Papa Louie Arcade (or Papa's Gameriawhat?the official name of the series from Flipline Studios) is an umbrella term for the arcade-style platform game series Papa Louie and its More Popular Spin-Off series of Time Management Games (itself known as the "Gamerias"), accompanied by the mobile-exclusive games Slider Scouts and Papa Louie Pals. Produced by Flipline Studios, all the games are set in a universe themed around food.In Papa Louie: When Pizzas Attack!, you play as the titular Papa Louie, who must rescue his pizzeria's customers from evil sentient food as he prepares to fight the nefarious Sarge. Games since the direct sequel, Papa Louie 2: When Burgers Attack!, feature new playable characters with their own weapons and skills, and new varieties of enemies as you battle your way to the point of confronting the new Big Bad, Radley Madish (whom Sarge was notably Demoted to Dragon for in When Burgers Attack!).The Gameria games have you working as a restaurateur of different restaurants owned by Papa, each dedicated to a specific type of food. You serve up a variety of customers with a hands-on approach to preparing the food, judging you for cooking and presentation in addition to ordering speed. You earn tips along the way, which you can use to buy upgrades for your restaurant, both to improve productivity and keep your customers entertained as they wait. You also earn a large paycheck every week, which can be raised through working up the rankings. Starting with Papa's Pancakeria, you can spend tickets you earn during your shift to play and win prizes in Foodini's mini-games in between days.The franchise has become Flipline Studios' most well-known one, and it's the game studio's longest-running and most-updated work up to nowadays, appearing prominently in most media on their website, including their blog. On the blog, many entry series are themed in some way after Papa Louie Arcade. The two most notable ones are Papa's Next Chefs, a yearly tournament set up by Flipline to find default chefs for every new gameria they're setting to release, and Kingsley's Customerpalooza, another (now-defunct) contest wherein fans submit their ideas for new characters in the series.

All There in the Manual
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_17ce80aa
comment
All There in the Manual: The actual games mostly involve simplistic plots, and much of the series' surrounding lore comes from side content such as Flipline's Flipdecks for it (the Flipdecks are also used for their other works) and invokedWord of God. It's especially the case of individual characters, most of whom have little characterization present in the games and are instead developed in the flipdecks, although their personalities and relationships with others remain pretty minimal.

Read the Fine Print
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_17d9043d
comment
Read the Fine Print: Implied in the intro of Pastaria while in a rush to book the only vacancy left in Portallini for the Romano Wedding, there's a note stating that by booking the spot, the protagonist agrees to the "terms and conditions" which they ignore, only to realise what they signed up for when they get their uniform, employee handbook and immediate flight ticket in the mail. In the intro of Mocharia, the flashy flyer advertising the job of the titular cafe's manager with many benefits (mainly rent-free housing) also has a very tiny note in the corner stating that the protagonist will also be the star of a documentary, which they don't notice until the film crew arrive.

Violation of Common Sense: Cupcakeria gives you an achievement for burning Santa's cupcakes. From Bakeria on, every game has several stickers that are also examples of this, including "throw away 5 fully cooked pies in one day", and various stickers that require you to fill your orders incorrectly.

comment
End of an Age: A Meta-related example. Due to the discontinuation of the Flash plugin on the internet post-2020, Scooperia was the last game to be playable on the Flipline website. The first game released after the Flash plugin was globally shut down was Mocharia, which is (alongside the following games) exclusive to mobile. A purchasable PC re-release of Freezeria, titled Papa's Freezeria Deluxe, was eventually published on Steam, though it has yet to be known if Flipline will do the same for any of the other games.

Dagwood Sandwich: Some of the Special Recipes in Cluckeria distinctly contain more than one fried ingredient, being the largest and most complex. You can also deliberately make and sell some yourself in the Food Truck mode. Also Played for Laughs in various YouTube videos about Burgeria where people intentionally make tall, nonsensical burgers in order to get the lowest score possible.

comment
Ascended Glitch: When making When Pizzas Attack!, Matt Neff and Tony Solary missed one enemy when replacing placeholder graphics, resulting in there being a single-appearance "Cheese Wheel" with a less anthropomorphic look than the other food-based enemies in the game. This has become a Running Gag starting with When Burgers Attack!, which has a lone Cheese Wheel added on purpose this time around. When Sundaes Attack! features a Cheesecake Wheel enemy.

