yeah i bought this because i liked the mobile version... just play the free mobile one. this version is mediocre in comparison. it was really buggy in my experience. a lot of features that are almost necessary at a certain point are locked behind microtransactions. at least the mobile version gave you the option of ads instead...

Its nice I just wish that the upgrades like automatic topping placers are too expensive, they should not be $500 each

I've played this game for about 4 hours.
It's a really cute concept, and quite a calm game. It is indeed visually polished, with nice music, and a few fun subsections like decorating and gardening that do coincide with the main event: managing a pizza parlor.

But I simply cannot recommend it. There's too many things that leave a bad taste in my mouth.
It's a free mobile game, but on Steam it costs money to play a really slogged down version that encourages you to spend real money. I really hate deceptive marketing.

1) The design: It's a little too repetitive with gameplay loop. I think the UX and UI are well thought out, except for the fact that it's not made for mouse, and is deceptive with paying real money vs in-game money.

2) This was obviously a game made for touch controls first, because the mouse controls and clickable zones are not consistent enough (causing you to mis-click a lot, and scroll across the pizza cooking screen instead of moving the pizza).

3) Way too much of a push for DLC, done in a sneaky way. The in-game currency is designated by a dollar bill image, and cash-shop purchases aren't clearly stated and designated with a dollar symbol ($). It's very easy to not catch that at first. There's also diamonds that you can buy or earn in game. All of the DLC is a reskin of items in game, which are published frequently but don't add any substance to the game itself in the slightest.

4) The gameplay loop is really slow and trudging for someone who refuses to pay-to-win. Earning funds in-game to buy the non-cash-shop items is a real grind, designed for you to get fed up and pay real money. I do not appreciate the predatory pay-to-win practices.
