In The Ramen Sensei 2, you're in charge of a ramen restaurant with the goal of besting other restaurants in competitions. The game is mostly autonomous, which can be good and bad. After the tutorial sets up the staff, menu, furniture, and ramen, the game runs itself. It felt rewarding to wait and receive new ingredients or see customers level up. On the other hand, I felt little motivation to compete and complete the goal because of these rewards. It's a nice, if not lackluster, experience. 4/5.

Ramen Sensei 2 gives an extra layer of challenge (and fun) compared to the first one but in keeping up the Kairosoft habit of not exactly being intuitive for new players even with guides, it's easy to miss out on what you might need to do to beat some of the more challenging/mandatory for story progression mini games like Ramen Odyssey or the Ramen challenges. In being a little challenging to figure out, it does encourage a lot of fun replays and the microtransactions aren't necessary to win.

Fantastic game *Developer Glitch Notification* The game is fantastic, and normally I'd stop there, however there is a glitch that doesn't recognize that you have tactics level 3 and let you keep buying it with rank points. That means that you're stuck in a key game progression. This is my second time playing through it, so I can say it didn't used to have this glitch.
