  • story
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of Kairosoft games is often seen as repetitive, with many players noting that titles like "Mega Mall Story" and "World Cruise Story" follow similar narratives, leading to a lack of engagement. While the games are enjoyable as casual experiences, the predictable progression and absence of significant challenges diminish the sense of achievement compared to other management sims. Overall, the story elements are considered less compelling and innovative.

    • “It's a great casual game, but I found that you can't really lose and you'll end up after several hours with a fully decked out school/cruise ship/mall/spa, so it wasn't as rewarding as the manager sims, like Pocket League Story and Game Dev Story.”
    • “Angesteckt für Spiele von Kairosoft wurde ich wohl wie die meisten über Game Dev Story.”
