Grand Gourmet text too fast: turning auto text off

Install the latest available Steam update, 1.0.8 as of October 28. The auto-text toggle was added in 1.0.7; 1.0.8 instead lists ship rearrangement, Sky Resort guest sorting and stability changes. It does not announce a fix for every tutorial scene that still advances automatically.

Bandai Namco posted Free Update Data Ver. 1.07 for Steam on October 23, 2026. It added the option to turn automatic text progression ON or OFF for certain text, and adjusted the display order of some graphics. The notice asks you to install the update before playing.

The notice doesn't say which text is covered, or when the Switch and mobile versions get the same change.

One player says to click the auto-scroll switch off in the left corner of the screen. Several players in the longer text-speed thread say they could turn auto text off only in some parts of the game, and that it switched itself back on in parts of the tutorial. Those reports came in around the patch, so some may be from before 1.0.7.

PlayGround.ru's launch report describes the same problem: dialogue and tutorial hints moving on fast enough that players missed how systems work.
