The game's story is minimal and not a primary focus, with gameplay primarily revolving around fast-paced tasks rather than narrative depth. Players have noted that while the game can be enjoyable, especially for those familiar with kitchen environments, it lacks a substantial storyline and is relatively short. Additionally, technical issues on the Quest 2, particularly when using virtual desktop, hinder the experience, making it difficult to interact with items effectively.
- “Funnily enough, I have experience in a kitchen setting and as a Starbucks barista, and although learning the recipes for these drinks and foods is a different story, the fast-paced working is exactly what it's like working in this field, minus the skeletons and octopus trying to steal your money.”
- “It's not very story-based or long gameplay, but it's really fun if you're energetic and want to get it out in VR.”
- “The only thing I need help with is to drop the gun. I am using the Oculus Quest 2 connected to my PC. I have tried everything, even remapping buttons; no matter what I do, I cannot get my gun to drop once I pick it up, which obviously makes the game very difficult and unplayable.”
- “This game is good, but the thing is I play on virtual desktop with a Quest 2, and the problem with this game is that for some reason it does not let me drop my gun or any item like a weapon or special drinks. I don't know why, though, so if you're trying to play on the Quest from virtual desktop, you should probably not download this game.”
