The Chef's Shift

Finished the demo. It was AMAZING with an awesome plot line that could run circles around a lot of blockbusters, a gripping story, and interesting and memorable characters. No fillers. Every line was perfect, I could hear their Italian accents, and I kinda wish it had voice acting too. I can't wait to play the full game.
The gameplay is also fun and feels good.

I just finished it in one sitting and I loved it. Very interesting concept and great execution IMO, although shorter than I would've liked. I would definitely recommend if you like PlateUp and card games.
A couple criticisms:
- More recipes and just more content in general would be great. This felt like I was playing the tutorial and I was disappointed there wasn't more to it.
- The ability to pause just takes all the stress out of the game making it way too easy. I tried not using it too much at times but it's there so that didn't happen and I cheesed it... That might be what you're looking for though, just manage your restaurant without stress. But I think that with a real time constraint and more content added it could be a great restaurant management game that could rival something like PlateUp (depending on the person of course. I just love the card system). I'm not sure if it would need huge rebalancing with an actual time limited run mode, but if the devs made one I would love to try it.
- Some basic UI and QOL stuff: The huge pause indicator is annoying and the coin cards could be condensed since it grew out of the board limits for me.
