New Duds for Cafe World Chefs


Decking out your Cafe World chef adds an extra little bit of you to your burgeoning food empire. Now the Cafe World team has added several new clothing options that players of the Facebook game can use to cater their chef to their tastes. From a traditional waiter outfit (also available in yellow, blue, green and red) to new eye wear including slotted red glasses to a mystery mask, the new options look to make your favorite preparer of food into a veritable fashion palette.

FishVille Strategy: How To Play, Level Up And Get Coins Fast

Getting Your Aquarium Started

To have fast success in FishVille, you will need to pay attention to your aquarium for the first few levels. Here are the 4 main goals in the order which you should achieve them:

1. Start adding neighbors (you will need 8 by level 10).
2. Get to level 4 so that you can hold 30 fish in your tank.
3. Get to level 8 so that you can raise percula clownfish.
4. Get to level 10 so that you can hold 50 fish in your first tank and buy your second tank.

Don’t worry about coins. You will have a lot of extra coins if you follow this strategy and don’t waste too many coins on decorations You don’t need to pay for decorations because as you add neighbors you should get plenty of free gifts.
Get to level 4 as soon as possible

This is probably the most important part of getting a good start because you will expand your tank to 30 fish.
Raise and Sell Fast Fish ASAP

The Mini Dart Gobi is the most valuable fish when you are below level 10. They only take 5 minutes to grow.





Don’t bother with Sardines when you get to level 6. Sardines grow faster, but for some reason they give less experience and less coins than Mini Dart Gobis. As a general rule, faster fish give you more experience and coins because they need to be fed more often. I’m not sure why Sardines are the exception to this rule, but stay away from them.
Lay more Gobi eggs = Get more experience!


The fastest way to gain experience is to lay Mini Dart Gobi Eggs, feed them right away, and sell them as soon as they grow to level 1. DO NOT wait and sell them at level 2,3,4, etc… even though you will sell each fish for more experience… you will gain more experience by selling level 1 fish over and over because you get 2 experience points for each egg you buy. Therefore, buy more eggs and get more experience by selling the younger (level 1) junior fish ASAP.
Add neighbors while you wait for your Mini Dart Gobis to grow.

Be sure to add at least all of your friends who already play FishVille. You will need 8 neighbors by the time you get to level 10 and people don’t respond to requests right away, so you might as well get started with inviting your friends to be neighbors while you are in between feeding sessions.
I can’t sit in front of the computer until I’m level 4

Well, that’s unfortunate.. you won’t level up as fast, but here’s the best thing you can do: Figure out how long you will be away from your computer. If you’re going to be away for about 4 hours, raise Shy Hamlets. If you’re going to be away longer (about 12 hours) raise Hawaiian Hogfish. As a last option, you can raise Scooter Blennies. Try to avoid these fish. Not only are they ugly, but they take 24 hours to grow… when you sell a Scooter Blenny, it only gives you 11% as much experience (per grow time) a Mini Dart Gobi would give you.
Percula Clownfish – The 8 hour shift




Once you get to level 8, you can raise Percula Clownfish. These are beautiful fish that work out great for most of us who have set work or school schedules… and some of us even get 8 hours of sleep!
When you get to level 10 buy a second tank ASAP

By the time you get to level 10 you should have somewhere between 15,000 and 25,000 coins. You only need 10,000 to buy your first tank, but try to save coins (as well as dollars) for your second and third tank. At level 10 you can hold 50 fish in your first tank! Try to keep both of your tanks on the same schedule so that they are easy to maintain. Buy fish according to when you can feed them and keep as many tanks full of fish as possible at all times.
With 50 fish in a tank, it takes time to sell them.

At level 10, Junior Mini Dart Gobis are probably no longer the most efficient fish to raise in your tank of 50 fish. If you are actively watching your aquarium, Let your Mini Dart Gobis grow to age 4, then sell them. With 50 fish in your tank this is the fastest way to gain experience, since it takes a minute or two to sell them. The Red Spot Cardinal is a good fish to raise while you’re at the computer, but working on something else and checking every 15-30 min or so. If you plan to check every hour or so, raise Swissguard Basslets. Raise Royal Dottybacks (16 hour fish) or Percula Clownfish (8 hour fish) while you are away.

Happy Aquarium vs. FishVille

Boasting 24 million active users, Happy Aquarium is clearly the big fish to beat on Facebook. Now Zynga's dropped its hook to see if it can catch that many and more with the just-released FishVille. To test the waters, we decided to fillet both into categories to see which aquarium game swims... and which one sinks.


Add fish, water and glass and you have a viable fish tank. Happy Aquarium's starter tank is barebones as players use coins to add plant, coral, rocks and other submergible treasures although five different sand colors are free. FishVille's basic tanks feature a eye-catching background and a must more simplified list of tanks accessories. While we were going to give the category to FishVille because Happy Aquarium's eye-pleasing backgrounds are purchased with Pearls (earned but easier to buy with real money)... but FishVille's backgrounds are "Coming Soon." Happy Aquarium takes the candy by offering one awesome feature, full-screen play.

Winner: Happy Aquarium


Fish need food to grow and both games deal with those morsels in very different ways. Happy Aquarium requires players to purchase food whereas FishVille offers the ultimate in fish buffets, free food. If you like feeding fish all the time, FishVille is for you. But we like Happy Aquarium's 3 Day Feeder option that lets us kick back to watch and sell fish instead of feeding them all the time. But that options comes with a real price... you have to buy it with real money.

Winner: FishVille
Buying Fish



Selecting fish is never an easy task. Will they thrive? How long until they mature? How much can I sell them for? All are obvious questions. Happy Aquarium takes the less is more approach here by merely showing off the fish you can buy and how much it will cost. FishVille decided to answer all the big questions right up front as it lists the fish's name, time to maturity and how much money it will sell for.

Winner: FishVille

Selling Fish



Fish mean profit and making sure you make the most money and experience points is essential to continued growth. Yet this is where Zynga's FishVille packs in all the info you'll need to know before selling your fish.

Winner: FishVille

Fun



While FishVille is newer, the gameplay is a bit closer to real fish tanks. You feed the fish, they swim around and you repeat the whole process again until you sell them or they die. But Happy Aquarium has a fin up on its competitor by allowing you to tap on the glass, coaxing two fish to mate and a training mode where you avoid water hazards for coin and points (and gets better as you teach them tricks).

Winner: Happy Aquarium


The Verdict: FishVille
Despite Happy Aquarium's clear dominance of the Fun category, FishVille feels like the result of Zynga really understanding the parts of its older games and how to make them better. Is this verdict set in stone? No way. CrowdStar really has a great product in Happy Aquarium, one that with a few refinements, might turn Zynga's next big tuna into chum.


P.S.: I'd like to gave props to Zynga for supplying this week's best way to humiliate a co-worker. I'm sooo going to make this into a T-shirt for the Christmas party.
