I investigated for 45 minutes and 5.89 EUR, constantly fishing and serving customers in Fish to Dish: Idle Sushi. Is this promised relaxing stroll, or just a tedious wait?

The ingredient combination puzzle system
The ingredient combination puzzle system for preparing sushi is ingenious. Each combination of ingredients can produce a unique flavor, adding a strategic layer to the gameplay. The variety of fish and sushi in the inventory is impressive, offering enough options to maintain interest.
The store customization is enticing. We can acquire new furniture and decorations that not only improve the appearance of our establishment but also add useful functionalities, such as improving sushi preparation efficiency.

The reward system can feel inconsistent at times. Sometimes catching a common fish only takes a few minutes, while catching a rare fish can take hours. This makes the game feel tedious, especially when the diversity of fish is not enough to maintain interest.
