Not perfect but enjoyable

I’ve noticed some ‘plot inconsistencies’ between 124-140. I genuinely play for the plot mostly, not so much the events or customer clashes (too many customer clashes in my opinion).

Now what I’m not a fan of is the switching of how much energy you get (25 to 15) and how few times you can watch ads. Ads give the game money, why limit how many ads? Also I’ve noticed nothing wheelchair accessible-friendly. I may not be wheelchair dependent but I do like seeing that inclusiveness.

A fun idea would be to have submissions for NPC designs too! Like an in-game reward if the art is picked! Just something fun is all.

Update: I cannot stand Eve. Point blank.

Did not work right

It got stuck on the beginning when it prompts you to tap 3 times on the bag.

Was fun

I used to love playing this game. But half of my generators have disappeared so I can’t really play now.

Cost of living? No thanks!

I've been playing L&P for a while now and really enjoyed it, but in the last few days the coin cost required to progress through each day has doubled, with no warning or explanation. I asked tech support what was going on and was told "This is because the Windmill Cafe has become so advanced and, consequently, more expensive. We want to congratulate you for getting this far ahead and decorating every little corner with gusto. It is only natural that our prices rise the better the cafe looks - you know how business goes!"

I play to distract myself from the stresses of the outside world; I don't appreciate them coming into a game that's supposed to be a fun escape!

Events are not interesting

The events are almost the same collecting jewels or the music recorder things or the perfume bottles.. there are events in other games which are much more interesting like mini merging event inside which gives energy bonuses, gems or card packs etc. story line is really good here and the energy available is better than other apps
