Welcome to Papa’s Pizzeria —the deliciously frantic world where timing is everything, customers are unforgiving, and a single misaligned pepperoni can cost you a perfect score. It’s a cooking game at heart, but don’t be fooled: this is also a ballet of multitasking, memory, and pure hustle.
The Setup: You’re in Charge Now
Papa’s out. You’re in. The oven’s hot, the ticket machine’s dinging, and the line’s wrapping around the block. Your mission:
- Take orders from a wonderfully weird cast of customers
- Top each pizza exactly to their quirky specs
- Bake it just right—golden, not charcoal
- Slice with surgical precision
Simple? Sure—right up until you’re juggling six orders, the oven’s screaming, and a picky customer wants olives at 45-degree angles.
The Loop You’ll Love (and Fear)
- Order Station: Smile, nod, pretend you’re not panicking.
- Topping Station: Precision zen—pepperoni placement is a sacred art.
- Baking Station: Watch the timer like a hawk. One blink too long = crispy regret.
- Cutting Station: Geometry class with extra cheese. Symmetry is king.
Nail all four, and you’ll be showered with tips, praise, and the satisfying sparkle of a perfect score.
Customers: Adorable, Demanding, Unforgettable
From the chill regulars to the ultra-picky aficionados, every customer has a personality and a palate:

- The Perfectionist: If one mushroom is out of place, prepare for a lecture (and a low score).
- The Closer: Shows up late, wants it perfect, tips like a hero if you deliver.
Learning their quirks is half the fun—and half the battle.
