- “I love the gameplay and customization of this game.”
- “There's a ton of progression ahead of us to work through, and the gameplay loop is a ton of fun.”
- “The gameplay is simple but allows for so much variety.”
- “Gameplay is dull and you barely make any progress.”

The graphics of the game are described as aesthetically pleasing and relaxing, contributing to an enjoyable experience, particularly in the context of decorating and managing a coffee shop. However, players have noted that the graphics can be demanding on hardware, leading to performance issues even on high-end systems, and there is a strong desire for more customizable graphics settings to optimize performance. Overall, while the visuals are appreciated, the optimization and flexibility in settings are areas needing improvement.
- “Beautiful aesthetics and a simple comforting game-style.”
- “The graphics are aesthetically pleasing; it's relaxing, and you can decorate your coffee shop the way you want (with some restrictions - I'd love to see more customization like walls, floors, etc.), manage employees, and have fun with friends.”
- “The graphics are extremely taxing on even the best computers on the highest setting, but the jump from high to medium changes the game so much when it comes to lighting.”
- “Slow motion, can't pick up things with a single click and the graphics are weird.”
- “Game is okay fun to play, but it's badly optimized. It shows low requirements; however, a 2080 graphics card runs at 95% and can stutter.”
- “My only request to the dev is -- please give expanded graphics setting options so that I can tweak the graphics according to my PC needs.”

The game's stability has received mixed reviews, with many players reporting various bugs and glitches that can detract from the experience, particularly during critical moments like customer transactions. While some users noted that the issues are not game-breaking and do not significantly impact gameplay, others found the overall performance to be unoptimized and tedious. Overall, the game's fun factor is overshadowed by its stability issues.
- “I'm really hoping so because while I love the idea of this game, it is way too buggy, tedious, and unoptimized in many ways.”
- “Great game to play with others, but as I've said, the bugs and glitches make it feel like you've been ripped off.”
- “It’s very buggy, and what annoys me the most is that it often happens when a customer pays.”

The game's optimization is criticized for being buggy and inefficient, particularly in the ordering system and customer flow, leading to frustrating gameplay experiences. While there is potential for improvement, many players feel that the current state hampers overall enjoyment.
- “There is some room for optimization, but in its current state, it's amazing!”
- “I'm really hoping so because while I love the idea of this game, it is way too buggy, tedious, and unoptimized in many ways.”
- “Poorly optimized and the ordering system doesn't work half the time.”
- “It could use a bit better optimization of customer flow, as even cranked up to having max customers, you get slammed with a ton of orders at once and then have nothing to do while they all eat, rinse, repeat.”
monetization
3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Players appreciate supporting indie developers, often feeling that the early access price is justified due to the developers' responsiveness to feedback and commitment to improving the game, contrasting this with larger companies that are perceived as prioritizing profit over player satisfaction.
- “I love supporting indie devs too, even when it's not fully worth the early access price. More often than not, they tend to improve the games a lot better, listening to player feedback, while a lot of big companies just ignore their player base and go for cash grabs.”
- “The monetization model feels exploitative, with too many paywalls that hinder the overall experience.”
- “It's frustrating to see a game that could be great, but is bogged down by aggressive monetization tactics that prioritize profit over player enjoyment.”