Non-Indicative Name: Utah, who lives on Calypso Island (Freezeria's setting) despite her name being a landlocked US State. The same applies to her sister Nevada (who debuted in Cupcakeria), although at least her name makes more sense as her name means "snowy" and she lives in Frostfield. Downplayed regarding the "Cluckeria"; when Guy Mortadello becomes the first loser of the "Chicken Sandwich Wars", it no longer sells chicken sandwiches exclusively and offers pork, beef and seafood options as well.

comment
Boring, but Practical: The doorbell, the cheapest upgrade in any gameria in the series since the introduction of upgrades in Burgeria. It alerts you when a customer walks in if you're busy in some other station. Once you have it, it's easy to take looking for costumers coming in for granted, until you decide to go back and try out Pizzeria to suddenly find yourself losing order points for several customers because you were carefully arranging toppings and didn't notice them enter the pizzeria.

Early Installment Character-Design Difference
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_4348c929
comment
Even without counting the cruder art style and Early-Installment Character Design Differences throughout, When Pizzas Attack! qualifies in a lot of aspects towards the following platformers. While rescuing the customers is a fundamental task like in the later games, you can only play as Papa Louie. When Burgers Attack! (which has Papa unlocked after beating the Final Boss instead) gives you the option to play as the customers you rescue alongside the restaurant chefs you have from the start, and When Sundaes Attack! (wherein Papa is unlocked mid-game) outright has a customer as the starting playable character. In addition to rescuing the customers, defeating all enemies of a specific type is required to beat each level (the Pizza Monsters turn back into normal pizza and Papa has to carry each of them to the goal), while the sequels only do this for optional completion progress or more character unlocks. You can't Goomba Stomp the enemies, while in the sequels you can. Aside from his primary attack, Papa has a second one in the form of limited pepper bombs, which have to be either found in the levels or bought from Big Pauly; the sequels forego this by giving each character an unique attack method. The pepper bombs can also hurt Papa if the player is careless about their positioning, while in the sequels, no bomb-throwing character will get hurt by their own attack. Radley Madish is completely absent. Sarge (called "Sgt. Crushida Pepper" here) is the Big Bad instead.

Family Business: Papa's Pizzeria from When Pizzas Attack! and Pizzeria, which was Papa's first established restaurant in Tastyville. Roy's (the usual delivery boy until he became the player character of Pizzeria) Flipdeck confirms that he's Papa's nephew, and To Go! introduced Papa's niece and Roy's older sister, Joy, as the female default chef in Pizzeria's mobile ports (although she was eventually confirmed to be the true identity of Ninjoy, who first appeared in Freezeria before Pizzeria To Go!'s release).

Signed Up for the Dental
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_4c083756
comment
Signed Up for the Dental: In Hot Doggeria, the protagonist applied to work for the titular restaurant in order to get a free pass to baseball games, the tickets to which were bought out by Jojo. The protagonist of Donuteria only signed up to work at the titular restaurant since employees get special VIP passes for the rides, which they use to get on the Sky Ninja. However, the ride breaks down right before it starts and it's closed for repairs for a whole year. Papa Louie then reminds them that they still have a job to do. Inverted in Mocharia. Papa Louie plans on filming a documentary about what it's like working at the establishment, but the protagonist just wanted the job for rent-free housing; they not only had no intention of taking part in the documentary, but didn't even know about it until they were already hired.

Radley Madish is completely absent. Sarge (called "Sgt. Crushida Pepper" here) is the Big Bad instead. Pizzeria lacks a number of features people have come to expect from the later gamerias, such as shop upgrades and achievements (with the money serving the role of ranking up given to the following games' rank points). The interface is also slightly different; for instance, the order-taking button is below the ticket holder rather than above the customer's head. Those used to the later games' interface might get a bit confused when going back to this one. The game's mobile ports have the stations more in line with the other games, as well as adding in all mechanics that the most recent gamerias at the time of their respective releasesnote In the case of the To Go! port, at least the ones that were already adapted to such ports by then. had (upgrades, closers, achievements, choosing between a male default chef, a female one or a custom worker, etc.). Interestingly, both When Pizzas Attack! and Pizzeria are also the only games whose intros and outro (in the former game's case) are fully animated, rather than the slideshow style used in later games' cutscenes (which neither of the first two have in the middle of their run). A more mild example, but unlike all the other HD ports, Burgeria HD lacks the custom worker feature due to it being released before Wingeria.

