A change in platform isn’t usually enough to justify re-reviewing a game, but in the case of Black Market Games’ Dead Hungry Diner we’ll make an exception. Released on the PC back in June 2012 (and reviewed by D+PAD at launch), this horror-themed time-management game was a title out of place; though its mouse-driven form was plenty entertaining, the button-clicking mechanics prevented it from achieving potential that was evidently there to be mined if only it could find its way on to a more suitable host: namely a touch-based device (a sentiment that we took pains to reflect in our review).

You might be wondering at this point why we’re presenting a history of Angry Birds when the title at the top of the page clearly says ‘Dead Hungry Diner Review’; the simple answer is that Black Market Games’ Dead Hungry Diner existence is analogous of the story behind Rovio’s me-too-catapult-em up. Dead Hungry Diner, you see, would never had existed were it not for a title called Diner Dash (from Gamelab). In fact, should you merely sample Black Market Games’ title, you would be forgiven for calling it a cynical clone were it not for the gradual realisation that, just like Angry Birds, Dead Hungry Diner finds its own voice through strong, characterful presentation and the introduction of fresh elements that build upon and develop those laid down by Diner Dash. In short, it strives for evolution over revolution, and there is no shame in that.
