My Private Kitchen Dream

I absolutely love this game. This game reminds me a lot of a game that I used to play back in the day that became abandoned by the developer, however. I have some questions from things I haven’t been able to figure out on my own and one of them is, is there any other way to win ‘talent phones’ without having to purchase them or purchasing them through diamonds? I see that they can be a daily gift but that’s just not enough😭 my other question was what’s the whole thing with the ‘nectars’ on the rooftop and what are their purposes. All I know is I can purchase them with my diamonds and then what does that do? Also what is the point of making orders through the little cat? And I also don’t know how to furnish my rooftop. I’ve been able to purchase items for it through environment rating but can’t actually access to see everything I own for that specific area. I hope you can get back to me soon because unfortunately there are no videos to help me out here!

UPDATE: Still playing, so that's a good sign I suppose. However, I am currently considering quitting because you can only hire more staff with a specific item. How do you get this item? Premium currency. How do you get premium currency? Wait and play, which is fine, or pay. HOWEVER, these items cost 500 diamonds EACH. It takes a few good days to save up that many diamonds, and some staff positions cost TWO of thse items. I'm quickly approaching a bottleneck in the staff value statistic and won't be able to do anything besides twiddle my thumbs and wait for days. At that point, it's a waste of time - I'm not progressing, and it's not like I'm grinding - the bulk of diamonds are gotten through events that just to happen to throw them at you, but you have limited daily missions to get pass EXP. There's nothing I can do to speed up this process besides throw money at it, and that's just bad game design. Look. I'm giving this 4 stars because I DO really like the game. It's cute, I like the mechanical gameplay aspects more than other games in this similar field, it's really just a pleasant game. WHEN it functions properly. The game launches, so it does have that going for it, and it also doesn't crash. But it just freezes up on occasion. The game tends to forget what menus are. Sometimes completing quests has this god awful delay, so you give up trying to claim it and then it randomly is like "oh yeah, you did a thing, here's that reward now". And sometimes it does that when you've already opened a different menu, so the game gets confused and you have to close and relaunch it. I like this game enough to give it 4 stars and forgive it's shortcomings. That's not to say that the shortcomings don't need to be fixed. I imagine I'll get a canned auto developer reply to email about my issues, but I straight up will not do that, because if the developers played 30 minutes of their game, they'd see all these issues themselves. It's lazy on their part. But, again, I do like the game. Fix it, it'll get 5 stars, easily.

This game is full of things to do, the micro-transactions aren't shoved down your throat and aren't really necessary, there are no pop-up ads, all the ads are optional and only used to speed up things, the art style and animation is aesthetically pleasing, all around, this is a solid game.
