplay
The gameplay found here is both simple and fun, yet it can be surprisingly difficult. Customers will bring their animals in for different services (washing, grooming, etc); you must take those animals and deliver them to the proper workstations in the proper order. Once the animal has been serviced, return it to its owner in a timely manner to make more money. The best part is, you do all of this with simple mouse clicks.
Pet Lover's Dream
Pet Paradise Salon is an original and fun game that is perfect for those who love pets. The gameplay is both new and familiar, making for an excellent combination.
