LIBRITOPIA: Librarian Simulator

I'm glad I decided to check the game again. Really loved the idea of managing a library, but in the beginning, there wasn't a Relaxed version, and I'm awful with names in general - book names included, so naturally it was more stress than fun, because it was too chaotic for my liking. Now, after 11+ hours of playing the Relaxed version of it, I can say that I love it. I didn't encounter any problems with the game other than customers getting stuck near some objects - such as flower pots, but after moving the object in question, the problem fixes itself, so no complaints there. It can get a bit repetitive obviously; there is only so much stuff you can do in a library simulation, but it is a pleasant game to play. Also, love the fact that you can decorate and change the colors of almost everything in the building. I think it's worth the money. Thank you, Devs!

This game has some problems, imo. Between the slow walking and the only holding one book (unless I'm doing it wrong) it's a slow and frustrating start. Why do the checkout and the return programs need to close on the pc's on the checkout and return desks? I'll continue playing it with decent updates but for now I've seen enough. Also the timer to open or finish is a little frustrating, one or the other I could understand so you could use one of them to finish up tasks/clean up or organisation. So I do not recommend it at the moment, but hopefully will in the future.

Game is crashing before it starts when I play single player :(

Très sympa

目前的版本来说，这是一款很有潜力的游戏，我相信大多数购买这款游戏的也是爱书之人，整理图书和服务访客本身就是极大的乐趣，游戏做到了这一点。 但并非没有不足。就是在布局上不够有自由度，我们必须依靠升级获取新的书架，而我个人，只爱那种大书柜，但不是每次升级都能选择这样的大书架，也不能依自己的喜好获得更多的大书架，这让人感到束手束脚，当然，我可以通过捐书疯狂升级，但依然感到奇怪。 另一个问题就是修书，那么多图书，我只能三天修十本，随着访客增多，损坏的图书也在变多，我能有什么办法？只能全捐出去吗？有没有可能，哪怕让每次修书的上限随着等级提高变多一点点呢？ 但这款游毁的框架真的不错，期待以后完全的版本。

I wanted to like this game, but it is so janky. Maybe a better tutorial would help, but some core elements are just...off. Issues: - the tutorial popups don't reflect what you've done. The one that says to use the apps in the tablet (..which all seem useless, so I'm not sure why it wanted you to) stayed after I've clicked through at least 3x. As well as the one that says "Use ESC to find out how." - ...or you could just put all the info in the one popup? Both went away, but I think only because I finished the day and things reset. - No info on the returns process, so I had a bunch of unhappy customers because I didn't notice the pile of books needing re-shelving and told them I didn't have the book. Also, no info on when/how you use Late Return or Damaged Book, and what the consequences of doing so are. - For a game whose USP seems to be "build/organise the library however you like!" there's really no info with which to do this, and unlocking 1 shelf per day (...I think, I lasted 3 days so who knows if this picks up) really doesn't give you room for organising. Also there's zero info about the book when you look at it, besides colour cover, title, and author. Unless you're dreaming of organising just based on cover colour, you need to know lots of other info - genre, author, year of publication, maybe page count? Lots of different metrics could be used to organise. - It took me at least 10min to figure out how to re-position furniture. Seems like kind of a key element, given the game introduces new flows (with new furniture) as the game progresses. - I encountered one customer who couldn't self-register and the UI for "filling out" their registration info was so clunky, and seemed super pointless. If you're going to fill your game with mini-games, at least make them interesting. - The visuals are not great. I don't necessarily mind the janky people, but for a library based book, the books + furniture should look decent. - (Nitpick) The shelves look like a bookstore rather than a library. The back office shelves look like proper library shelves, I don't know why the main library area uses 6 books laid flat on a shelf. - (Nitpick) You have to click twice to exit the return or checkout process. Once to exit the "program" that handles checkouts/returns, once to exit the computer. Why?? Overall, it all felt very much like busywork, and not like being a librarian (which I'm sure involves busywork, but this is meant to be a gamified version of that role).
