Coastal Kitchen Simulator

Terrible balance. Don't pay too much attention to the top rated review. At the easiest difficulty, your restaurant completely fills up on day 3 (or maybe it was day 4), and it was essentially impossible for me to complete the day in a satisfactory way, as I was in no way anticipating the massive jump in difficulty. This is also before you are allowed to hire anyone. If I ever actually play again, I'm actually going to start over, have about 5 trays of each prepared ingredient and then close the restaurant early. That's the only way I can handle it.

want to like this game, it's slightly different than other restaurant sim games. but there are lots of things during the first 12ish levels of the game. one is storage. you can't upgrade till level 20 and there's just absolutely not enough room for all the ingredients, not to mention they shoehorn what you can put where. so it's even more limited storage. it gets very frustrating. I'd say there's a lot of balancing problems, the employees are pretty worthless except for maybe the wait staff. the line servers waste sooo much food. the cooks stand there not doing anything because they too are limited to doing very very certain things. it makes the game more frustrating than it needs to be for what I'd consider a cozy cooking game. positives are fun graphics and intuitive customer interactions. I feel like this game is going to have to grow some before I will want to play it again.

I really want to enjoy that game. I like the concept, I like the design. Unfortunately, it keeps crashing. Having to save every 2 minutes to not loose too much gameplay is not enjoyable at all. So for now, I can't recommend it. I hope the issue will be fixed soon cause other than that, I like the game. The only thing lacking would be a Co-Op option :p
