The game's replayability is limited due to its scripted customer interactions, which prevent players from continuing to prepare dishes after completing the game, necessitating a full restart to experience the gameplay again.
“Since the customers are scripted (and not random), you can’t continue preparing dishes after you finish the game. For that, you would need to start all over, thus the replayability factor is somewhat limited.”
“Once you've completed the game, there's little incentive to replay it since the experience remains largely the same each time.”
“The lack of varied scenarios or outcomes means that after a few playthroughs, the game feels repetitive and loses its charm.”
