Farm to Table

It has been so long time! This is the game that scratch the itch, I always wanted. This is a combination of homestead, automation, and resource management. So if you like games like factorio or satisfactory and want a more chill game? This is it!

I really wanted to love this game. The core idea is solid, the progression is satisfying, and it's obvious the developers have been working hard and listening to feedback. There are the beginnings of a genuinely great restaurant management sim here. My problem is that it still feels like it's missing that final layer of polish, and quite a bit of QoL - and I understand that should come as EA evolves. But I have yet to see a roadmap for this game, so I am left not knowing. The early game has you doing almost everything yourself before it starts feeling like a management game. Employee AI is improving, but it still needs work—staff priorities can be frustrating, and I often found myself managing the AI instead of managing the restaurant. Building also feels rough. Wall placement can be finicky, construction workflows are more cumbersome than they should be, and the opening hours spent operating out of an empty field don't really capture the fantasy of building and running a cozy restaurant. What I'd love to see is: * Earlier introduction of employees and automation. * More control over staff priorities and behavior. * Smarter, more believable worker AI. * Smoother building mechanics. * More atmosphere and immersion that makes the restaurant feel alive. This isn't a game I think should be avoided forever—quite the opposite. I actually think it has a lot of potential, and I'll be keeping an eye on future updates. Both Tavern Legends, Medieval Startup and Teddy's Haven are better IMO. (all in EA). For now, though, I'm refunding because I think it just needs more time to cook. If the developers continue improving the management systems and polish the overall experience, I can absolutely see myself buying it again.
