A free pizzeria game in your browser
Rush at the pizzeria is a short restaurant management game: you run the counter of a pizzeria on your own for a whole day. The phone rings, customers queue up, and the pizzas come out of the oven and go cold if nobody serves them. A game takes about two minutes and works on phone and computer, with no sign-up or download.
Three services follow one another: lunch to get the hang of it, the evening when things heat up, then Friday night, the big rush. Between services you equip your pizzeria: online ordering, pickup time slots, a self-order kiosk, a bigger oven… Find the combination that scores the most points.
How to play
- Pick up the phone when it rings: callers who wait too long hang up, and the order is lost.
- Tap the customer at the counter to take their order. If the queue waits too long, people walk out.
- When an order is ready, tap the bag or the customer to serve and get paid, before the pizzas go cold.
- You only have one pair of hands: one thing at a time. If stress gets too high, you have a meltdown and lose a few seconds.
Tips for a high score
- The score counts your sales, how happy your customers are and your stress: serving fast and staying calm earn points too, not just selling a lot.
- In the first service, learn the rhythm: follow the hand, it shows you what to tap.
- Online orders print themselves and arrive already paid, which leaves your hands free for the counter.
- With pickup time slots, online orders spread over the whole service instead of arriving all at once.
- A bigger oven helps in the kitchen, but the phone keeps ringing.
