Don't buy this game(it will never be fixed) Here's why: Laggy Actions, take a little time to happen some things(like completing the levels) Blurry images on some items Texts have lines around them and some text bubbles just escape out Some buttons like the Skip button keeps on the screen on the level after you start Developers just wants to release the game and don't care about the user's complaints to fix the broken things(Only the achievements were fixed). I'll sure update my review if it gets fixed someday.
At the moment, I cannot recommend The Love Boat - Second Chances on Steam. Despite enjoying the first of the series, it is currently very buggy, and towards the last few levels, I gave up on completing the achievements, and mostly aim to complete the story instead. 1. Poor response time after clicking. Sometimes your clicks might not register at all, or skip if you quickly click on another item afterwards. 2. Delay between actions. There is a very noticeable delay between your actions, which makes the whole experience really janky, and not smooth at all. Checking out customers was also a very tedious process, it is very slow. 3. Impossible/hard to complete levels due to bugs. On one of the MAIN levels, you were required to submit only full orders. However, due to the poor response/delay, the items ended being submitted to the customers INDIVIDUALLY, causing the challenge to be failed. However, after quite a few restarts, it is possible to clear it. 4. Clipping issues/graphic bugs - During cutscenes, or levels themselves, the npcs and customers would clip through each other, and the background. There was also alot of inconsistencies between the character model and the ongoing story. [spoiler] Julie was shown to have an eyepatch on her model after a certain cutscene. However, her subsequent models during story and challenge levels do not reflect this change, even though it will show up again immediately in cutscenes after a level. [/spoiler] 5. Poor minigames design - The minigames were largely repetitive, most of which involve clicking 3 spots, and there is no change in pattern at all for any of the minigames. The 3 spots will always be in the same place, the luggage will always be stacked in the same way etc. Also I had difficulty with one of the minigames, where I couldn't click and scroll properly with my mouse. 6. Story - 6.5/10, I personally felt that the story wasn't as good as the first. Overall, the game was very tedious to play through, with the poor responses and delay that I had not encountered in other gamehouse games (though the first Love Boat was a little laggy for me too). Expert mode did not feel like a challenge at all, given the new ability to [spoiler]force out new customers according to your own pace[/spoiler]. This new feature also shorten the duration I usually spend on other Gamehouse games quite significantly. Hopefully some or all of these might be fixed in the future.

Выход игры в Steam откладывался почти месяц, и в итоге мы все равно получили абсолютно сырой продукт. Для начала геймплей выглядит отлично и интересно, про сюжет тоже ничего плохого сказать не могу (хотя меня хватило только до 10 уровня), НО: - Не успела запустить игру, как у меня тут же выскочили все достижения (и судя по отзывам, такая проблема у всех); - Игровой процесс о-очень медленный, большинство действий и применение предметов существенно подвисают; - Что это за шакальная графика??? В трейлере все выглядит отлично, на деле - мутное изображение, половина предметов расплывчата, иконка испытания на уровне пестрит угловыми пикселями. А проценты действия/испытания - их что, в пэинте подписывали? GameHouse, что с тобой происходит? Если не исправят в ближайшее время, запрошу возврат. На данный момент это не игра, а какая-то странная халтура.
I am unable to recommend this game. I purchased it, played a few hours and then refunded. It is extremely laggy, the click functionality is extremely slow and you often have to click again and again. The entire new design of the game just didnt work for me and I love all the Game House stories. Such a pity because I was so excited to play.
N年前美味餐厅系列带给我很多欢乐,时间管理游戏原来可以这么有趣!在各种平台上玩过这个系列的作品。时隔多年见到steam新上的游戏爱之船马上就入手了,玩了几关觉得有点失望,具体说说我的感受。一是游戏模式没有创新,那么多年还是跟以前一模一样的玩法,内容不够丰富,可升级的东西很少。二是游戏画面没有创新,还是保留多年前的感觉,玩起来像是在玩一个十年前的旧游戏。三是游戏优化做得不够好,在游戏中切出切入有可能出现文字乱码的bug,要重启才能恢复,算是比较低级的bug了吧。优点就是这个系列的游戏题材比较丰富,从餐厅、医院、时尚到现在的游船,题材多样性比较强,其次剧情也比较有趣,关卡难度不大但有挑战关卡增加了游戏的耐玩性,可以用来打发时间。希望作者可以在游戏模式跟画面上多下功夫,给老玩家们一些新的感觉,作为女生真的蛮喜欢时间管理类型的小游戏。综上所述,如果是没玩过这个系列游戏的玩家我推荐可以试试,玩过了就感觉不太值了,我是打折29元入手的游戏,还行吧。
It's fun but unresponsive. Not enough- so far- to make it unplayable but the lack of 'click and forget about it' responsiveness I've adored in some of the other Gamehouse games (i.e. the Delicious series of games) is not at work here. And that makes a game like this much less fun. I'm going to keep playing this for a bit as I think they capture THE LOVE BOAT property wonderfully (I've not watched it since I was a kid but it feels very on brand) and the core game loop is always fun if you dig these sorts of titles. Still, fingers crossed for a patch that gives it that buttery smooth play that some of the other GH titles have. Overall, 1-10 review after 20 min of play=6.5 gameplay; 8 for tone/theme.
The Catholic Boat! It's gonna be heading on out todaaaaay! The Catholic Boat! Time to throw all of your cares awaaaaaay! Get some hot christian action, that'll make you...
I have two words to describe this game "Frustratingly BUGGY"!! Almost every level had a bug, picking up an item more than 2 times just for it to register on your tray, the "Skip" button stays on the screen with every level too and some cut scenes didn't even have words (the speech bubble was a black blob). I'm really disappointed and not satisfied with the game in general, my expectation was crushed with the LACK of design and graphics. The characters heads are HUGE and isn't in proportion with their bodies, the characters and customers never blink and they look like dolls. Not to mention how ridiculous Sally and Francious is looking, at some point Sally's glasses was crooked and her nose too. The design in the customers's feet is a total put off looking like pointed toes, the blending in of the background is not even or blending at all. The strip on the beach levels have a distinctive black line where you can see how the slide of clouds are moving, I have no idea what the developers where thinking. The ending, well there isn't one. I got bored with it and to be fair I gave this game a chance, would love a refund. Please DO NOT buy this game, wasted money and time!!
This one is the most disappointing of all of these games. Despite being fairly new, it plays like a really dated game. It's unresponsive, buggy, and really finicky. I only finished the game to see what happened in the story, but it was a real slog.
Game feels very rushed and lazy. Lots of graphical issues that felt like the devs didn't even play this game to check if there was anything wrong with it. This is by far the worst GameHouse game on Steam. Gameplay was not good. There are 55 levels with each level having 2 extra challenges so a total of 165 levels. There are only like the same 5 challenges repeated over the 6 chapters while other GameHouse games have over 50 different challenges. There's 100+ challenge levels in this game btw. Some of the challenges don't even feel like challenges. Sometimes the game will bug out during these challenges causing the level to not end properly and having to redo the entire level. Story was meh. It was fun to see Sally and Francois from Sally's Salon to make an appearance. I got this game because I enjoy getting all the achievements in the GameHouse games. Completion is very easy for those wanting to get all the achievements.
