The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players finding the item wear-down mechanic tedious and unnecessary, while others describe the overall graphics and controls as merely acceptable. Additionally, the penalty for leaving items scattered around has been criticized as an unhelpful feature.
“The graphics, controls, and gameplay are okay.”
“Also, as others have mentioned, the item wear-down mechanic seems completely unnecessary and makes the game needlessly tedious.”
“Which is even worse, since you get fined for having boxes laying around, which is honestly kind of a dumb mechanic.”

Users report significant performance issues with the game's graphics, requiring them to lower settings to "low" for smoother gameplay, even on high-spec systems. While some find the graphics and controls acceptable, the lagging problem remains a major concern.
“The graphics, controls, and gameplay are okay.”
“I had to turn the graphics down to 'low' to get it to run even partly smoothly and not lag completely every time I turn my mouse.”
“I find that this game lagging (even after I set the graphics to 'low') is pretty ridiculous.”
“My computer has great specs and I can run most AAA games with my graphics set to 'very high' if not 'ultra'.”

The humor in the game is largely criticized, with players finding it lacking and unoriginal, describing the NPCs as boring and frustrating rather than funny. While some players find the game addictive, they express disappointment in the absence of comedic elements and engaging characters, contrasting it unfavorably with other titles like Internet Cafe Simulator. Overall, the humor aspect is seen as a significant weakness.
“Though the game needs some improvements, I found it very addictive and funny.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, particularly due to the unnecessary item wear-and-tear mechanic that requires constant repairs, detracting from the overall enjoyment. While the option to hire staff is appreciated, the overwhelming maintenance tasks can make the gameplay feel more like managing a repair shop than an engaging experience.
“Also, as others have mentioned, the item wear-down mechanic seems completely unnecessary and makes the game needlessly tedious.”
“I can't recommend this game until it's less tedious. You can hire staff, which is nice, but when all your chairs have to be repaired, along with every poster on the wall, and your broom and trash can, it begins to make me wonder if I'm running a hookah shop or a future item repair storage.”

Users report significant stability issues, particularly with camera freezing that renders gameplay unplayable, preventing any progress or failure in certain areas.
“I can't use them at all because the camera freezes in an area where you can't see what's happening, so you can't win or even fail at them.”
“The game crashes frequently, making it impossible to progress without losing hours of work.”
“I've experienced constant lag and stuttering, which ruins the overall gameplay experience.”
