★★★★★ Bugs?? But Love <3
Sun Jun 05 2022 Bored PanI’ve been into hyperbeard mobile games since day one. The cute styles and concepts dragged me in. Soon after it would often get boring, (it just didn’t have enough to do or was repetitive, etc.) But I feel like with this game they finally got it right. For example: Good amount of customization, variety of activities, multiple efficient ways to produce income and more. An overall positive evolution from what I’ve seen previously. However, I have been seeing a couple issues.
1) Watching advertisements for free clothing does not work. It’ll show me new outfits for employees I don’t even have and then I won’t see it in my collection.
2) I don’t have any new outfits to buy even though to complete quest I am required to.
3)Watching ads for cash is no too. My content blocker blocked the websites the task linked. When I looked them up to see if their safe or trusted, people said it was a scam. Where they say they gave you the reward when in fact they did not.
I had another game like this that I ADORED, but in the end I had to delete it. This bunny bakery game was the best, but then their were some glitches that freaked me out and I had to delete it. If the problems I have worsen then they may end in the same fate. :,(
★★★★★ Bugged!
Sun May 21 2023 Bennet873I love this game, and I play it endlessly, but it has a looot of issues. This game is very cute and it has so much potential, but I don’t understand some of the mechanics. Making the sushi and the ramen is fun, but the glitches prevent you from doing things correctly. Sometimes it lets you make anything EXCEPT the correct item that the customer wants. You don’t even get any extra money from doing it manually, so the fun part is kinda ruined because it angers your customers and slows your progression in the game. Half the employees hardly do anything, and you end up doing it yourself. The employees are pretty loveable though, and they end up having some interesting character arcs. There’s a bug where sometimes keep giving you the same dialogue just to unlock an outfit that you already unlocked yesterday. I wouldn’t recommend watching ads to double your money. I watched dozens of ads before I realized it didn’t even work for me. I wouldn’t recommend the surveys either. Even if you do them correctly, they won’t usually pay out on the larger ones unless you take it to customer service with photo evidence. Just keep rushing customers in, give the game a break, and then you’ll come back to more customers. All-in-all the game is pretty fun and cute but it could use a lot of work.
★★★★★ Could be so good
Tue Dec 06 2022 aestheticjojoThe premise of the game and the mechanics when they work are pretty addicting, but there are just SO. MANY. BUGS. please fix at least some of them! Currently the holiday penguin is coming around and I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be giving me themed gifts in exchange for my gingerbread men, but they give me nothing. My workers keep giving me furniture or outfits I've already unlocked, and when I'm preparing food, almost half my clicks aren't registered and make me mess up often. Sometimes when I watch an ad for double money or to fill the restauraunt or get furniture, the ad plays and then it just doesn't give me my reward. Lastly, this isn't a bug, but the workers are quite innefficient at what they are supposed to do. You can't really rely on the workers at all to clean up the area in a timely fashion. Like, the mouse is supposed to "fix" things so that I can "focus" on making food, but she doesn't even fix the broken tables caused by angry squirrel and the time it takes her to clean filth off the tables is so ineffective that I might as well be doing everything on my own, I almost don't see the point of having these workers except when they help me prep food. Prehaps the team can consider making the workers more useful? Maybe the actions they do, they can be programmed to do more often?
★★★★★ Cute and Fun, But some Bugs/Glitches
Sun Jul 24 2022 Alyssa WescottWhen I first found this game I was very excited to play, and when entering, was not disappointed. The graphics are very cute and colorful, along with the customer and employee designs. This game is definitely recommend for people who like decorating and repairing. But aside from all this, there are some downsides I would like to talk about. The only thing that always ticks me off are the bugs and glitches. There was one glitch I found when watching ads for customers or repairing. At the end of the advertisement, you’re supposed to get your reward. But sometimes this doesn’t process, and the screen turns black. Then I exit the game and go back in, erasing the data that I watched a quick ad to get any sort of reward. This is very frustrating and I hope it gets fixed. Another bug I found was when I finally unlocked the ramen shop! I got even more pumped up to fix up the place and take orders from the customers, who are all office doves at the start. However, when I was making the ramen, some of the customers wanted their food with hot sauce on top. Now, the hot sauce had worked perfectly in the tutorial for taking orders in the ramen shop. But once I started tapping hot sauce after the tutorial, the game wouldn’t let me finish the order. I did the same ingredients it told me to do before, but now when I tapped the ramen to finish it, nothing seemed to happen. Now I’m just messing up any customer’s order that has hot sauce in it, because of this terrible glitch. In conclusion, if you’re ready to put up with bugs and glitches, go ahead and download the game, and HyperBeard, please try and fix these problems so I can edit this review and give you guys the 5 stars you deserve.
Edit: A few hours later the hot sauce glitch went away! I think it was just the WiFi connection messing with the game systems.
