✦ AI summary

Players consistently criticize the game's clunky controls, poor tutorials, and lack of guidance, with complaints about character glitches, confusing mechanics with no on-screen labels, and excessive waiting times that drag down pacing. While one player found the difficulty challenging but engaging, the overwhelming consensus is that the game needs significant polish and quality-of-life improvements before it's worth playing, with most reviewers recommending avoidance in its current state.

Oh my god... I can't even explain how bad this is, first off, the controls are wicked messed up, sometimes when I'm supposedly moving forward, my character will glitch and go backwards instead. And the very beginning of the game doesn't even try to help you understand what or where you're supposed to even look at, once you figured that out, have fun cooking some burgers while waiting 30 seconds each... So much fun, not to mention that I had the hardest time trying to figure out how to even cook burgers or fries or make a drink, there was no labels ANYWHERE, it was all guess work. Even after you get out of the restaurant that you work for, there is absolutely no help to aim you to where your house is located, you just have to randomly walk around and hope you don't randomly get attacked by a dog wandering about. I mean, why put random attacking dogs out of no where, I don't think anyone is going to be prepared for that ESPECIALLY with the awkward movement controls. NOT TO MENTION THAT FINDING MY HOUSE WAS A PAIN BECAUSE THERE WAS NO INDICATION TO WHICH DIRECTION IT WAS AT... like freaking seriously it isn't hard to put a marker on the screen. I finally got there after dying once,…