Job-Stealing Robot
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_514491f
comment
Job-Stealing Robot: As clarified in a flipdeck dedicated to them (after being first implied in the "Guy's Last Chef 2017" joke tournament), the cooking jobs in Guy Mortadello's former restaurant chain were done by a bunch of copies of a robot model known as BotWurst, with Guy only needing at least a single human employee to maintain the robots at best, and even getting to sell grocery store versions of his food with them. They seem to be pretty effective in serving, as the chicken sandwich restaurant Guy later sets up in Cluckeria only required a single BotWurst to function properlynote Their flipdeck states that Guy used three BotWursts for the restaurant, but only one is seen in the actual game., although how well-received they were by Guy's customers is never stated.

All Your Powers Combined: Papa is the only costumer in the original Flash version of Pizzeria to order all the toppings available, giving him the most complex order in the game overall. Due to the topping palette in the game's mobile ports being too large to fit within a single order, Papa's order was simplified considerably for them.

The Goomba: Cooper is the first costumer the player serves in the original Flash version of Pizzeria, and, unlike most starting costumers in later games, has the simplest order in the game overall. Averted in both mobile ports of Pizzeria, where, in addition to him being unlocked later (HD in particular making him a late-game costumer), he has a more elaborate order.

If you choose to have a Custom Worker as your co-worker and you start the day again either due to a game crash or reloading due to a bad day, the game remembers your design for the Custom Worker and instantly loads them without you having to recreate them.

Big Eater: Many of the fat customers such as Big Pauly, Kahuna, Kingsley and Mayor Mallow tend to order large portions of food, though several skinny ones do, too. Some of Big Pauly's orders include a large hamburger without veggies in Burgeria, a large sundae cup in Freezeria, pancakes with lots of whipped cream and chocolate in Pancakeria, a kielbasa full of toppings with a large drink (this being Diet Fizzo) and popcorn bag in Hot Doggeria, and cookie sundaes full of Creameos in Scooperia.

Meaningful Name
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30
comment
Meaningful Name: There are several character whose names sound like their Trademark Favorite Food. These go from normal baby names made to sound punny (Olivia)note For an added bonus, the name Olivia roughly comes from the Latin word oliva, meaning "olive". to genuinely made-up names that people wonder whether their parents actually also love the food to even name their babies after them (Janana, Cherissa, Emmlette). Some customers from the series have color-inspired names, and their costumes will be littered with colors that match the character's names. Their colorful names may also indicate their characterizations. Such examples include Indigo, Sienna (the resident autumn lover), and Scarlett (the resident Valentine's Day fan). Rudy, the bassist of the ska-punk band Scarlett and the Shakers, is also a slang term for "rudeboy", a person who enjoys Jamaican-rooted music such as ska. The term itself likely originates from the song "Rudy a Message to You", which is about a rudeboy.

Punny Name: Come the confirmation of Joy as Ninjoy's true identity, the latter's name blatantly stems from a pun between "Ninja" and "Joy". The games feature two women called Mary and Sue. While it originally was just a coincidence, the fact that they ended up becoming an Official Couple means that the creators did notice the pun potential of their names put together.

Excuse Plot
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_70d8269d
comment
Excuse Plot: In the platformer games, Papa Louie and the nearby citizens get sucked into portal that leads to Munchmore, a food dimension where most end up imprisoned by Anthropomorphic Food who are led by Sarge in the first game and Radley Madish in the following ones. So it's up to the remaining characters to save them. Each Gameria begins with a cutscene explaining why your character is working at Papa Louie's latest restaurant. Most of the time it's them getting tricked by Papa or someone else (with Papa offering to help them in the latter case), but some games give another reason, such as: Willingly applying in Donuteria because they get a free pass on the popular "Sky Ninja" rollercoaster as an employee. Booking a stay at the restaurant in Pastaria due to not being able to find a hotel to stay at for the upcoming wedding between Edoardo and Olga. Applying in Mocharia because the job comes with rent-free housing. After signing the paperwork, however, the character discovers that they have unwittingly signed up to be part of a documentary called "Mocharia Life". Filling in for Papa in Paleteria after the protagonist wins a 24-carat gold paleta necklace from an event Papa was holding, only for a seal to cause mayhem on the boardwalk and winds up stealing it. Papa offers to get it back for the protagonist, but puts them up at the Paleteria at the last minute.

