✦ AI summary
Players praise the game's unique approach to management sims, particularly its custom-made NPCs and nostalgic 1990s atmosphere that sets it apart from typical asset-flip titles. However, many feel the $20 price point is unjustified given the relatively sparse content, though the game's appeal is significantly enhanced by its active modding community that allows for extensive customization.
This game is amazing!!
I had a lot more fun playing this game a lot more than I thought I would. For such a simple premise, it's very satisfying. I mean, it's "Go to work, the game"...but it's fun! My only gripe is some of the 90's references were way off in terms of date, and also some things are in it that were not in the 90's. Devs, message me if you wanna know the anachronism.
The game is very well optimized and I love how they keep adding content over time it gets very addicting and makes you wanna just do one more day in the game. Can't wait for them to add the video game update whenever that will be. I definitely recommend it
It isn't a hard game, but it is fun and you can advance and make your store bigger and bigger.
this game is really fun to play. I've enjoyed the different movies, making the snacks, fixing the movies when they get broken, along with so much more.
This game is incredible. The references are hilarious, it's incredibly customizable, and the furnature placement system is *Chef's kiss*. My only complaints (besides wanting more!) are A) it's a little inconsistant whether the corners have to be decorated the same as a wall next to it or not, and B) some of the phantom items indicating the need to replace merchandise (such as toys or snacks) don't match the items very well some times. Honestly, that's being me being insanely picky. This is a *fantastic* game. The flow of the game is great, the ratio of how much you earn to how much things cost is well ballanced. Hiring empoyees is satisfying, and they don't replace you too much! There's always plenty to do. I have a regular non-gaming pc and with a few graphics adjustments it runs just fine. Round of appause for the devs!
