First of all, this game is very fun. But it gets to a point on certain levels where you pretty much cannot advance unless you buy something with real money. Also, I don’t understand how you’re supposed to unlock anything with the cards, I am level 396 and I have only unlocked the first place that they give you right off the bat. Everything else I am at maybe seven or eight cards and just need one more and it doesn’t matter how many packs I open I don’t get the ones I need. Which is crazy almost 400 levels in???? after I unlocked the protein bar, It really felt like I had to use power ups to pass levels or buy coins, there is no other way to pass. I really like this game and I understand that the developers need to make money but it’s frustrating when it’s every single level!! it also tells you that the power will be free and yet it uses the one that you have. very deceiving. Also, if you’re on a level that has a requirement for money to pass, and you just need maybe 10 more coins, and you just had a table finish, it doesn’t count the tips on that table… It doesn’t let you clean the table at the very end, essentially forcing you to lose the level.
Thanks so much for the feedback, glad you're having fun! We're constantly balancing level difficulty so the game stays enjoyable without spending — upgrading your kitchen and staff usually helps a lot on the tougher levels. As for the "free" power-up using one you already own, that doesn't sound right, so please reach out to us at support@zero1.games with your Player ID and a note on which level it happened, and we'll look into it. Thanks for playing!
