For this week's Mobile Friday i tried #Catstaurant: Cat Chefs, from developers ‪@superbox119‬ , on my #iPhone 14 Pro.

I've tried a few of these animal restaurant idle games but often there's a compromise which makes the overall experience less than it could be. sometimes it's amazing animations at the expense of something, or a good story but somethings off, or it's just poor overall. Going into Catstaurant: Cat Chefs i wasn't really sure what i was going to get.

It would be easiest to say that Catstaurant: Cat Chefs doesn't stick the landing, to such a degree that it almost feels like it's only half complete and they released what was playable. for example, the tutorial starts great but then just stops. the art is nice, but it's very repetitive. the music is fine, but you can hear the loop. the story looked interesting, but was never mentioned again. but the weirdest one was that i don't really know what the idle mechanics are for this idle game as at no point did it tell me. whether that's the tutorial's fault, the story's fault, or the developers simply forgot, it fits into the thought that perhaps Catstaurant: Cat Chefs wasn't finished but released anyway.

As it is, i can't recommend Catstaurant: Cat Chefs. there are elements about it that are good and work well as a commuting game, but they're not enough and i can't recommend it on it's potential as there's no guarantee it'd ever be reached.

Version 1.1.5 Played.
