I've been playing the hell out of this on Steam Deck and it is just so great! Glad it's coming to console so more people can enjoy this game!
This game looks really cute and made a big splash when it first came out, but I'd be curious whether it has any staying power or if it grows stale with repetition.
I've only ever heard players saying they love the shit out of it and haven't seen anyone saying they ended up disliking it or growing bored. I'd like to know people's generally play hours, though, too
I'm at chapter 5 (of 7) and Steam is showing 15.6 hours (and 18/43 achievements if you are into achievements, which I am not.). I am still loving it.
I played a lot of it the last few days, so I am taking a little break to play something else. I need a few more restaurant days to make money to upgrade my suit to explore deeper to progress the main story quest. I blew all my cash training the best restaurant staff so that my kitchen is completely automated though.
I will say that I am chapter 5 now (of 7), and the game is always throwing new things at you. New mechanics, new story beats, twists on gameplay, boss battles, etc. It has stayed very fresh for me. I wouldn't say it is overwhelming either. It starts a bit slow where you think, "ok it's just a fishing, sushi restaurant management sim", but this is far from all that the game offers. I am loving it.