Big Bad Ensemble: In Cluckeria, there are three restaurant owners competing against the protagonist in the Chicken Sandwich Wars at Oilseed Springs, including the returning Guy Mortadello with his new Mortadello's Bird Meat, NuMarcus (who owns the Nucoop Fry Lab) and the Crumple Sisters (owners of the Crumple Family Chicken). Only the latter manage to put a decent competition with Papa's Cluckeria (apparently surpassing its food quality by a great degree), as the former two had their restaurants quickly shut down due to health problemsExplanationGuy continued degrading his food from his business practices back at the meat pie store chain, to the point of breaking health regulations. and a lack of fundsExplanationNuMarcus' restaurant was backed by a group of investors, who left him behind after seeing that its worsening performance wasn't doing them any favors, on top of NuMarcus eventually keeping their investments for himself., respectively. However, the Crumple Sisters end up losing against the Cluckeria by external circumstances too, namely due to legal issuesExplanationThey were discovered to have stolen a secret recipe Papa had left unused and applied it to their food.

Later entries introduce an optional second worker to take customer's orders at either the dine-in or delivery service. Also from Wingeria onwards, you can change the attire of your characters, regardless if they're default chefs or Custom Workers, with clothes and accessories you buy or win as prizes in Foodini's minigames. The mobile ports of Pancakeria give you a Custom Worker's pet to choose the breed and name of at the beginning, although you can't change them later.

Pizzeria lacks a number of features people have come to expect from the later gamerias, such as shop upgrades and achievements (with the money serving the role of ranking up given to the following games' rank points). The interface is also slightly different; for instance, the order-taking button is below the ticket holder rather than above the customer's head. Those used to the later games' interface might get a bit confused when going back to this one. The game's mobile ports have the stations more in line with the other games, as well as adding in all mechanics that the most recent gamerias at the time of their respective releasesnote In the case of the To Go! port, at least the ones that were already adapted to such ports by then. had (upgrades, closers, achievements, choosing between a male default chef, a female one or a custom worker, etc.).

Super-Strength: James, Rico and Captain Cori are capable of pushing boulders around in the platformer games. Special mention to Captain Cori, whose weapon is an anchor. In Papa Louie 3, Robby wields the anchor.

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Also counting as in-universe Theme Naming, each of the gamerias and their correspondent restaurants are named "Papa's —ria", with Taco Mia! changing the format's spelling a bit. For the platformer games, each has the subtitle "When [X] Attack!", with the X corresponding to a food that relates the setting with one of the restaurants ("Pizzas" for Pizzeria, "Burgers" for Burgeria, etc.).

While rescuing the customers is a fundamental task like in the later games, you can only play as Papa Louie. When Burgers Attack! (which has Papa unlocked after beating the Final Boss instead) gives you the option to play as the customers you rescue alongside the restaurant chefs you have from the start, and When Sundaes Attack! (wherein Papa is unlocked mid-game) outright has a customer as the starting playable character.

Trademark Favorite Food: In any given game, every customer (except for Jojo) has a preferred order that they'll ask for whenever they have the option, and a lot of customers have orders of similar nature from one game to another. Most customers that reference a platformer game's baddie in their outfit have what that baddie is made of as their Trademark Favorite Food.

A Simple Plan

comment
A Simple Plan: Freezeria begins with the protagonist seeking for a laid-back job at the titular restaurant located in Calypso Island as the place has minimum population. However, right after getting started, a boat filled with tons of tourists flocks in to the island, much to the protagonist's shock. Cluckeria starts with Papa pitching an idea to a prospective worker to open a chicken sandwich restaurant in Oilseed Springs where there's plenty of oilseed plants (rapeseed) growing for lots of cheap natural cooking oil, has tons of chickens for meat and due to being an out-of-the-way town, zero competition. After opening, however, three rival restaurants suddenly crop up and begin the Chicken Sandwich Wars, much to the protagonist's horror.

Previous Player-Character Cameo: With a number of the customers having also been default chefs, expect this to come up often throughout the gamerias. In the Parade introduced in Pancakeria, each pair of default chefs have their own parade ride that represents the gameria they were previously playable at (plus the ones in the actual game if the player has chosen them). In Freezeria Deluxe, there is a bigger chance that you might see two co-workers dining together. A prime example in the early game is Allan and Akari, who are workers for Mocharia.

Promoted to Playable: Every playable character throughout the series (except Papa Louie himself, Joy in Pizzeria To Go! and Yui in When Sundaes Attack!) was first introduced as an NPC. If their respective flipdecks are anything to go by, James and Doan (the male chefs of Cupcakeria and Pastaria, respectively) get the bonus points for having been hired by Papa before as a handyman and a graphic designer (which they later worked as onscreen in Scooperia and Mocharia, respectively).

