### 2/5 — Still bugged

*2025-11-01, version 1.4.0*

The parking lot bug that cars show up and instantly leave without letting the customer out is STILL in the game, after I am seeing reviews from a year and almost 2 years ago. Honestly kind of embarrassing, but I do love that they keep sending me reminders to leave a review, so that is what I am doing! If you don’t have $15 to buy the ad free version, don’t bother playing. Fun game underneath everything else though!

### 2/5 — Cool games but there are bugs

*2025-04-23, version 1.4.0*

My golden coins keep disappearing each day and in the special worlds I don’t earn money when I am away for some reason meaning I can’t complete the challenges

### 3/5 — Glitch in final restaurant

*2025-01-04, version 1.3.6*

I have upgraded everything in the final restaurant but the delivery guys will not stock the egg table. It’s annoying because eventually all the customers are just sitting waiting for the egg noodles. This seems like a major glitch.

### 2/5 — Stockist does nothing

*2024-12-14, version 1.3.6*

Annoying bug in one of the restaurants where the additional stockist doesn’t do anything so cant make certain recipes!

### 4/5 — Noodle & Vegetable farms Stucm

*2024-11-19, version 1.3.5*

They don’t restock the items from the farm, they just stand there.

### 4/5 — Game play

*2024-07-11, version 1.3.5*

The cars never have more then one person in it what the point of for chairs of only one person comes at a time

### 3/5 — Glitch of the game

*2024-06-24, version 1.3.5*

It’s a interesting game, but there’s a glitch. I hired four waiters, but one of the waiter just stand there and see a pile of food in front of him and doing nothing and the other one keep running around. Please do something about it. Thank you.

### 4/5 — Nice little game but…..

*2024-05-25, version 1.3.5*

Had this game for a couple of months. Decided to buy the no ads pack when it was on offer which makes it easier to progress. I’ve managed to get through the restaurants pretty quickly and currently on the 5th one. My disappointment is, it’s not even a restaurant but a farm so a tad bored whilst waiting for the next restaurant. Only upside is, there’s constant events which are fun to participate in but wish the rewards were abit better as you could be 49th or 4th and still get the same rewards so no incentive to do better. Also, there is a continuous bug regards to the parking on every single event, vehicles/spaceships/boats not able to park so not getting the amount of customers you should be getting. Otherwise, great little game. Keeps me entertained. Great graphics but please fix that bug, maybe allow us to go back to previous restaurants and release a new restaurant as soon as!!!

### 4/5 — Some bugs

*2024-05-16, version 1.3.5*

Really fun and addicting to play but still some issues:

Some cars pull into the parking lot and immediately leave without the customer getting out. My parking lot is only half full and my restaurant can never reach full capacity.

The noodle farm is too slow and my tables are always running out of ingredients even though my farm is fully upgraded. If you could add another upgrade to the noodle farm production or increase its speed that’d be great.

### 3/5 — Good entertainment

*2024-04-30, version 1.3.5*

Like every other games it has lots of ads but its good benefits and doesn't last long for more than 10 secs. 

Its enjoyable and good entertainment if one is bored. 

Im able to quickly level up items and such just from customers and some of the ads. I haven’t spent anything which is a bonus.

### 4/5 — Bug spoted

*2024-04-19, version 1.3.5*

I would make this 5 stars if this bug did not come the bug makes my upgrades go away for no reason

### 1/5 — Assistant Manger Package didn’t work

*2026-08-07, version 1.4.0*

The assistant manger package says it increases the offline limit time to 12 hours, but it didn’t work at all. As long as the game is offline, everything’s stop. Is it a different definition of offline or just a fake package

### 1/5 — Very old

*2026-03-02, version 1.4.0*

This game is in need of extremely long over due update, more realistic avatars , interior designs etc

### 1/5 — Glitch or not?

*2025-06-23, version 1.4.0*

I’ve been playing Idle Noodle but I think there’s a glitch and it means that I cannot progress any further, unless I’m just not understanding.

I have the quest “upgrade egg table 500 times”. 

When I press that, it says “research required, egg noodle recipe”.

I press ‘go to research’ and it says ‘you need to research egg noodle recipe in the lab’.