★★★★★ Ads ads ads
Sun Oct 29 2023 PrinceAndyyyWhile the game is free, I understand devs need to make some coin. While the game on the surface doesn’t force ads in your face at random intervals, the economy of the game essentially forces the player to watch ads for rewards in order to progress. From what I’ve noticed, if you serve one customer 1 sushi, you get 1 coin (besides the sushi mini game) Most items for purchase are 100 coins and up. I would have to serve 100 customers in order to afford a basic item. That’s fine if there was a constant flow or customers show up freely. However you have to spam the flyer button to get customers to come to the restaurant (that’s the idle part of the game I guess). That’s fine BUT after so many customers, there is a 20 minute cooldown. In order to get around this, the player can use the flyer ad option which allows the player to watch a 45sec-1mi n ad to bring in 1 round of customers. You want coins? Watch an ad. You want dollars? Watch ad. You want furniture? Repair time speed? Ads.
I’m patient so I usually don’t watch many ads in games for things but in this game, I found myself watching more ads than actually playing because I felt the game economy forces me to do it in order to get any actual gameplay/progression. Will be uninstalling but very cute concept.
★★★★★ Has potential
Wed Mar 16 2022 CcorkerI adore this game’s art style, it is so pleasant to look at. The sushi-making minigame is fun. That being said, this game has a lot of flaws. First off, after upgrading from the brown table with green cushions to the cherry blossom table, it appears that I make less money per customer (from 10 down to 8). It is unclear if the furniture affects revenue earned. There is no incentive to upgrade furniture other than for aesthetic preference. Another issue is that there is no passive stream of customers. They should come in randomly, albeit at a slow pace if you want to incentivize button tapping. If I do decide to tap, then I get put in a “time out” if I tap too much. The player should be rewarded for drawing in customers, not punished. To make matters worse, the only way I can draw in customers during this punishment period is by watching an ad. Another glaring issue is that there appears to be no way to unlock new furniture and outfits other than by watching ads. That’s just slimy considering you need to unlock them to complete your task list. Additionally, I would love to see the customer tab more utilized. As it is, it’s just names and faces. I would love to see a personality description to match those cute faces. It would also be very helpful to list any differences in customers. For example, what makes the “bad” customers bad? What makes the “special” ones special? It seems like the special customer shibaby pays in bills rather than coins, but that’s the only special trait I could discern. Overall, this game has an adorable art style but feels unfinished and stagnant in terms of gameplay. I look forward to future updates and hope you continue to improve the game.
★★★★★ Cute!! but the flyer wait time is the worst
Mon May 23 2022 silly chaotic creatureThis game is so cute but if you're someone like me who has ADHD and a short attention span, you're probable going to play this for 5 seconds and absolutely love it! But once it stops you from attracting customers to actually, y’know, play the game?? You'll probably close the app and never open it again. This is a really cute game, i love the art style and the little characters. The sushi making game aspect is also interesting and fun! i personally love that you can watch ads to get rewards because i like quickly progressing in games! I also like that theres not much story since i skip through dialogue anyway. Please take off the flyer cool-down its the absolute worst! Great game though! :)
Edit: i take back any positives i said, the skunk ruins the game. i played this game for about two days and i unlocked a lot of furniture and outfits and upgraded ingredients and recipes. my restaurant is at 4 stars, ive put so much time in this game in such a short timeframe and i loved it! once i unlocked the skunk, the entire experience was ruined. i hate thsi game now. i get no joy from anything in this game because i know no matter what, the skunk will always be there. its summoned by the flyers and the ads and i hate it so much. its unfair. it feels like its punishing the player for so much work just to ruin it. thanks for nothing.
★★★★★ Fun but has some big issues
Fri Jul 01 2022 NixySo first off, I will say I enjoy the gameplay and art style. It’s cute and I do enjoy designing my restaurants. The mini game to prepare sushi is enjoyable. However, I’ve run into some really major bugs that have kind of killed my enjoyment of the game. They added the new shops you can unlock, which I was thrilled about since I had everything I had wanted in my first sushi store.
Unfortunately, the ramen shop that I unlocked is pretty broken. When making the ramen, only the bowls with noodles and nothing else can be prepared. If I get an order for ramen with broth, it will not let me click on it to cook it. I end up having to send out uncooked ramen and losing the customers/my itadakimasu streak. Its incredibly frustrating. It’s not like I put the wrong ingredients in the bowl, it just will not prepare the food when I click on it.
I also think the game is a bit too aggressively monetized. The angry squirrel that breaks tables just feels like a cash grab, not a fun gameplay element. Sometimes I feel like I am watching more ads than I am playing the game (which might be due to the flyers that limit the amount of money you can earn). Overall it’s a fun concept with a flawed execution.
