The game's story is not a primary focus, with users noting that it lacks depth and is relatively short. However, it offers a fun and energetic experience, particularly for those familiar with fast-paced work environments, despite some technical issues related to gameplay mechanics on the Oculus Quest 2. Overall, while the narrative may not be compelling, the gameplay can be enjoyable if the technical problems are resolved.
“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's 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.”

The music in the game is generally well-received, contributing positively to the overall experience, though some users find it a bit loud and suggest the addition of a volume slider for better control. Overall, the sound design, including music, complements the game's visuals and gameplay effectively.
“Its visuals, music, and formula are great.”
“I really have no complaints with this one aside from maybe the music is a little loud; a music volume slider would be nice instead of an on/off toggle. Otherwise, everything from the sounds to the visuals to the gameplay is forgiving in all the right ways while staying frantic and brutal if you don't keep up. This one is an utter steal even when not on sale.”
