The gameplay of "Chocolate Factory Simulator" has been criticized for its monotonous and tedious mechanics, with players finding the steampunk theme superficial and poorly integrated. Many reviewers noted that the repetitive tasks and lack of engaging content lead to a lifeless experience, while specific mechanics, such as temperature control and crafting, feel cumbersome and unnecessarily complicated. Overall, without significant improvements and additional features like a player-owned storefront, the gameplay risks becoming quickly boring.
- “I love the steampunk look along with the different mechanics of the game.”
- “Even though it was only the prologue, I'm loving the graphics and the mechanics of the game.”
- “It guides you through all the basic mechanics and sets off to create magic.”
- “The gameplay is just remembering an order to do chores, and that's it.”
- “In summary, the game fails to deliver an engaging or immersive experience, bogged down by tedious gameplay, superficial themes, and a lifeless world.”
- “Chocolate factory simulator is a job simulator/tycoon game made by someone who watched far too much of Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, so instead of modern-day industrial confectionery, you're in a steampunk-themed Oompa Loompa nightmare, plodding through repetitive jobs to make chocolates.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many praising its unique steampunk aesthetic and enjoyable art style. However, inconsistencies between promotional materials and in-game visuals lead to a disjointed presentation, and some players experience performance issues even on lower settings. Overall, while the visuals are appealing, they are hindered by technical flaws and a lack of engaging content.
- “I love the graphics and thematics of this game so much.”
- “Even though it was only the prologue, I'm loving the graphics and the mechanics of the game.”
- “Visually, their use of a newer format has really resulted in some significantly improved aesthetics, and that's something I hope to see going forward with other Playway releases.”
- “Furthermore, the game's visuals are inconsistent, with AI-generated artwork in promotional materials that don't match the in-game art style, leading to a disjointed and unpolished presentation.”
- “I think the vibes are there, but the art style feels a little off.”
- “The game is very cool, but I wish there was a way to make it run better because my PC isn't very good, and even with everything set to low, it's still hard to play. It would be nice to add a very low graphics quality option.”
monetization

The monetization aspect of "Chocolate Factory Simulator" has been criticized for being essentially an advertisement disguised as a game, charging $20 for what is essentially a demo. Reviewers argue that this practice misleads consumers and clutters the market, detracting from genuine game developers. Overall, the monetization strategy is seen as exploitative and not worth the investment.
- “The purpose of this advertisement is to slap down an eye-watering $20 USD on the full product, and I don't recommend you do.”
- “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
- “It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers; you deserve better than adverts.”

The game's story is largely criticized for being either nonexistent or unengaging, with players noting a lack of depth and coherence, particularly in quest mechanics that feel disjointed or overly simplistic.
- “No story.”
- “Has a story, but it’s boring.”
- “Also, the second recipe requires milk but doesn't pop on the go grab part of the quest like the other items. It's also kind of blah that the milk just magically appears; it would have been better to have it so you have to buy it.”
grinding

Players find the grinding in the Chocolate Factory Simulator to be tedious and unfulfilling, with many expressing that the gameplay lacks engagement and depth. While the whimsical theme has potential, the current mechanics make the grinding feel unnecessary and not rewarding, leading to a lifeless experience. Improvements such as automation options could enhance the gameplay and make the grind feel more worthwhile.
- “In summary, the game fails to deliver an engaging or immersive experience, bogged down by tedious gameplay, superficial themes, and a lifeless world.”
- “I think it is whimsical that you're going down this Willy Wonka route and into a steampunk style; however, I do hope that you have options to industrialize the cooking station, robots, etc. to make the gameplay more seamless and the grinding more worth it, because at the moment, the grinding doesn't seem very worth the grind.”
- “The designing of chocolate is a bit tedious if you want to put it in a grid arrangement.”
