Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Idk if it's just me, but hasn't really captured my attention past what was shown in the demo. Money is too slow to come by when it will take 10+ sales at ~2 a day to buy a shelf or 2 slots to store more trash, most characters are nameless…”
“I didn't find the cleaning mechanic to be very interesting, either: just chisel and wipe. Not for me. 3/10.”
