During gameplay, customers will appear with an icon representing a specific pizza topping they are calling to order.
After the initial game levels, some percentage of the callers placing orders are actually criminals intent on hurting the pizza business.
Although it can be difficult to spot criminals amidst the fast-paced flurry of mouse clicks, their presence is often alerted by a distinct auditory cue similar to a police radio.
Such callers include a movie star who gives huge tips, a gossip talker who gets other waiting customers to change their orders to match hers, a clown who causes other waiting customers to change their orders randomly, a banker who collects tips for the player for a brief period of time and a monk who causes time to temporarily slow down.

[3] PC Zone states that Pizza Frenzy is "an extremely shallow if well presented dish", giving it a score of 45/100.
