How to Play
Help Roy run the pizzeria while Papa Louie is gone! You'll have to take orders, top and bake the pizzas, cut them to order, and present the finished pies to the waiting customers. The key to the game is multi-tasking: Can you keep up with waiting customers while you're topping pizzas and watching the oven?
Use the mouse as the primary control throughout the game. The four colored buttons in the upper-right will switch between "stations" (or screens).

Ordering
When a customer is standing in line, click "Take Order" to take the order. Roy will copy the order onto an order ticket. Once the order is taken, the customer will wiat in the "Pick Up" line in the back. If a customer waits too long before you take the order, you lose points! If you take a long time preparing a customer's order, you lose points!

Topping
Drag tickets to the side panel and click "Make Pizza". Drag toppings from the buckets onto the pizza. When finished, click "Into Oven" to bake. If your oven is full, you can click "Save For Later" to store the pizza.
Remember to distribute toppings evenly: If you need 8 pepperoni on a full pizza, put 2 toppings in each quarter. You lose points if you have the wrong number or wrong kind of toppings. If you put topping on the wrong portions of the pizza, you also lose points! When placing your toppings, divide the pizza vertically and horizontally -- not at an angle.

Baking
Watch the timer next to each pizza in the oven. When the oven timer matches the cooking time on an order ticket, click the pizza to remove it from the oven. TIP: Pizzas change color when the timer hits each mark on the dial.

Cutting
Click and hold your mouse on the cutting board outside of the pizza. Drag the mouse across the pizza to mark where you want to cut, and release the mouse outside the pizza to cut across the dotted line. When finished, click "Finish Order".
Try to cut as close to the picture on the ticket as possible. If it shows a vertical line, don't cut at an angle. If your cuts are off-center, you lose points! If some slices are huge and some are tiny, you'll also lose points!

Finishing
When you finish an order, the customer will look at the pizza and decide if you did a good job. If you do a great job, you'll get a large tip. If you do a poor job, you'll get a small tip -- or none! Icons will appear on the lower half of the screen to show your accuracy in each station: Waiting, Topping, Baking, and Cutting.
If you do a great job on a pizza, the customer will also earn on a star on their Star Gauge. Fill the gauge completely to earn a Star Badge for that customer and a bonus tip!

Customers
Each time your rank changes (by earning tips), new customers will visit your pizzeria! Roy keeps a file for each new customer: view the Customer File by clicking the "Customers" tab in the lower-left.
The File contains a portrait of each customer earned. Click on the portrait to learn more about the customer, and view their current Star Badge (if any). Keep leveling up to unlock all of the customers on your Customer File!
