  • gameplay

    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    21% positive mentions, 58% neutral mentions, 21% negative mentions

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players finding the main loop boring and frustrating, particularly after a short playtime. However, others appreciate the fun mechanics and scientifically accurate cooking elements, though many note issues with optimization and a lack of substantial gameplay.

    • “Game is good, I love the scientifically accurate cooking mechanics.”
    • “Pretty fun so far, good mechanics.”
    • “It's just gameplay.”
    • “The main gameplay loop is boring and uninspired.”
    • “So 15 minutes of gameplay and you are already frustrated, trying to click icons on a computer.”
    • “It's horribly optimized and has little to no gameplay.”

  • graphics

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    10% positive mentions, 60% neutral mentions, 30% negative mentions

    The graphics of the game are generally perceived as underwhelming and unfinished, with players expressing disappointment in the overall visual quality and lack of customization options. Some users noted that the game performs better on ultra graphics settings, but the absence of a settings menu limits user control over graphics and resolution. Overall, the graphics do not meet the expectations set by the game's concept.

    • “Epic game! If you want to get the most money from cooking meth, you need to be on ultra graphics mode; it gives you a boost.”
    • “It's a good game concept, but all in all it's not finished at all. I like this kind of game, but the cooking and generally the graphics are just not what I would expect.”
    • “There's no settings menu, can't change controls, graphics, or resolution.”
    • “You could've kept working on it, improving, making it better, but no, you had to start working on 'Jesus Simulator'.”

  • story

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 70% neutral mentions, 30% negative mentions

    The game lacks a significant narrative, with players primarily engaging in basic tasks and missions without a cohesive story. The missions appear to be standalone activities, such as cooking or working with a computer, rather than part of a larger plot. Overall, the absence of a compelling story detracts from the gaming experience.

    • “☐ no story”
    • “E.g. first mission is to work with a computer and perform some basic tasks.”
    • “New mission!”

  • grinding

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 33% neutral mentions, 67% negative mentions

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive, often feeling that it requires an unreasonable time investment. While some appreciate the game's overall experience and improvements over time, many suggest that there are better alternatives available for the same price that offer more engaging gameplay without the grind.

    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
    • “As a new player, I've helped the dev with some bugs and the game isn't glitchy or buggy. I recommend it as it is a good experience, but it is quite grindy and you have to work quite a bit.”
    • “And no, the price does not justify it; you can buy much better games for 5 dollars: Vampire Survivor, The Room, the first Doom game, Cookie Clicker if you want a better mind-numbing grinding experience, and so on.”

  • optimization

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    67% positive mentions, 16% neutral mentions, 17% negative mentions

    The optimization of the game has received mixed reviews; some users commend its performance considering it was developed by a one-person team, while others criticize it for severe lag and poor overall optimization.

    • “I do have to say it works very well and is decently well optimized for a one person team, keep up the good work!”
    • “It's horribly optimized and has little to no gameplay.”

  • humor

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The humor in the game is appreciated, particularly for its playful nod to Walter White, but players find the experience marred by repetitiveness and a lack of engaging activities. While the comedic elements are enjoyable, the overall gameplay can feel stagnant, detracting from the fun.

    • “Honestly pretty good, only problem is there isn't a lot to do, and my game updated and lost my progress. But in general, a good game, and it's kind of funny if the certain ingredients to make a certain thing are real ingredients and if the funny little money trick works in real life.”

  • stability

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Overall, players report that the game is stable, with minimal glitches or bugs, contributing to a positive experience. However, they note that it can be grindy, requiring significant effort to progress, though it improves as players advance.

    • “The game has a lot of stability issues that can disrupt the experience, making it frustrating at times.”
    • “I've encountered several crashes that make it hard to enjoy the game fully.”
    • “While the gameplay is engaging, the frequent bugs and glitches really detract from the overall experience.”
