Info about Sandwich Simulator:

Official game description:
Setting up and running your own sandwich restaurant has never been this fun! In Sandwich Simulator, whether solo or with friends in co-op mode with up to 6 players, you will own a rapidly growing restaurant. Try to quickly fulfill your customers' orders by preparing delicious sandwiches and drinks. Take the orders at the counter, prepare customized sandwiches and drinks, then place them on a tray and deliver them.
_The sizzling sound the chicken makes while frying..._
A topic we always prioritize: Customer satisfaction is extremely important!
Satisfy the customers who come to your restaurant. Deliver orders on time and keep your restaurant clean. As your reputation grows, you'll attract more customers, and while this will make things tougher, it will double the fun!
_The customer is always right... even when they're very, very wrong._
The thing that makes a sandwich the most delicious is the bread and the ingredients inside. In Sandwich Simulator, there are exactly 4 types of bread and more than 10 ingredients! A fast-paced game mechanic that increases in difficulty awaits you. As you progress in the game and your fame increases, the variety of orders will grow, and managing time will become increasingly difficult. You wouldn't want a fire to break out in your kitchen. At this point, you might need your friends, but in Sandwich Simulator, you can also challenge this intensity on your own!
_Just another **well-done** shift._
In Sandwich Simulator, the locations of all ingredients and kitchen utensils can be changed. It's up to you to decide how the interior of your kitchen and restaurant will look. For example, if you want to use a counter in a different place, you can do that.
_Pro tip: Putting tables in the fridge won’t keep your guests fresh._
At some point, your restaurant will be open to online orders. You can also serve your surroundings with courier deliveries! Accept online orders and deliver the sandwiches you prepare in your kitchen to the courier. Online customers will evaluate and rate you.
_Pro tip: Customers prefer sandwiches over empty boxes._
It is very important to keep your restaurant clean at all times. When your customers see dirty places, the reputation of your restaurant will be tarnished.
Wipe down your counters and floors, collect the trash from the tables, and clean the restrooms. Prevent your restaurant from staying dirty.
_Warning: Customers aren’t professional figure skaters!_
In addition to serving tables in your restaurant, if your restaurant is large enough, you can purchase a drive-thru service upgrade. Thus, your restaurant will become a banquet stop, and extra space will be created at your tables! Additionally, with this improvement, your profit will increase even more.
_Serve more customers without adding more tables._
Manage your restaurant, delegate tasks to your friends. While one of your friends takes the orders, the other friend can clean the restroom.
Sandwich Simulator offers a fun, fast-paced simulation game. While managing your restaurant on one hand, you will need speed and strategy to keep your customers happy on the other. Are you ready to prepare delicious sandwiches, satisfy your customers, and take your business to the top?
_Success tastes better when shared._

Feature scans:
- Proton/Linux: score 30; verdict: Mixed but playable; summary: User feedback on Linux/Proton compatibility is mixed. One user reports abysmal performance on Linux, while another reports smooth play on Steam Deck. The game appears to run, but performance may be inconsistent across setups.
- Steam Deck: score 55; verdict: Tinkering Required; summary: The game suffers from poor UI readability on the Steam Deck's small screen, with tiny fonts and hard-to-see order details. Performance on Linux is subpar, requiring resolution scaling to achieve playable framerates. While some users report a smooth experience, the majority of feedback indicates the need for manual adjustments and a less-than-ideal experience.

- Hardware Profile:
  - Summary: Performance varies by VRAM tier: lower VRAM shows mixed results with both good FPS and notable stability issues, while higher VRAM tiers report more severe freezes and crashes.
  - Sample size: 98 (10% coverage)
  - Audience skew: Review sample is mostly Windows-based.
  - Windows <8GB VRAM (mixed, 60 reports): Reports are mixed: some users get high FPS and good optimization, but many experience stuttering, memory leaks, and bugs that affect playability.
  - Windows 8-11GB VRAM (negative, 18 reports): Most reports indicate severe frame drops, freezes, and poor optimization even on high-end rigs.
  - Windows 12-15GB VRAM (negative, 15 reports): Users report complete freezes and crashes, making the game unplayable.
  - Caveats: 98 of 935 reviews expose hardware metadata.; Review sample is mostly Windows-based.
Feature extractions:
- Community Price:
  - Community fair range: $3.00 - $6.00
  - Reasoning: The community is split on the fair price. Some reviewers feel the game is worth more than its original £4.29 (~$5.5), while others argue it is not worth the full $5 due to AI slop and glitches. Many praise it at deep sale prices like $1.24, indicating it is a budget title. The current base price of $4.99 sits near the upper end of what many consider acceptable, with a reasonable fair range spanning from $3 to $6.
- Playtime Metrics:
  - Game completion: 10.0h
  - Story completion: N/A
  - Session length: 3.0h
  - Endgame: 15.0h
  - Reasoning: Game completion is supported by multiple reviews reporting full unlocks or completion between 3 and 15 hours, with common figures around 9-10 hours (e.g., 'about 9 hours to unlock almost everything' and '10 std. durchgespielt'). The 3-hour claim is an outlier, but the 9-15 hour range is consistent, so I set gameCompletion to 10 as a central estimate. Story completion is not mentioned anywhere, so it is null. Session length is supported by explicit sessions of 5 hours and 3 hours, plus a French review noting that a 'small session' often extends to hours; I set sessionLength to 3 as a typical session. Endgame is supported by the 15-hour mark where 'nothing left to achieve' and a 14-hour review stating nothing left to unlock, so I set endgame to 15.
