I play a lot of job simulators to relax and zone out. This is not relaxing. The controls are awkward (constantly switching between E and R) with multiple steps to do things. (Ie you have to pick up the ground coffee to fill the portafilter, you cant use the portafilter you just emptied on the ground coffee, you need to put it down to pick things. You don't have proper control over your menu. Things just take too long to do, and your customers will get pissy at you much quicker than you'll be able to get through all the steps even to just make an espresso, let alone if they've a more complicated order. It's a shame, as I feel with some tweaks I'd really enjoy this game. As it is, I'd rather do a shift at Starbucks.

im not sure if its a good simulator because i find my self making the same mistakes i do when making coffee at home or a bad simulator because the clunk opens me up to trying to pour beans into the portafilter... either way i feel like i am drowning the whole time and the controls aren't very intuitive.

No cloud saving. No updates since release. Jk, they did one 6 months after the release and then nothing. But its okay, they will release a new simulator, with cloud save. Probably will cost also around 15$ and they will never update it. Its a same, having such a good idea, having responses from the players and doing absolutely nothing for a year and releasing a new game. You have the support, they actually buy your game and you just leave it be. Overall, if you play a simulator to sit back and chill, this one is not for you. Too much steps to just make a freaking coffee, the controls are pretty bad, even if there is an option to change them, doesnt make much of a difference. You might aswell get a job as a real barista. At least you will get paid for all this frustration!

Has the potential to be super fun and chill but the controls are absolutely unbearable and doesn't make sense. You can do all interactions with just "E" but instead we have "E", "R" and "F". Just feels really janky.
