Papa's Wingeria

Papa's Wingeria is a game in the Papa Louie series. It's the sixth cooking simulator game (aka "Gameria") in the series, and is the sequel to Papa's Pancakeria. It involves making chicken wings with sides for the various customers that visit the establishment.

Plot[]

Chuck/Mandi/Custom Worker (depending on who you chose to play as) is at home watching TV when he/she hears a knock at the door. He/she opens the door to find Papa Louie and Foodini at the doorstep; the latter is holding a huge flyer that says that Chuck/Mandi/Custom Worker has won a trip to Starlight City. He/she happily accepts and is transported to the city by bus. Upon his/her arrival, he/she comes across a giant slot machine which offers a free spin. Chuck/Mandi/Custom Worker decides to pull the lever and wins. Papa Louie emerges to congratulate Chuck/Mandi/Custom Worker, who is ecstatic until Papa Louie reveals that the prize is Papa Louie's newest restaurant, Papa's Wingeria, meaning that Chuck/Mandi/Custom Worker now has to work there. Chuck/Mandi/Custom Worker begrudgingly accepts the position.

Gameplay[]

In this game you play as one of the Wingeria's employees as they spend their days working at the establishment. When creating a new save file, you can choose to play as either Chuck, Mandi, or Custom Worker - Custom Worker is a fully customizable character that you can style to your liking by choosing the character's body type, skin and hair color, and clothing. Each level constitutes one day of business at the Wingeria. During a day, a number of customers come in and place orders for wings and sides, and your objective is to create the food to their specifications. This is done through four different stations: one for taking orders, two for making the wings, and one for making the sides. When a meal is completed and sent to a customer, the customer will judge the food based on how long they had to wait for it and how accurately the food matches their order, and give a corresponding score. If a customer gives a high score, they will also give you a tip, along with up to three minigame tickets. The points you get from customer scores give you XP that goes towards achieving a higher rank, allowing you to unlock more of the game's content, and the tips can be used to buy decorations for your lobby and upgrades to make it easier to make the food. Meanwhile, the minigame tickets are used to access and play minigames of varying nature after each day; these minigames give various rewards including extra tips and new furniture if you win them.

The ultimate goal of the game is to reach a high enough rank to unlock everything. Aside from customers, there are two other ways to earn tips: weekly paydays and badges. Paydays give you a large amount of tips once every seven days, and badges are in-game achievements that give you a small tip once completed.

In addition to earning tips and points, doing well on a customer's order also gives the customer a star. When a customer gets five stars, they get a Customer Medal that causes them to give you higher tips when you do well. The medal gets upgraded every five stars; the first medal customers obtain is the Bronze Medal, then the Silver Medal, and finally the Gold Medal.

Aside from normal customers, you also have to contend with Closers; the Closers are a group of seven customers that are more picky about their food than normal customers, and will judge you more harshly when critiquing the food you give them. One Closer always appears as the last customer of each day (except for Day 1), and unlike normal customers, they don't appear randomly; each Closer is tied to one day of the week. On Sundays, the most judgemental Closer of all, Jojo the Food Critic, will visit the Wingeria. His scoring is even harsher than the other six Closers', and unlike any other customer in the game, he orders something completely different every time he visits. If you serve him well, Jojo will reward you with a Blue Ribbon award; the Blue Ribbon stays on your counter for the next three days, causing customers to give you higher tips during that time.

Minigames[]

Burgerzilla: Burger ingredients are raining from the sky, and your task is to use your bottom burger bun to collect as many ingredients as you can. Eventually, the top bun will fall onto your burger; if you collect enough ingredients to stack the burger to the required height by the time it lands, you win the game. However, if you miss too many ingredients, you lose. Each time you win this game, the ingredients' falling speed gets a little faster.
Hot Shot: Mexican food monsters run and fly across the screen, and you have to shoot as many of them as you can using a bottle of Mild Sauce before time runs out. If you shoot enough of the enemies by the time the game ends, you win.
Freeze-Putt: In this minigame you play a round of minigolf on an ice cream-themed course. Your goal is to get the ball into the hole in as few tries as possible. If you get the ball into the hole on or below par, you win. The courses get more difficult each time you win this game.
Hallway Hunt: You're shown four customers, each one standing in front of a door. You're then assigned a customer, and the screen goes completely black with only the customers' eyes being illuminated. The eyes will move around for a short while, leaving it up to you to keep track of which pair of eyes is your customer's. After this, the screen lights back up with all four customers hiding behind a door, and you have to pick one of the doors. If you pick the door your assigned customer was hiding behind, you win. The blackout gets more challenging the more times you win this game; extra pairs of eyes will start entering the screen to confuse you.
Breakfast Blast: Pancakes, waffles, and french toast fly across the screen, and your goal is to shoot a certain number of them before the time runs out. If you shoot the required number of foods, you win; the target number gets bigger the more times you win.
Customer Cravings: You're presented with a customer along with several orders, one of which is the customer's usual order. You have to match the customer with the right order; do this for five customers in a row and you win.
Pizza Pachinko: Your task is to drop a metal ball from the top of the screen into a field of pizza-themed obstacles in hopes of it landing in the center hole; if it lands in the center hole, you win. The placement of the obstacles gets trickier the more times you win this game.

Trivia[]

This is the first Gameria to have the Custom Worker as an option for choosing a character to play as.
- It's also the first Gameria where you can buy other types of clothing from the shop besides hats.
All of the Gamerias have a representative color on Flipline.com; Papa's Wingeria's representative color is orange.