So I click ‘go to the lab’ and it says research items: ‘egg farm techniques’ and ‘egg noodle recipe’. Required ingredient ‘0/5 eggs’.

I press ‘egg noodle recipe’ and it just says ‘you need to research in the lab’, then it doesn’t take me anywhere.

What am I doing wrong?

I’ve tried submitting this as a message through your website but it just says that there’s an error.

### 1/5 — Pay to play game

*2025-02-24, version 1.4.0*

It starts off well, but by the second and third levels you have to buy gems to upgrade certain managers to progress. They got my money on the second map but I’m not buying more gems for the third. I’d have to buy at least 300 gems to pass this level and I refuse, so if you’re not willing to pay to play, this is not the game for you.

### 1/5 — I would give 0 stars

*2025-02-10, version 1.4.0*

I spent money to buy the ad free and also the 12 hr money but the beef pho recipe never dropped and now exports are dried up so I’m stuck in AZ.  No customer support, nothing.  I’m so mad and I feel screwed over.  I can’t move on to the next resteraunt so all the events are pretty much worthless to play.  Rip off

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2024-12-14, version 1.3.6*

The first level that you get a farm the noodles and vegetable won’t dry it just jams up the game progress and you can’t move on

### 1/5 — HELP? CANT CONTACT SUPPORT?

*2024-12-08, version 1.3.6*

Is there a way for me to come back to the last restaurant? I accidentally deleted the app cause I thought it would go back to where I was because the egg plant wasn't moving at all and I wanted my research lab to deliver eggs but I when I redownloaded the app it went back to where I was in the beginning. Please help because I don't wanna redo the whole thing when I was working so patiently specially the last level (where it was just factory) I even bought the noodle pass and now its gone PLEASE

### 1/5 — Good at the beginning but then you are stuck

*2024-11-01, version 1.3.5*

Played for a while, and it started off really well. The gameplay is fun and engaging, but after a certain point, you’re pushed to unlock specific managers and upgrade them, which requires gems. Unfortunately, gems are hard to come by as a free-to-play player, making progress feel slow and frustrating unless you’re willing to spend money. What started as an enjoyable experience quickly became a pay-to-win scenario.

### 1/5 — Level

*2024-07-06*

Wo bleiben die nächsten Level

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2024-05-01, version 1.3.5*

I like this game but had to restart because of the bug.  The travel locations always have a big with the crab table. The server/ stocker just stands there stuck in front of the table. It doesn’t get restocked. The customers that order it don’t get their dish and they leave mad… loosing money.  I restarted thinking it would fix it… but here we are again. Very annoying. There is no way to report issues either.

### 5/5 — hi

*2024-09-22, version 1.3.5*

this game is really fun for me ! its so interesting and it entertains me sometimes from boredom theres really nothing bad about this game at all 🤷🏽‍♀️

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2024-08-25, version 1.3.5*

I love game and have played it as far as I can.  I’m waiting for more restaurants to be released. The events are fun but are very repetitive as it cycles through a handful of them. I hope there is an update soon.

### 5/5 — Surprisingly Fun

*2024-07-01, version 1.3.5*

I’m usually very critical of mobile phone games because they are often just a cash grab to get little kids to spend money on their games but this game shocked me. I’ve played for quite some time and have been enjoying it I love how no ads are shoved down your throat and forced upon you without your permission. I love how ads are completely optional and are only for boosting your income and such making it so you can decide if you want to watch a ad or not. I also love how monetization isn’t shoved down your throat either the only time you see “hey spend money to make things easier” is when you open the game and it shows you how long you were away from the game and it basically says “hey you were gone for X amount of time but you can only redeem X amount of money from it because you’re not a member but if you want you can join and get all these benefits” as well as when you want to double the money you make it’s like “hey you can watch a ad to do this orrrr if you want you can spend X amount (I think it’s like 14.99$ or something) to be a member and get all these benefits but you don’t have to”. This is definitely a game that I will have on my phone for quite some time because this is how a mobile game should be especially if you’re not going to go the route of miHoYo or Kuro Games by making AAA like phone games.

### 5/5 — The best noodle game
