The Game:
Review 1:
The first Katy and Bob game was released way back in 2012, so long ago that we legitimately thought the series was already discontinued. It is now 2017 and Katy and Bob are back for a safari adventure! Can you help them run a chain of cafes in the local Safari Park?
Katy and Bob: Safari Cafe is a traditional point-and-click time management game. Each level has you running around the shop taking orders from customers, fulfilling them, and checking them out for money. The premise of the game is simple and it does not try to venture into unfamiliar territories; every feature of the game has been already done to death by other superior games in the genre. As avid Time Management fans, we found Katy and Bob: Safari Cafe to be disappointingly straightforward and the lack of mode selection also further brings the game down a notch.
The graphics in Katy and Bob: Safari Cafe are not anything to write home about. They are decent enough, but the artwork style and the color palette are incredibly outdated. For a game that took five years to develop, we expected something grander than this. On the other hand, the safari-themed soundtracks are quite charming and the sound effects are pretty much on-point.

Katy and Bob: Safari Cafe includes 60 levels that spanned across three different locations. The game also contains a standard upgrades shop and an antique shop, which allows you to buy skills upgrades with coins you earned from completing challenges. As a Collector’s Edition, the game comes with wallpapers, soundtracks, and achievements. With no bonus levels or any other substantial extra features, the Collector’s Edition tag is totally unnecessary.

Conclusion:
Katy and Bobs Safari Cafe is a colourful time management game with everything you'd expect of this genre. I don't usually enjoy this type of game, but this one kept me playing far longer than usual. I'd score it an 8 out of 10 for game play. Well worth downloading, especially if you like TM games.

Problems getting the game to work:
If you're having problems installing or activating or getting Katy And Bob: Safari Cafe to work please visit the FAQ's Thread HERE and read through the communities comments because sometimes fixes have already been posted, for example, a common issue seen since the Themida wrapper was introduced three years ago is that some community members installation of the game is blocked by their security (usually an error message is flagged for example 'The executable is corrupted' even though in reality it is not) because Themida code has been known to hide malware, so as a precaution some anti malware programs will block and even delete the suspect installation files even though they are actually free from malware. This issue can be solved either by rebooting your computer in safe mode with networking or a quicker method is to temporarily turn off your security software to allow the installation. In the almost 11 years theis game giveaway site has been operating there has 'never' been a game given away that was infected with malware.
If for any reason you want to contact the giveaway team, for example, you have a game to offer the community, or are unable to download the latest game or other issues that the FAQ's thread or these comments don't cover or solve you can do so HERE
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank MyPlayCity for giving away Katy And Bob: Safari Cafe and also to the game giveaway team, as always, for securing other ways to get free games.

I enjoy this kind of game. I have played the first few levels and found it enjoyable to play. The tutorial is good can be turned off at anytime. The game play is good and works well on windows 10.

Thanks. BTW, fellow giveaway visitors,
GOG is giving Witcher Expanded for free if you download Witcher card game.

https://www.gog.com/game/gwent_the_witcher_card_game.

"Subscribe & Claim" to drop The Witcher: Enhanced Edition for free

...........................................Moderator comment...................................

Thanks for the heads up. I applied for the freebie after downloading the card game, but as I already had The Witcher: Enhanced Edition in my GOG account I received a message saying that I could gift the copy to another GOG account.
If anyone wants the game but doesn't want to download the card game, which is a beta version, message me over in the giveaway forums with your GOG email and I'll pass the game onto you. If you are using the same email as the one you use for the gamegiveaway then just post a short message here as I can see your email in the admin panel.
