This is a really nice and fun time management adventure. I played all the Delicious, Fabulous and Heart's Medicine games and this one is also original and challenging.
You got the same interface as the latest games with Emily. You need to choose your customers, manage your upgrades and serve people as fast as you can which is the key to achieve 3 stars in the Expert mode !

Trophies and a lovely story with new characters complete the game . Ming, the cat, is very funny and adds to the challenge which i love.
Minus : I wish though that we could find some Hidden Objets and some Easter Eggs like the previous Emily's - i miss them...
Plus : You have a setting language option included. Nice :) Show less

Keep in mind when you play this that the creators are trying to get you into a new character with a different scenario/ story. You will play this just as you loved to play all of the Delicious Emily games. I find this a bit more challenging and thank god for a new story!!!! I can't do anymore spinoffs on Emily and her sister. WE GET IT! I was thinking they were going to have a sequel for every dang character. Now this is REFRESHING and DIFFERENT. Yessss, the writing is sometimes cheesy. So what. Makes me cheerful and happy and I like to play games like this that make my relaxing days lazy and happy :)
The game play is like of it's sister game (Emily). Only a different story line than the same ol' characters used time and time again. (You can't expect a author that writes novel/book/comic to write about the same thing year after year, that would be boring!!!)
The Story:
It's about a young girl named Cathy that helps her parents in their shop. She's a talented young, frightened but inspired young woman who's friends and boyfriend try helping her make her dreams come true.
Cheers!!! **drinks coffee** 5 stars to the creators for trying something new!!! Show less

I love Time Management games and especially the team who made the Emily series. I was not so sure after reading the reviews but I gave it a try anyway. Yes, the gameplay is very similar to the other games but I enjoy the storyline, especially Ming! I like it so much I bought the game and I look forward to what comes next!

Cathy's Crafts game is so much fun and the story very interesting, I became very involved in the story as well as the game itself, right from the start, I love time management games like these, we once again visit the town of Snuggford this time to meet Cathy and she is a very friendly, considerate person. A really great character she is working in her dad's hardware store and her parents leave on vacation and leave the store in her hands Cathy's boyfriend turns it into a Craft Store and the story takes off from there.
For me this is a very fun and wonderful game to play, due to the fact that I love the Delicious Emily game series so much and we do see Emily in this game yet only a few times, she only visits the store along with little Paige, the whole game is only about Cathy and her funny adventures with her family and boyfriend, also the customers and her best friend Kendra who helps with the Crafts store.
This game is a very great adventure because I tried the different levels in the game, three are available and the beginner level is easy, so I tried the next one and it was a little more difficult to achieve the three gold stars, and I moved on to expert level and that was much harder to get the 3 stars. So I believe that this is a good game for anyone who wants a challenge as well as a relaxing game.
Cathy's Crafts is very much like Delicious Emily's, and Angela's games yet for me I really like the character of Cathy a little better than Angela, for me Cathy's Crafts is much better than Angela's Fashion Fever.
This is offered as a Collector's Edition and I believe there will be many who feel that it might not be CE material because the game doesn't have a strategy guide or a game walkthrough, yet I feel it's worth a try to get the feel for the game and how much fun it is.
This is a definite buy for me because these games don't come around often enough and it has a very pleasant atmosphere and flows very well, if you are familiar with the Delicious series this plays the same way only with crafts and different characters.
I recommend this game for all who enjoy a great and fun game to play. Show less

This is a fantastic game. Same as the Delicious Series, only with new characters in Snuggford.
Great graphics, cute storyline. I give the Controls an A minus though. Clicking on some of the triple click items such as the yarn balls, could be a bit better. The mice could also be a tad bit bigger.
One reviewer noted that it is impossible to get 3-Stars on some levels. It most certainly is not. ...Show more

One reviewer noted that it is impossible to get 3-Stars on some levels. It most certainly is not. I do agree that some can be challenging though. Tip: It is a matter of choosing the correct items for the day and then chaining effectively. Please don't give up. You will have to play some levels multiple times. Which you'll have to do to get the Trophies anyway.
Sooo happy to see another one of these. I love the Delicious Series and have replayed them over the years. All except the first one, but hey, let's give the Developers credit, as they have improved a great Series consistently over time and keep offering new ones for our enjoyment.
Thanks again!! Great job!! Show less

This is very similar to the early Delicious Emily games. Some reviewers think that is a downside, but I believe the story, strategy, and complexity will evolve as the series continues (hopefully continues); just like Delicious Emily did.

I had a great time playing. Time Management games are a favorite of mine. It was fun. Our mischievous mouse was, alternately, very easy to find and very hard to find. Hitting the pause button was helpful when he was elusive.
Ming was a great added character. I found her adorable, but I like cats. Darn those "disliking" cat customers! I really hope Ming's, or/and her kitten's, character evolve to cause bigger hijinxs and cuteness.
I look forward to the next game in this series. Show less

I purchased this game and I absolutely love it. I do think it is the same caliber of Fabulous, Heart's Medicine and Delicious Emily's. I love how they created a whole new storyline. I love the gameplay, the storyline, the amount of levels....everything. I highly recommend to anyone who enjoys time management/strategy games. I would totally purchase a sequel as well.

I'm not understanding the poor reviews. I completed the game on casual with 3 stars on every level. Yes, it was very challenging, but I thought that was the point. I think too many people have grown so attached to Emily that they really didn't give Cathy a chance. The graphics looked the same as the Delicious series and the game play was the same. Cathy did move slow at first, but there is an upgrade to make her move quickly. When the level became too challenging, I moved to the next levels to get upgrades, then went back to complete the more difficult levels.
It was not CE worthy. Big Fish should be ashamed because I feel cheated. It was 60 levels, no strategy guide and nothing extra. However, I'm giving it 5 stars to make up some of the bad reviews. Play the game and see if it's for you, but wait for the SE version. Enjoy! Show less

I loved this game! It was so cute! I enjoyed looking at the pictures, and at the creative ideas the developers had for crafts. I also enjoyed the story, which surprised me a bit. The mouse was annoying to find, and the game was definitely challenging. But, overall one of my favorite casual games. I hope they release more like this.
