The game is plagued by numerous bugs and glitches, making it largely unplayable for many users. While some players note slight improvements with recent updates, the overall stability remains a significant issue, with persistent graphical problems and gameplay interruptions. Many reviewers express hope for future fixes but currently find the game not worth its early access price due to its instability.
“It's super buggy and I could barely play it.”
“Sadly the product isn't even worth the early access price as it is just super buggy.”
“Few things wrong with the game such as max graphics is just a fuzzy screen and makes it look pretty bad no matter what setting you're on; the computer Xpower Z1 (highest priced computer) glitches the game and new deliveries do not come in anymore.”

The graphics in the game are widely criticized for being janky and dated, with players reporting issues such as a fuzzy screen even on maximum settings and persistent glitches that hinder gameplay. Many users experience stuttering regardless of their graphics settings, leading to a frustrating visual experience. Overall, the graphical quality is considered subpar and detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game.
“Few things wrong with the game such as max graphics is just a fuzzy screen and makes it look pretty bad no matter what setting you're on. The computer Xpower Z1 (highest priced computer) glitches the game and new deliveries do not come in anymore. Sometimes the game glitches and I can't pick up new deliveries/items in store or shelves to move around.”
“This game has janky graphics that stutter no matter what settings you select. You aren't given any type of clue as to what you are to do. However, it didn't take me long to work it out. Soon after collecting my first shelf and placing it, I went to turn on the computer (after finding the electricity box) and ordered a few items. I went to put these items onto the shelf, but I was unable to interact with anything in the inventory; I couldn't even click 'auto-fill' to move things to my hand.”

The story lacks depth and backstory, leaving players questioning the origins of their store and its abandoned state. Some users speculate about the potential for a more intriguing narrative, such as the protagonist being a criminal mastermind, but ultimately, the narrative feels underdeveloped.
“The story lacks any meaningful backstory, leaving players to wonder how the store was acquired and why it starts off completely boarded up and abandoned.”
“There is no context or narrative depth to explain the state of the store, making it feel like a missed opportunity for character development.”
“The absence of a compelling storyline makes the game feel hollow, as players are left questioning the motivations behind their character's actions.”