By the Lights of Their Eyes: The main mechanic of the minigame "Hallway Hunt". Using the same gameplay style as a Shell Game, you're supposed to keep an eye on an indicated customer out of four before the lights turn off. You're tasked to follow said person's eyes until they enter a room, which you then have to select. Later levels make the minigame harder by adding unrelated customers mid-blackout to throw you off.

Shout-Out
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The maximum badge title for reaching over rank 65 is "Better Than Papa!". One of Papa Louie's two Halloween outfits is based on Michael Jackson's one from the "Thriller" music video, as clarified in an animated GIF that Flipline published for Halloween 2020 wherein he performs a Michael Jackson's Thriller Parody with several other characters who dress as zombies for Halloween. Tohru's Halloween costume is similar to Waluigi's outfit from Super Mario Bros., featuring a dark-colored overall skirt, a pink shirt and cap (similar to Waluigi's purple shade) and an upside-down "T" logo on the cap and gloves. Carlo Romano's burger order in Burgeria resembles a Big Mac. In Hot Doggeria, the badge for serving enough orders with Red Hot popcorn is "Some Like It Hot". Donuteria has the Pon de Ring donut from the Mister Donut franchise available as a seasonal item during the Sky Ninja Returns festival. Also from Donuteria is Alberto's order, which includes a Homer Simpson-style donut with strawberry frosting and sprinkles. Breakfast Blast is a clear homage to the clay pigeon mode of Duck Hunt, particularly in Pancakeria, where Pickle the dog or Cookie the cat will encourage/mock the player like the famous Duck Hunt dog. (They're replaced with Foodini for the minigame's appearance in Wingeria, and the game was retired in Hot Doggeria due to complaints from fans about its difficulty) One of the Ranks in Bakeria is "Keymaster". The header for the "Quinn's Q&A" post series on Flipline's website blog has Quinn angrily pointing at Matt and Tony like a certain bluffing defense attorney. During the the finals and winner anouncement of PNC 2021, Wylan B does the poses that Drake does in the Drakeposting meme. In the same vein, during the final cutscene for Paleteria, Toby does one of the same Drake poses.

Developer's Foresight
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_d24ed873
comment
Developer's Foresight: From Sushiria onwards, Vincent will normally be the one to deliver alternate outfits and coupons to customers. If said customer is Vincent himself, then Akari will be the deliverer instead. If this happens when the customer is currently in the order station, the player chef will instead deliver it, like in Bakeria To Go!. In Mocharia, where Akari is a default chef and thus unavailable anywhere else, Rhonda is the one who delivers the clothes/coupons to Vincent. This detail was added in the game's 1.0.2 patch; before then, the game would have crashed if Vincent received a coupon/outfit. Joy/Ninjoy will have a different placement in the parade depending on the identity she's currently in. If she's dressed in her vigilante persona, Ninjoy will walk alongside other costumers based on the customer award she has. Meanwhile, if she's wearing her regular outfit, Joy will join Roy in the Papa's Pizzeria parade float.

Anti-Frustration Features
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3
comment
Anti-Frustration Features: In most of the games, once you've earned a Gold Customer Appreciation Award from a customer, that customer shows up less often, which keeps the late stages of getting a Gold CAA from every customer from being a Luck-Based Mission. From Sushiria on, you can send a customer a coupon in the mail, which guarantees that they'll show up the next day. It's perfect for leveling up customers and achieving stickers pertaining to a certain one. You can't send coupons to closers or Jojo, though. Starting in Bakeria, if you're aiming for a sticker that requires you to serve a special to a certain customer, they'll still happily accept it even if they didn't order it, meaning that you'll still get a good score as long as you made it correctly. In Mocharia, while you still need to be alert for taking milk out of the frother before it's too late, the coffee being made will automatically stop when it's perfect. Additionally, because of potentially how long pouring out milk and coffee can take, they don't count as unskippable tasks like spreading ingredients in the final area in case an alarm sets off. If an alarm starts ringing while delivering food to a customer, the game will automatically cut afterward to the area in question to help try and prevent the food from being ruined. Starting in Pastaria, Santa will only come during the Christmas season. However, to make it easier to get his gold award, he starts with the silver award and comes every day during Christmas holiday. If you choose to have a Custom Worker as your co-worker and you start the day again either due to a game crash or reloading due to a bad day, the game remembers your design for the Custom Worker and instantly loads them without you having to recreate them.

