Road Diner Simulator: Prologue

I think there is a genuinely solid foundation here. The food-prep and mini-games are immersive, and borrowing that Diner Dash-style pacing makes for a really well-balanced difficulty curve. I also love the fresh mechanics: the classic notepad, the hostess seating system, and posting the food orders are all great touches. However, a few design choices really hold the prologue back: [list] [*]The "Forever Roaches": I appreciate the setting to make them invisible (except watching that label, "Roach" run around the screen is beyond off-putting (and stupid), and having them as a constant, never-ending mechanic isn't just tedious; it's disgusting, and not only would I not eat there, I would not work there, would not go there, and if I managed the place... I would eliminate the problem! [B]IT'S NOT CUTE[/B] or a nice personality quirk for your game. [*]The Waiting Area (or lack thereof): Customers waiting outside to be called in completely breaks the immersion.

I really like the setting and foundation of the game! I always looked for a game were you could run your own diner, like Diner Dash style. I like the choice that comes with the seating mechanic of guests and different customization options, like the naming of tables. Maybe in the future there could also be different interior customization options. I like how the storage is handled and the dish washing. For the cash up of customers there could be a more satisfying depiction of the income you got. What is not satisfying and kills the experience for me is the cooking part. It doesn't feel immersive enough and like you actually prepared the dish. Maybe that stems from the lack of a cutting part of the ingredients and a missing part of having to put the ingredients together on the plate.

Doesn't work to make the order complete.

Can't wait until the full game is released. It is quite fun to play! it is definitely more than worth the try, especially for free!
