Parking Dash

Pinky1130 · 08:18 PM Nov 28, 2008

I was kinda on the fence with this one when I played the First Peek. I played the demo when it was released to see what had changed and I surprisingly really enjoyed it and bought it. Turned out to be a very fun, yet challenging dash game. However, the upper levels were kicking my rear, and I had to go back a little using a different strategy in order to pass the 4th level. The color chaining bonuses were a must in order to finish the game. The trick was to put a certain color car on a spot and then put the same color car on that spot for the chaining bonus, then quicly move it to another spot and use one spot for your chaining bonuses for each color. This did take a little practice getting it down. That really racked up the points and I was able to get expert on some of the more difficult levels that seemed impossible to pass without doing this. Still lacking expert on about two levels I think, which I'm saving 'for a rainy day'. Great game for those that like a puzzle/time management combo.

Parking Dash was so much fun. I liked the little touches they added to the game...Karma shaking her head after washing a car...the little hearts near a Lovestruck Guy...even Flo and Quinn. (And Quinn's car? I'd be embarrassed to drive it. LOL)

Parking Dash rocks but I don't know if the game sold well enough for Playfirst to go and make a sequel. I certainly hope they do because the game was innovative and different from the others...

Parking Dash did get a little monotonous around Chinatown. I was tired of sweeping up flowers and cleaning up cars.

When I first saw screenshots for the game, I thought it was Gas Station Dash or something.

I really liked this demo, but I did agree the game got monotonous (although truthfully find most casual games do, but that doesn't stop me from playing them!). However, I thought the concept was unique. I was truthfully getting tired of restaurant games, even though they are my first love!

cheetahben · 04:22 PM Jan 17, 2009

I just finished the game.

I want to take off the Businesswoman's oxygen helmet so she gets no air and DIES! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Here are some tips and how I beat this game on all expert:

I found in general that the more simple you keep things, the better. I played levels 1-40 when the game came out and managed to get expert. Tonight I went back to Parking Dash and decided to beat levels 41-50 and get all expert. I was surprised but I managed to do it- The first Dash game I have achieved all expert on. Below is my advice more specifically on levels 41-50.

*You do not need to use the nitro booster at all.

*You do not need to swap any cars at all.

*Make sure to keep making chains where you park the same color cars in the same spots as much as possible.

*Try to park the guy with the dog isn the back- It is a real pain to move him.

The customer that you need to watch the most is the limo dude. He gets angry the quickest. Also, you need to pay close attention to the cell phone dude and African American woman. Make sure you serve these customers right away or they will turn red and you will end up losing money from them.

Don't put cellphone dude's cars on elevators. Their alarms go off.
