  • grinding
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is described as cute and fun but features significant grinding, particularly for players seeking achievements. While it offers a relaxing experience with charming visuals, the repetitive nature of the gameplay can become tedious over extended sessions. Overall, it's best suited for those who enjoy design and farming sims, but may not appeal to players who dislike grind-heavy mechanics.

    • “Capybara Spa is cute, simple, and fun, but a bit grindy (especially for achievements).”
    • “Too much grinding.”
    • “Because of the nature of the game, it can get repetitive if played for long extended periods of time, so if you don't enjoy grindy games, then this might not be the game for you, at least not for long play sessions.”
  • story
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game lacks a traditional plot or storyline, focusing instead on simple, engaging gameplay centered around putting a capybara in a bath. While some players find the absence of a narrative refreshing, others express a desire for more goals and missions. Overall, the story aspect is minimal, with many reviews noting that it doesn't detract from the game's enjoyment.

    • “The story ended way too fast for my taste.”
    • “However, I think that note comes with a lot of time management/idle-based games given that they're not very (if at all) story-driven.”
    • “This is cute and simple, and oddly engaging considering there's no storyline.”
    • “There's no real objective, and no story line, it's just 'put capybara in bath.'”
    • “There is no dark backstory for you to think about.”
  • replayability
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's replayability is a mixed bag; while some players find it calming and enjoyable enough to revisit, many others criticize it for lacking depth and complexity, leading to low replay value. There are calls for additional game mechanics to enhance replayability in future updates.

    • “Very calming and replayable 10/10”
    • “However, the game has no replay value, and no complexity in capybara’s orders.”
    • “It’d be nice if more game mechanics were added in the future to increase replayability.”
    • “A cute but rather short game with low replayability value.”
  • optimization
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is a mixed bag; while it runs smoothly on the Steam Deck, users report performance issues when fully upgraded and criticize the user interface for lacking functionality, such as the inability to swap or move items during use. Additionally, the aesthetic customization system is seen as restrictive, with high costs for items and no full refunds for changes, leading to a grind for players.

    • “Also runs smoothly on the Steam Deck.”
    • “It's fine for decorating, but it's not fully optimized for that purpose: you cannot swap item locations or move items while they are being used or active, you won't be refunded full price if you want to change your spa's aesthetics, and some items are just way too expensive to use, so you will have to grind for a while if you want to use them.”
    • “The art is nice, but the UI is not optimized.”
    • “There were some performance issues once I had the spa fully upgraded and would step away to do something.”
  • stability
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's stability is mixed; while some players report experiencing bugs and a clunky interface, others have had smooth playthroughs without significant issues. The user interface can be problematic in smaller resolutions, but many find the game's charm outweighs these stability concerns.

    • “It's a little buggy and clunky at times, but it's okay because it is cute.”
    • “Bugs, glitches, and crashes -”
    • “The UI gets a little buggy, overlapping itself in smaller resolutions/windowed mode.”
  • monetization
