  • The graphics are bright and appealing, contributing to an enjoyable visual experience.

  • story
    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is described as formulaic and predictable, with familiar game mechanics and a plot involving a wealthy grandmother and a scammer posing as her long-lost grandson. While some players found the mystery engaging, the overall narrative is considered standard and easily forgettable, blending into the repetitive gameplay of serving customers and completing side tasks. Despite its predictability, the story serves as a continuation of characters from previous games, allowing for independent play but with potential spoilers for those who haven't played the first installment.

    • “How would I rate the plot of this game? 'Barely fecking remember it.'”
    • “Don't blame me, I've played nearly every single one of TM’s on Steam, and the plot is usually so similar that they are fused inside your memory into one.”
    • “So my grade for the plot is 'standard out of 10.'”
  • gameplay
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay in this title closely mirrors that of its predecessor, featuring the same mechanics and recipes, which may appeal to fans of the original. While the core gameplay remains intact, some design choices have led to increased frustration, particularly due to a lack of tutorials and the reuse of the game engine. However, improvements in store upgrades enhance the overall experience by providing noticeable benefits to gameplay efficiency.

    • “Of course, the gameplay is the highlight of this game.”
    • “In regards to the mechanics, it reuses the game engine from the previous one, and it’s basically the same game, yet featuring new levels and a different setting.”
    • “On a positive note, the store upgrades that didn’t seem to have an effect in the first game now have descriptions and indeed ease the gameplay, as they should - by upgrading the counters, stoves, and tables, your heroes move faster, the food takes less time to cook, and the customers leave a bigger tip - these all are clearly noticeable.”
    • “Not to mention, it's not even a reskin with new recipes - some levels have the exact same recipes and mechanics like the salads and coffees.”
    • “As for the gameplay, it's pretty much the same as in the first game.”
    • “While the gameplay is exactly the same between the two titles, unfortunately some poor design decisions make 'Claire's Cruisin' Cafe: High Seas Cuisine' a much more frustrating game than the previous one.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics have received mixed reviews, with some players finding the visuals too simplistic and lacking detail, which can lead to confusion, especially in later stages of the game.

    • “The artwork is beautifully designed, creating an immersive experience.”
    • “The visuals are vibrant and add a lot of character to the game.”
    • “It was fun, the only negative thing I want to say is that sometimes I can't really tell which food the customer is asking me to prepare because the visuals of them are too similar, especially at the last part of the game it is very confusing.”
    • “As for the artwork, it's simple and lacks detail.”
    • “Yes - if you are a big fan of the genre like me, and are willing enough to forgive the game’s poorly designed artwork and pathing.”
