The game is plagued by numerous bugs and glitches, making it largely unplayable for many users. While some updates have improved stability slightly, significant issues remain, leading to a generally negative reception regarding its stability. Players express hope for future fixes, but currently, the game's performance is a major drawback.
“It's super buggy and I could barely play it.”
“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 picks up new deliveries/items in store or shelves to move around.”
“Sadly, the product isn't even worth the early access price as it is just super buggy.”

The graphics in the game are widely criticized for being subpar, with many users reporting issues such as a fuzzy appearance even on maximum settings and persistent glitches that hinder gameplay. Overall, the visuals are described as janky and dated, contributing to a frustrating experience.
“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 the 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 circumstances of their store's acquisition and its abandoned state, which could suggest a more intriguing narrative that remains unexplored.
“The story begins with your store being acquired through normal means, but there's an intriguing mystery surrounding it. The fact that it starts off completely boarded up suggests a deeper backstory, leaving players to wonder if there's more to the narrative, perhaps involving a criminal mastermind with a side-hustle in the gaming industry.”
“For starters, the fact that your store, I assume, was acquired by normal means—there's no backstory to any of this. Maybe you're actually some kind of criminal mastermind with a side hustle in the gaming industry! It always starts off completely boarded up and evidently abandoned.”
“The story feels disjointed and lacks depth, making it hard to connect with the characters or care about their fates.”
“There are so many plot holes and unanswered questions that it feels like the developers didn't even bother to flesh out the narrative.”
