    180 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    27% positive mentions, 5% neutral mentions, 68% negative mentions

    The monetization approach is widely praised for having no forced ads and making ads optional, allowing players to enjoy the game without interruption while optionally watching ads for extra coins or rewards. Some users note recent removal of ad-based bonuses has increased difficulty, sometimes pushing players toward in-app purchases. Overall, it is seen as a fair and non-intrusive monetization system with a premium feel, though occasional glitches or aggressive prompts for spending can detract from the experience.

    • “Great game and no ads, which is refreshing!”
    • “In-game purchases are available but the game is playable and winnable without them.”
    • “No ads unless you want to for more gems.”
    • “Turning more into a cash grab, almost impossible to beat levels normally so you're required to spend gems which are also very hard to get if you don't spend any money on this game.”
    • “Every update is a cash grab, with players expected to shell out money left & right just to keep playing.”
    • “Now, apparently, ads were canceled. With the ads gone, you are stuck in difficult levels, and it's impossible to move on in the game unless you buy boosters, rubies, and coins.”

Some users note occasional issues with story progression, translation, and pacing, but overall the narrative is considered a strong highlight that motivates continued play.

    • “The uniqueness within each story arc — which includes the dialogues and the relations between each character — is a treat from beginning to end (especially for those story-focused players like myself).”
    • “Downloaded this a few days ago and this is already becoming a favorite game of mine among every game that has the same cooking gameplay mechanic, extremely fun, doesn't bore you, and super super generous with stuff to upgrade the kitchen, best part is that this game doesn't have interruptive ads and not to mention the storyline too, this one is a perfection in one game to me, bravo to everyone behind it.”
    • “The storyline and characters are cute as ever.”
    • “Like I know it's a cooking game, but there is way too much cooking for way too little a story.”
    • “The story line is long... often longer than gameplay.”
    • “The game is perfect; it has everything that a cooking game needs. The levels are challenging but way too challenging; they were kinda hard for me on 4th restaurant. I love the storyline but I had to delete it because it was getting very hard for me to continue.”

  • grinding

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding is enjoyable initially but becomes frustrating by chapter 4, as progression requires repetitive coin farming or spending premium currency. Additionally, currency changes in later stages make earlier funds feel wasted, adding to the unfairness.

    • “Lots of fun times... until chapter 4, where it suddenly starts grinding, since you can't move ahead if you don't double the coins by watching ads repeatedly or using diamonds to buy essential upgrades.”
    • “Accumulating funds after finishing Hawaiian restaurant was pointless and unfair after all that grinding to complete it, since the pizza restaurant suddenly changes currency.”