Updated Re-release: Most of the Gamerias' mobile ports include customers, ingredients (including new procedure parts on a few occasions, such as chips and dips/salsas for Taco Mia!'s ports and pizza crusts and sauces for Pizzeria HD) and features that weren't present in the original releases. Papa's Freezeria Deluxe, a purchasable PC re-release of Papa's Freezeria, added in plenty of content that wasn't in the original Flash game or its mobile ports (in addition to retaining the one featured in the latter). Such content includes a more in-depth storyline involving a hurricane, the holiday system introduced in Cupcakeria, and breaking news segments alongside the food truck that first appeared in Cluckeria.

Art Evolution: The artistic abilities of the creators have steadily improved over the course of the series, starting with a large jump between the first Papa Louie game (which had a relatively zany art style) and Pizzeria (which delineated most of the style's look that we know today). One of the selling points of Bakeria is that it features all-new models for every character, especially ones who haven't been redrawn in years until that moment, such as Wally and Penny.

Sandbox Mode: A mild example with the Food Truck mode that first appeared in Cluckeria. Instead of having a customer give you an order to cook, you can whip up whatever recipe you wish, and someone will come up and buy it. You can even mix ingredients available on different holidays together. Although, everything is cooked/blended to perfection instantly, so it's not possible to serve anything burnt, raw or badly blended.

No Full Name Given: Most of the characters in the series are given a single name (usually their first name) or alias. Some of the few aversions include the Romano family, the Bombolonysnote Mr. Bombolony's first name is Dob, Wylan B is his son, Mayor Mallownote first name Puffleton, and Tony Solary and Matt Neff (both of whom take the series' creators' full names).

Disco Dan: Timm became one of these at the time of Taco Mia!'s events, when he left his legal partnership with Quinn to pursue a career as a professional dancer.

One-Steve Limit: In spite of the many human characters present with regular real-life names, none of them share a first name or surname with at least another one.

Decomposite Character: Despite Ninjoy already being in the Freezeria pack when the Pizzeria pack was released, instead of being added as an alternate outfit, Joy was added as a completely separate character in Papa Louie Pals.

Once per Episode: Every game since Taco Mia features closers - a type of customers that enter last in a day that have a tougher grading system. While the closer lineup tend to change every game, two customers have remained their closer status in all their appearances, that being Quinn and Jojo.

All Your Base Are Belong to Us: Flipline's April Fools blog post for 2017 narrates that Guy Mortadello has taken over the entirety of Papa Louie's restaurant franchise and replaced all of the employees with BotWursts. A fake tournament named "Guy's Last Chef 2017" (of a similar nature to Papa's Next Chefs) has the public vote on out of all the chefs that Guy plans to fire, who gets to stay behind on the BotWursts' maintenance.

 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4
comment
Video Game Cruelty Potential: You can, if you want, give someone undercooked, burnt, messy or low-quality food, or otherwise just something they didn't order. The original version and mobile ports of Freezeria, Pancakeria and Wingeria in particular have every customer take a bite of the food you served them before giving you their evaulation.

You Mean "Xmas"
 Papa Louie Arcade (Video Game) / int_fd497586
comment
You Mean "Xmas": In every gameria with a holiday system, real-life holidays are used in most of their correspondent months. However, there's also a couple of stand-ins: The July holiday in all games is either Starlight Jubilee or Starlight BBQ, which are both celebrated with red, white, and blue star-patterned aesthetics and fireworks. Both are clearly based on the American Independence Day, also known as 4th of July. The most common holiday for March is St. Paddy's Day, which has a slightly different name to St. Patrick's Day and the exact same aesthetic. BavariaFest is the Flipline version of Oktoberfest, except that is is celebrated in August.

Also counting as in-universe Theme Naming, each of the gamerias and their correspondent restaurants are named "Papa's —ria", with Taco Mia! changing the format's spelling a bit.

Pet the Dog: Papa Louie has some moments regarding of his employees misfortunes: In Cheeseria, he offers the protagonist a job at his new restaurant to help pay for replacement instruments after the original ones were stolen. They're eventually recovered which also ends in Guy Mortadello's arrest for larceny. He offers the protagonist of Bakeria a job after the store they originally signed up for shut down overnight. At the end, he gives them ownership of a replacement store of the same type. He offers the protagonist a job at the recently-opened Scooperia after they tell him about Guy outright robbing them. Guy is arrested yet again for the same reason, which leads to the protagonist getting their belongings and money back, as well as a golden scooper as a gift from Papa.
