Started off great but now it wont keep my menu and it stops taking orders
It needs a lot of work. Tasks become mundane with no true sense of reward for trying to upgrade. Very grindy more than it needs to be especially without a story. Cant recommend at the moment due to the issues and lack of things to do. after a while. I will come back to it again later to see what they have done with the game.
game is very buggy. mouse occationally has 0 input on the game. orders get made that cant be picked up
Not worth it at it's current price and it's current state. I picked up my shelves to try and fix the red box problem where it wont allow me to place my product in that shelf square, Instead of a green indicator it is red. I picked up my shelves and all my product shuffled and bugged off the shelves. I have to start a new save this far in and I am not happy about it. I am abandoning the game until a fix is released fixing the awful inventory managing system. I would prefer the ability for modifications. If someone wants my MooCow Special with Mayo instead of Ketchup it should be an alternative choice when making the menu option. I SEE GREAT POTENTIAL IN THIS GAME. Right now I find myself looking for something else to play because all the effort it takes to remain organized because current bugs.
Thought the idea of this game sounded interesting so I gave it a shot. The gameplay is very unfun and despite it being early access since April 2025 the game has barely recieved any updates. It is very hard and confusing to figure out how to do anything, and at the end of the day if you stick with it and hire some people the goal is to have nothing to do. Except watch your horrendous employees pump out generic meals which you walk out to your horrendous looking customers who then pay like $3 for the meal. Also for some reason the customers know what your ingredients cost and if you charge more than twice what the ingredients cost you get no more customers. I played less than 2 hours but can't get a refund because it's early access I guess.
Сырая игра, насколько это вообще возможно. Ранний доступ во всей своей красе. Лучше подождите обновлений, прежде чем покупать или запускать её. Но затея интересная, так что поддерживаю.
NO, for me it's NO, this game is much too graphically heavy for my GPU, the quality of the graphic textures is much too high, I adjusted the game's graphic texture settings to: (LOW) and the game used 5.8 GB of the GPU, I was overloaded by 1.8 GB, because I have a 4.0 GB AMD GPU. 5.8 GB for the graphic texture settings, adjust to: (LOW), it's much too high, it's a big mistake on the part of the developer to have decided on such a high minimum. This game should have used between 2.0 GB and 3.0 GB of the GPU for the graphics texture settings, adjust to: (LOW). This would have been plenty enough for this type of game. The developer chose to use 4K graphic texture quality, it's no surprise that it was much too heavy. Because the game consumes 5.8 GB of the GPU on the graphics texture settings, adjust to: (LOW), which means that even if you have an 8.0 GB GPU, you will have to use the graphics texture settings, adjust to: (LOW), because your 8.0 GB GPU will not support the (HIGH) settings. I do not recommend and strongly advise against this game, especially if you do not have at least an 8.0 GB GPU, do not buy this game.
The game right now is barely playable. I had to exit the game twice without saving just to get it to work, and even then it lagged again. Food became unpickable after making the burgers once. I was also lost on how to prepare the food items. I did read the opening pop up, but i think visual cues and clearer instructions would really help the player.
My one cooking station keeps disappearing.... its rather annoying to come back to a game after saving and i have to continuously buy ANOTHER cooking station
Pros: Pretty fun game to try out as Restaurant Owner, do your own work to hiring staffs and get everything on track smoothly. Cons: I tried the Restaurant Simulator Demo version, things pretty smooth without the Cooking function. However, once I started with the Beta version, too many bugs. From changing Mouse sensitivity to Cooking features. I tried to hire a chef when I have 2 cooking stations and they just stand there and do nothing. Cooking is miss and hit, when I added Beef in my menu, I always got bugs when cooking Beef burgers. I hope they will patch all these and get a better version of the game.
