The story series by storm8 is really a very addicting game. It can only be played online because it requires interaction with other players. 

I will detail the procedure so that you can avoid the mistakes I committed when starting to play this game. 

At first, you will be provided a small cafe with a few chairs and tables and two ovens. 

The first dish will be ready to serve and another ready to cook. 

You will also be given coins and gems. 

The customers will start arriving once you open the game. The happy customers will increase the smile tab. Unhappy ones will reduce the xp and thus affect the goals. So, always remember to have food stored on the counters. 

The first five levels are easy to achieve because you are already given coins to spend on small goals lke buying counters and decorations and stoves. After that, the next level is hard to reach and you do need interactive help from neighbors and community members. The importance of a Storm8 id is felt here. 

What is a storm8 id?

The story series is brought by storm8 company and each player is requested to create a small id or username with which one can invite others or become friends with any other player. 

Tips and gifts

 

 

Neighbors can be visited each day and given tips by tapping on the tables. The players can also be given gifts. We can also visit community members and leave tips. Leaving id on others' walls will help getting new friends. 

Why we need friends?

We need friends to help send us tips and gifts. Friends also help us by sending parts for building ovens. 

Never spend gems without thinking. I was given gems when I first started the game but lost a major portion of it when I mistakenly clicked skip goal. 

Gems are very much useful in expanding the place. So use it wisely. 

 

The goals

We are given a set of goals by the granny of the game and if we fulfill them, we get coins.

Each completed goal takes us near the next level. Buying wallpapers and decorations and seasonal furniture is also a part of the goals procedure. 

Expansion

The cafe can be expanded by using twenty gems or coins. I think we should wait before some time to expand because once we spend the gems, it is hard to earn it. 

Oven purchase

We are given basic ovens when we first open the game. So, try purchasing a different oven like the grill. Certain ovens are part of goals and can be bought only after being promoted to a higher level. 

Once we buy an oven, the tab is locked automatically and opens only after we reach a higher level. So, buy wisely. The blue, green and other color ovens are just like basic stoves and recipes are same. So, please do not expect magic like I did. 

Tips to earn more gems

If we cook a certain recipe consistently, we are given coins and gems as reward. 

Collect rewards

we get items when we leave tips or give gifts to others while visiting other restaurants. Such items can be redeemed for coins and xp or decorations/furniture.

I hope you enjoy playing this game. 

I play this to relieve my stress as I am into almost full time elder care and as many will know, it is  taxing both mentally and physically.
