  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are generally smooth and not demanding, but players have reported significant graphical glitches, particularly when the store becomes full, leading to character movement issues. While some users appreciate the visual quality, others feel that optimization is lacking and that improvements are needed. Overall, the graphics are a mixed bag, with potential overshadowed by technical problems.

    • “The UI transitions are smooth, and the graphics are smooth but not demanding on system resources.”
    • “The graphics are nice, but they could have been optimized better for a more enjoyable experience.”
    • “The graphics are visually appealing, but there are some optimization issues that need to be addressed.”
    • “It's a good game so far, I know it is still in development, but the one thing that is really frustrating is the graphic glitch that happens on a regular basis. When I am turning or even walking straight, the character jumps and skips all over the place, and I can't keep him/her straight.”
    • “On the graphics glitch, it's not my computer. I can play XCOM 2 on full graphics and never have a glitch or a graphics skip on my machine, so I know it is the game. None of my other games glitch like this one does, and when my store gets full, it glitches on a more frequent basis.”
    • “On the graphics glitch, it's not my computer. I can play XCOM 2 on full graphics and never have a glitch or a graphics skip on my machine, so I know it is the game. None of my other games glitch like this one does, and when my store gets full, it glitches on a more frequent basis.”
  • monetization
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has received criticism for its intrusive ads promoting other games, which persist even after players opt to remove them. Users also express frustration with the poorly designed options menu and the cumbersome process of joining friends' servers, suggesting that the monetization approach detracts from the overall experience. While the graphics and gameplay are noted as smooth, the excessive advertising and limited in-game purchases have left many players dissatisfied.

    • “This game looks interesting at first, but once you get into it, you realize there are ads promoting other games. Even though they added an option to remove ads, it doesn't work as intended.”
    • “The game has ads, a poorly designed options section, and a bad user interface. Trying to join a friend's server requires entering a 6-digit code, which is time-consuming and frustrating.”
    • “The graphics are nice, but the monetization is frustrating. There are too many ads, and the items for sale are limited. It feels like they prioritize advertising over gameplay.”
  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some users finding it overly simplistic and lacking depth, while others appreciate its addictive nature and smooth mechanics. Despite the straightforward design, the game offers basic features like managing transactions and hiring workers, which some players find engaging. Overall, opinions vary significantly, with some considering it unworthy of its price.

    • “The UI transitions are smooth, the graphics are smooth but not demanding. The gameplay is simple; we need to calculate changes at the cashier, and sometimes the buyer uses cards. We can use TV for ad sales and hire workers.”
    • “The gameplay is super simple but also so addictive.”
    • “Gameplay is lame, the game is lame, options are lame, music is lame. Everything inside the game can be used for free or obtained within the game engine. No work has been done in this game; everything is so simple that even $3 is too much for it.”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is perceived as disjointed and filled with random elements, leading to frustration among players, particularly due to the inclusion of advertisements disguised as in-game missions, such as the requirement to purchase a decorative TV for minimal income.

    • “This game feels troll and random to me. Even in the game missions, it wants you to buy a TV (which is decorative and gives you slow income as well). It's basically more ads put inside your game, which is annoying as hell.”
    • “The story lacks coherence and feels disjointed, making it hard to stay engaged.”
    • “Character development is shallow, and the plot twists are predictable, leaving little room for surprise or excitement.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report significant stability issues with the game, particularly concerning graphics glitches that are not attributed to their hardware, as other games run smoothly. The frequency of these glitches increases when the in-game store is full, indicating a potential problem with resource management within the game.

    • “The graphics glitches are not due to my computer; I can play XCOM 2 on full graphics without any issues. This game is the only one that consistently experiences glitches, especially when my inventory gets full.”
    • “I frequently encounter crashes during gameplay, which disrupts my experience and makes it frustrating to progress.”
    • “The game has severe stability issues, often freezing or crashing unexpectedly, which makes it nearly unplayable at times.”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has been criticized as excessively harsh and unpleasant, contributing to an overall negative perception of the game's quality. Reviewers feel that the lack of effort in the game's design extends to its audio, making it feel simplistic and unrefined.

    • “The game music is straight-up earrape.”
    • “Gameplay is lame, the game is lame, options are lame, and the music is lame. Everything inside the game can be used for free or obtained in the game engine; no work has been done in this game. Everything is so simple that even $3 is too much for it.”
  • optimization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The optimization of the game has received negative feedback, with users citing poor performance that can lead to discomfort, limited item availability, and a lack of polish in graphics despite their potential. Additionally, there is criticism regarding excessive advertising for other products.

    • “I don't like it; the shooting mechanics are poorly optimized and give me a headache. The items for sale are few, and while the graphics are nice, they could have been better. There's also too much spam advertising for their other simulator, Pet Shop.”
