Скучно, грустно и невкусно. Даже для любителя скучных и грустных механик, повторяющихся во всех симуляторах, из раза в раз, и умиротворяющих беспокойную натуру. Это всё равно слишком плохо, слишком грустно и слишком медленно. Нулевое развитие. Мистическая атмосфера посмертия только в роли кривоватой декорации, а за ней пусто. Вместо призраков сюда могли бы приходить лепреконы, сирены, русалки и кентавры, не изменилось бы ровным счётом ничего потому что это просто дизайн. Если он подкупает — не верьте и не ведитесь, дальше (бес)смертная скукота. Игре не нужна концепция с которой она никак не работает. Смерть выполняет ровно ту же функцию что тыквы, стоящие в супермаркете на Хэллоуин: пытается (неудачно) создать настроение. Нулевое количество интересных рецептов. Горячий крепкий кофе, горячий холодный кофе, некрепкий горячий кофе, некрепкий холодный кофе.. да, уровне на сто пятидесятом станут доступны флейворс, но доживёте ли вы? Не думаю, мы ведь умерли ещё в начале игры. А было бы неплохо заиметь если не бамбл и не мокко, то хотя бы эспрессо с геймплеем. Ничего хоррорного, ничего загадочного, и как симулятор это тоже плохо — пресные механики, вялые в исполнении и повторяющиеся из раза в раз. Ради разнообразия можно помыть полы тёмной шваброй на тёмной текстуре где вероятно есть лужа тёмной грязи. На тёмном, разумеется, полу, потому что если всё не тёмное — это уже не мистика и не стильно. Атмосфера теряется в первые несколько дней, так как она ничем не наполнена кроме симпатичного и перетемнённого визуала. Проект явно не доверяет даже собственной эстетике, останавливаясь у самого её края. Да и наличие кофе в целом вообще никак не спасает, он давно остыл и помер вместе с игроком. Между медитативностью и полным отсутствием событий — очень тонкая грань, а природа не терпит пустоты. Так что [b]месседж всем кози-крипи-ценителям[/b] — не берём, смело проходим мимо.
i want to love it, i think it's so interesting and right up my alley, but it's kind of annoying to play. if you try to pick up or place something, you pick up the wrong thing or it places in the wrong spot. i am pretty sensitive to motion, and this game is one of those that unfortunately makes me feel ill. also, there's not enough contrast in the game. even turning up the brightness doesn't help much with this issue. it's vert y dark in a way that is impeding to me; i know it is partly the "setting" but if the dirt was maybe even a different tone or something, it would be so much easier. it feels like an early access game still, but since it's not, my review is unfortunately negative. BUT, if the game fixes some of the accessibility and quality of life issues, i'll be back on in a heartbeat.
This game is cute and fun, but needs some major work done on it to make it worth buying. Moving items around can be a major pain and can cause glitches. The game is cozy... but to a point where it starts getting boring pretty quickly. The game only goes to level 13 so there isn't as much content as you would hope and at that point there's no real incentive or challenge to do anything more. It was a decently fun 10 hours worth of play, but I doubt I'll pick it back up again unless there's more added.
This game is so fun! It combines my two greatest interests: coffee and ghosts. My only complaint is that you can only receive shipments during business hours, which makes decorating the shop a pain because you need to play one full shift before you're able to place anything. Would love an update with more furniture (like couches!). But for the price and what it offers right now, I think this game is totally worth it!
Mixed review on my end, the game is fun! I will probably change my review if my main complaint get address....I did not know there were steam games that did not support cloud saving...playable on steam deck, but cant switch between the devices without having their own saves, very annoying. For most people this probably wont affect them, however, if something happened to your device your save is gone. Also just to add considering this is a negative review. There was a bug with the anomaly showing/stating one effect, but upon reloading the game and playing the day a different anomaly was displayed during the game play. Please avoid next part if you don't want anomalies spoiled. The anomaly listed at the top of the screen was "Customers will leave more dirt." What was actually displayed in game was, "Customers will only order the cheapest item." I was able to reload the game again to fix this issue, but resulted in me having to restart my work day as I wasn't prepped for that anomaly. Otherwise the game is fun and addictive, but could use some fixes. PSA: Why even with the return I still don't get ALL my cups back! Review Updated 7.11.26 (Negative -> Positive) Communication goes a long ways! The game is fun !
Don't get this if you want to play on controller. The controls are not typical and purchasing items is my little nightmare.
I'm in love with this game, everything about it. The style, the progression, be able to name your own brew. All the little elements are fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone that likes simulators.
This cozy game feels like it was made with heart and does a good job about guiding you into things. The progression system seems good so far and the atmosphere is really nice. Me and friends liked the twitch integration which is a fun extra touch
I love this game. Super easy and relaxing, so glad we can challenge ourselves and change modes from super chill to like having a real business. Just started only downside is carrying only one thing at a time when cleaning up. The tray does help a lot, but haven't gotten the dishwasher yet. lol
I am new to cozy games and I got this because I wanted to try a spooky cute game that I could use my controller to play. Most of the game play/movement is good for controller but I find navigating the shop computer on controller so annoying I switched to keyboard. I did normal mode first to see how it was, as someone looking for a low stress game this was super stressful because of timing and feeling rushed. However, so far, I did not mind having to deal with the anomalies and wouldn't have minded them on the chill mode. I bought this game on sale for $8 and I believe it is worth the money spent, very cute and has potential to be better.
