"Betty Boop's Double Shift" is a puzzle game, developed and published by DSI Games. The game is based on the popular Betty Boop cartoon series.

Gameplay

The gameplay is similar to the "Diner Dash" formula. Betty must move from table to table in order to serve her customers in a timely manner, but if she takes too much time, customers will get angry and leave. After awhile, however, "Betty Boop's Double Shift" changes gears, and becomes a game more akin to "Elite Beat Agents". Betty gets called to the front of the diner to sing a song, and the player must tap the stylus on the buttons that correspond to the note she sings.

Reception

Critical reaction has been overwhelmingly negative. Nintendojo, which gave it a 3.0 out of 10, criticized the unresponsive touch controls, and the game's lack of originality. IGN came down on the game for being a clone of "Diner Dash" and "Cake Mania", and gave the game a 4.5 out of 10. [Harris, Craig (October 25, 2007).
