On the surface, this game is a simulation of a cat chef opening a restaurant, but if you play it deeper, you will find that the impact of each version update on the operating rhythm is no less than the change of a certain hero in the game. For example, after last month's update, customers' ordering preferences changed, and dessert orders suddenly increased sharply. As a result, the "seafood platter" that I mainly recommended at the time was out of stock. The three cat chefs in the kitchen were in a hurry, and customer satisfaction dropped sharply. At that moment, I thought I was watching a team being forced to change tactics because a strong hero in the version was cut.
Later, I learned to adjust my strategy the same way I analyze competition BP: look at the numerical changes in the update announcement, study which ingredients have been improved in cost-effectiveness, and then rearrange the recipe priorities and chef position allocation. This feeling is quite strange. It is obviously a casual game, but it has a competitive flavor of "adapting to the version and finding the optimal solution". Moreover, there is cooperation between the cat chefs. Who is responsible for cutting vegetables, who is serving the dishes, and who is in charge of cashiering. If the arrangement is good, everything goes smoothly. If the arrangement is not good, the kitchen will be fried collectively. This is the same as the team's execution ability.
Of course, I usually like to talk about version balance when watching games, so I can't help but be serious about a small game like "Food Classifier". But seriously, its update frequency is not very high, and every change has a clear intention. It either adjusts the difficulty or changes the focus of the gameplay. It will not make you feel confused. For players who like to ponder strategies in the game but don't want to be too excited, this game is quite suitable as a side game.
Finally, I would like to say that although I usually talk about fighting and killing e-sports, it is quite healing to occasionally be a chef in a cat restaurant and experience the ups and downs of "version control". Recommended to all friends who are a little obsessed with management and scheduling, maybe you can also see some "operational games" from it😼.
