Countless clones have recreated the Dine and Dash experience in different settings. If you are good, customers start to flock in, the money starts flowing and, before you know it, you are looking to be the next world-famous restaurant magnate.ĭiner Dash has been one of the most successful game models in Internet history. You take on the role of Flo and run the restaurant, seating customers, serving food and making improvements to the restaurant. Released in 2004, Diner Dash centers on a stockbroker named Flo who has had her fill of the stress of Wall Street and starts over again buying a dilapidated old restaurant. Tapper inspired Diner Dash, the game that launched the task management casual game frenzy on the Internet. A good Tapper player keeps the taps flowing, slides drinks to customers, and catches empties to work his or her way up to higher more complicated game scenarios. Tapper is lightning paced, even before the can-can girls started dancing and the game launches into turbo mode. The game is filled with sliding mugs, dashing for tips and, if the player is not careful, drinks crashing to the floor. In Tapper, sometimes called Root Beer Tapper, the player took on the role of a bartender with several customers sitting at multiple bar tables. Known as Tapper, this was the precursor of today’s Task Management games. In the early eighties, a quaint game popped up in bars and arcades.

Game play is usually fast paced and hectic and great for those who love multitasking. For example in restaurant type task management games, players will seat customers, take orders, deliver orders, clear tables, take checks, cash checks, clear tables and serve more customers with similar demands. The game gets more complex as the player must serve more customers or perform more tasks in a short amount of time. The game starts out slow with the player only performing a few tasks at a time such as seating customers at a table in a restaurant and then taking their orders. Task Management games (also known as Time Management games) involve the player managing a variety of tasks at once, usually to serve customers in a restaurant or shop.
