    You're talking about green on the screen where you can see other cafes?

    Mine just turned green too, did you just hit level 10? If so, that's probably what it means.

    I finally broke down and blew most of my 14 toxin on Stoogey the Clown. He seems pretty decent. Good fighter, fast, and probably better tips too.

    Mostly I go with guys that cost high cash but zero toxin. Foreman is very solid for me, and I just picked up a Fire Chief that's been working out well. I have two weaker Z's I need to replace sometime. A Veteran that I just haven't bothered to do yet and a Construction Worker that is my oldest employee and I just don't have the heart to cut him. Anyone in the Hardhat series seems worth having for their good fighting ability.

    Eventually I hope to save up enough Toxin to get myself a Star Player but we'll see if I can wait that long.

    Singling this game out for being cash hungry makes no sense to me. ALL mmo games have purchasable resources, the thing that makes them greedy is how required they are to play the game. I'm level 10 now and doing just fine without buying anything. You can keep Z's forever, so a one time purchase of $5 plus the Toxin you accumulate naturally will get most of your force converted over to "good" types of zombies as long as you don't go for all the most expensive guys (like the Sumo). That seems within bounds to me. I have absolutely no need to use Toxins for anything else. Money rolls in by itself, so unless I want to buy fancy decorations I'm fine there too. If you want to pump up huge cash so you can expand to a giant cafe with lavish decor then Toxin will help you get there faster. For anything else short of wanting all the most expensive guys it just doesn't seem that necessary. A single $5 purchase if you want more premium guys (and some of the cash ones seem quite good anyway), or $0 if you're fine just playing casually.

    The cafe would turn green if you tried setting the clock forward for more than 24 hours, not sure how to fix it without, again, editing the plist file. I think once it's green your facebook friends can't see your cafe so you can't trade things with them. Other than that, if you play on your own I guess it shouldn't matter? Maybe after it's green for so long it will turn back to normal? It's annoying for capcom to set penalty like that though.

    I think mine triggered incorrectly then. It turned green after I flew from St. Louis to Atlanta (causing a 1 hour time change, not 24 hours).

    If I'm being marked as a cheater/abuser just for traveling from one timezone to another that's a major flaw in the game. I did see a message about time change pop up in the game but didn't think it was going to affect anything so I ignored it.

    Edit: Just wanted to say that my cafe is back to normal colored. Don't know if this was due to it timing out (for a minor infraction) or because I downloaded the update last night and that reset it.

    Later updates of the game seems to have nerfed the cop but it seems to restored a bit of the cop back a bit. I'm guessing it's because it was a good 1 toxin fighter and was too good for the price.

    I hope they have a better balance in the next update.

    I just went to launch Zombie Cafe, and a message popped up that said I could get 10 toxins for buying "Herman the Hermit". I clicked on the button provided and it took me to the app store entry for "Herman the Hermit" (which costs $0.99). Now when it comes to most "buy this app for coins/bonuses/other items" promotions, you need to buy, download, install, and usually launch the app once to get the bonus. However, after looking at the description for "Herman the Hermit", I decided not to buy and exited to home screen.

    When I relaunched Zombie Cafe, the game gave me 10 toxin and thanked me for buying "Herman the Hermit". However, I neither bought nor downloaded said game. Therefore, I just got 10 toxin absolutely free.

    The newest update gives you the ability to close your restaurant! All you have to do is tap the doorway, and the door will close, complete with a "Sorry, We're Closed" sign. Customers still inside will exit when they're done but new customers won't enter. Plus, any zombies currently cooking will continue to do so.

    By the way, when it asks you to install an app to get toxin, you don't really have to install it.

    Complete fail of an update.
    Guess the developers didn't realize you could simply place an object at the door to prevent people from coming in? What's the difference if "closing your cafe" lowers your star rating anyways? If you place an object at the door you even get the added bonus of the wahoos in your restaurant running around screaming their heads off. Man I love doing that.

    Anyone else having the issue that I have........

    Playing on my iPad, and 9 times out of 10 my friends list doesn't load. Sometimes it does load, but doesn't show people who are putting orders in, so I can't deliver them!

    Also, is there any way of syncing games across multiple gadgets, ie my iPad and iPhone?

    Cheers

    Resolved the friends issue. I had too many friends on my Game Centre. Zombie Cafe doesn't like it if you have more than 50, so I had to delete over 100!

    Still have the sync question if anyone can help?

    It takes really long, you just have to wait. Some people changed their time ahead 1hr and was green for a month or so. It's unpredictable I guess.
