Diner Dash (2003, PC)
When Americans collectively gave up on work at the turn of the millennium and decided instead to fill their daytime hours with web videos and social networking, a new breed of games was born. Ignoring the science-fiction fantasies of teenage boys, these games sought to appeal to a broad swath of people. Apparently, the average cubicle worker fantasizes about running his or her own little diner. Diner Dash is happy to oblige. Ironically, this lunch-hour distraction is all about time management, seating customers, taking their orders, and bringing out their chow as efficiently as possible. With versions of the game available for practically every gadget that has a screen and several sequels continuing the craze, Diner Dash almost singlehandedly brought back food games from the edge of extinction.
