How it feels

A relaxed, first-person cooking and management sim where you design menus and customize your restaurant at your own pace.

What players say

Players say the game is unplayable due to severe bugs like mouse input failing, cooking stations disappearing, orders that can't be picked up, and save corruption. Development appears abandoned with no updates or communication for over a year. Those who manage to play find it grindy and boring after a few hours with only three menu items and few upgrades.
