Italian Pizza Simulator Review (Closed BETA) | How Realistic is it?

Italian Pizza Simulator – A Surprisingly Realistic Pizza-Making Sim (Closed Beta First Look) I jumped into Italian Pizza Simulator — a closed beta playtest aiming for a hands-on, recipe-driven cooking sim where you measure ingredients, mix dough, prep toppings, and bake pizzas in a proper wood oven. The atmosphere is beautiful, and the “pin recipe” system makes cooking feel precise instead of annoying. This is an early slice, but the foundation is strong. With more polish on interactions and UI options, this could be a seriously addictive cooking sim by release. 🧾 ABOUT THIS GAME 🎮Game: Italian Pizza Simulator 🏗Developer: Games Incubator 📦Publisher/Backed by: PlayWay S.A. 🧪Status: Closed Beta / Playtest 📅Expected Release: 2026 🛒Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4002450/Italian_Pizza_Simulator/utm_source=simukreviews&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=yt_description 🎯 SIM UK RATINGS 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ [8/10] Realism 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜⬜ [7/10] Audio 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ [8/10] Fun/Gameplay 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ [9/10] Graphics 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ [8/10] Performance 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ [8/10] Overall ⏱ VIDEO TIMELINE 00:00 Intro 00:20 What is Italian Pizza Simulator? 01:10 First impressions & settings 02:00 Cooking systems (sauce, dough, toppings) 04:30 Positives 05:30 Negatives 06:30 Developer recommendations 07:30 Final thoughts ✅ POSITIVES ✅Lovely atmosphere and environment detail ✅Recipe pinning + auto-stop measuring feels genuinely “sim” ✅Hands-on cooking loop is satisfying ✅Runs well in this test build ❌ NEGATIVES ❌UI highlighting/pop effect is distracting ❌Some interactions feel fiddly ❌Tutorial logic can be inconsistent ❌Playtest slice is short, so depth is still unknown 🛒 SIM UK AMAZON PICKS (SUPPORT THE CHANNEL) Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/simuk ☕ SUPPORT SIM UK (TIP JAR) PayPal Tip Jar: https://paypal.me/SimUKToday 🔎 TAGS #ItalianPizzaSimulator #CookingSim #SimulationGames #Playtest #PlayWay #GamesIncubator #ManagementSim #SimUK #HonestReview #RealismReview
