The game's storyline has surprised many players, who initially expected a simple school cafeteria simulator but found a well-crafted narrative that evokes strong emotions. While the story is generally praised for its depth and engagement, some players express frustration with certain quests that feel irrelevant or overly demanding, detracting from the overall experience. Overall, the narrative is considered a highlight, with players eager for future updates and additional chapters.
“Woah... I didn't realize there was a storyline in this game. I thought it was just a school café simulator, and I was amazed at how well-made the storyline is. It almost made me tear up honestly. I also liked the fact that you get tons of LP for finishing a chapter. I really liked that. Right now, I'm at chapter 3 part 1.”
“The storyline is fantastic! I didn't know it had one. This game has more than 5 hours of gameplay, truly great.”
“This game is very awesome! I like the main story. The final chapter from this game is so sad, but please make more chapters about what happened to Sarah after being kidnapped by Hitap.”
“What I don't like about this game is that there are nonsensical missions like giving this person some money or buying this person a dress, food, or something like that. It does not give me any rewards; it just costs me a lot of money. It doesn't make the plot more interesting; it's just a pointless mission to do.”
“Quest does not provide any benefits; they just waste money.”
“This is not a story game.”

Overall, the graphics of the game receive mixed feedback from users. While some praise the graphics as good or even very good, others feel they are low or in need of improvement. Despite the varying opinions, many players find the graphics acceptable and enjoyable within the context of the game's overall experience.
“I really enjoy this game, the graphics, the story, and the game mechanics, I like it.”
“Such a good game, it was a bit challenging at first but it was very fun and I could play it anywhere because it's offline, the graphics were pretty good and decent, gameplay was smooth too, overall 4.5 stars :)”
“This game is good and the graphics are very good.”
“The graphics might be too low, but it's alright. I have one problem about the game in chapter 1: the 'Beat Suspicious Person' quest is so hard; every time I punch, the suspicious man always regenerates to max health, making it impossible to beat!”
“It might get boring over time, and the graphics might be a little off, but it's still a good and enjoyable game.”
“Hope the developers will improve the graphics.”

Overall, the gameplay is praised for its fun mechanics and engaging storyline, with many players enjoying the challenge it presents. However, some users noted issues with in-game currency collection and a lack of clear instructions for certain mechanics, suggesting that improvements in tutorial guidance and game mechanics could enhance the experience. Despite these concerns, the smooth gameplay and offline accessibility contribute to a positive reception.
“Such a good game, it was a bit challenging at first but it was very fun and I could play it anywhere because it's offline. The graphics were pretty good and decent, and the gameplay was smooth too. Overall, 4.5 stars :)”
“The gameplay was fun!”
“Very fun gameplay and who knew a canteen game would have air gliding.”
“It's difficult to gather money, and the quests require a lot of it. The gameplay is good, but earning money is quite challenging. Also, why do the quests feel like they're begging for money?”
“In fact, I have tried repeating it again and the result is still being kicked out of the gameplay.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive and tedious, with long school hours and frustrating mechanics that hinder gameplay flow. The need to constantly manage various tasks adds to the grind, making the experience feel laborious rather than enjoyable.
“A similar game in Roblox has better pathfinding and game flow than this grindy cafeteria simulator.”
“I mean, it's so grindy that the school hours are too long, getting stuff stolen is a pain to chase after, and you can accidentally grab tables full of customers when you actually wanted to simply turn sideways while walking around.”
“Quite a grindy and tedious game, where you need to busily go around and do stuff to keep things in check (restock, serve, clean trash, watch out for a fight, smuggler).”

The monetization strategy primarily relies on ads that appear when players exit or enter locations in the game, which some users find disruptive, as it can lead to a black screen that prevents them from returning to gameplay. While the ad placement is frequent, it does not deter all players from enjoying the game.
“Every time I close the ads, the screen goes black. I wait for several minutes, but it doesn't return to the game.”
“There are only ads when you exit or enter a place. It's fun, but I would actually play this if it weren't for the ads.”
