Recurring themes

Ads negative
The most common complaint is the overwhelming number of ads, which appear frequently (e.g., after every action or mukbang) and are sometimes deemed inappropriate for the game's audience. Many users express a desire for fewer ads or an offline mode to bypass them.R1R3R4R8
Offline Play negative
A significant number of users wish the game could be played offline, citing travel or lack of Wi-Fi as reasons they cannot enjoy it everywhere. Some believe an offline mode would also reduce the ad frequency.R6R11R12R13
Crashes and Glitches negative
Several users report the game crashing, particularly after ad breaks or when nearing completion of a mukbang. Other glitches include a lack of background music and screen display issues during mini-games on iPads. One user even reported a device glitch with a loud sound.R1R9R16R26
Gameplay & Cuteness positive
Despite the issues, many users consistently praise the game for being fun, cute, satisfying, and relaxing. The ASMR elements are particularly highlighted as enjoyable.R1R2R5R7
Age Rating Change negative
Some users are confused and upset that the game's age rating changed from 4+ to 12+ without clear reason, preventing younger siblings from playing. This contradicts the game's generally cute and innocent aesthetic.R27R40

Who it's for

This game is for players who enjoy cute, relaxing, and satisfying mukbang simulation games with ASMR elements and don't mind frequent ads or paying to remove them R35. It's also for those who appreciate regular content updates, like the new K-lunch feature R35R49. It is not for players who dislike frequent ad interruptions, require offline gameplay, or experience device glitches and crashes R1R9R16.

Evidence note: The sample of 50 recent reviews leans heavily on ad complaints and connectivity issues, which contrasts with the high lifetime rating. The developer's notes mention new content, which is positively received by some R35R49, but do not address the prevalent issues of ads or crashes, which users still report R1R16.
