I really enjoyed the first 10-15 hours of Bear & Breakfast. Around the middle of the game, the emphasis shifts from designing to managing, which I found noticeably less fun. There are ways to eventually automate certain tasks, but by that point I was already feeling a bit burnt out.

I also found the epilogue to be unnecessary and tonally out of place with the rest of the game. There is a good game in here, but there is also a lot of unnecessary padding.

I played on Steam Deck and it worked well enough, though I imagine a mouse and keyboard is probably the preferred way to play.
