December 2025 Update Preview - Night 4, Decoration Shop & More

The most anticipated addition is finally happening. Developer nv1sh confirmed in the official Discord server:

"I'm focused on night 4 rn"
— nv1sh, Discord (December 2025)

What We Expect from Night 4

Based on the game's progression pattern and community speculation:

Predicted New Mechanics

Looking at how each night added complexity:

• Night 1: Basic cooking + Strange Person + Fuse Box
• Night 2: Siblings (memory) + Trash Bag Man + Meat Trompo
• Night 3: Ceiling Drip + Ghost Hiding + All previous mechanics

Night 4 could introduce:

• Multi-customer chaos (serving 2+ customers simultaneously)
• New "don't look" mechanics (mirrors, reflections?)
• Time-limited events with tighter windows
• More complex phone interactions
• A new kitchen area or expanded workspace

A completely new feature is coming to Road-Side Shawarma: the Decoration Shop! This was confirmed by developer nv1sh in response to community questions about customization options.

What Is the Decoration Shop?

The Decoration Shop will allow players to:

• Purchase cosmetic decorations for their shawarma stand
• Customize the appearance of the kitchen
• Display earned trophies or achievements
• Express personal style while cooking

Halloween 2025 Decorations - Exclusive!

Important News: If you missed the Halloween 2025 Event, you cannot get the Halloween decorations.

Community member thevitamimic reported that Halloween decorations weren't appearing, and the developer confirmed:

The Halloween 2025 decoration will ONLY be available for players who completed the Halloween Event 2025.

This means:

• ✅ Event completers: Halloween decorations unlocked in Decoration Shop
• ❌ Missed the event: No access to Halloween 2025 decorations

Possible Decoration Categories

Based on other Roblox games and community suggestions:

• 🎃 Seasonal themes (Halloween, Christmas, etc.)
• 🏆 Achievement displays (badge frames, completion trophies)
• 💡 Lighting options (different colored lights, neon signs)
• 🖼️ Wall decorations (posters, pictures, clocks)
• 🪴 Kitchen items (plants, decorative tools, themed counters)

Before diving into December's content, here's a recap of the November 28, 2025 Quality of Life update that laid the groundwork:

Changes Implemented

Phone Skip Explained

Many new players were confused about why phone introductions weren't playing. Here's how it works:

"Phone dialogues skip when everyone in the server has listened at least once."

What this means:

• First-time players in a fresh server: Full phone introduction plays
• Server with experienced players: Phone intro skips automatically
• Solution for new players: Play solo or with other beginners to hear instructions

This is a quality-of-life improvement for experienced players who already know the rules, but can confuse newcomers joining public servers.

The Discord community has been vocal about desired features. Here's what players are hoping to see in December:

Most Requested Features

1. Endless Mode Improvements

   • Leaderboards for high scores
   • New anomaly variations
   • Difficulty scaling options

2. New Game Passes

   • Cosmetic-only options
   • Team-based passes
   • Seasonal bundles

3. Private Server Enhancements

   • Custom difficulty settings
   • Anomaly toggles for practice
   • Speed modifiers

4. Quality of Life

   • Ingredient counter display
   • Order history log
   • Better multiplayer indicators

Developer Responsiveness

One thing the community appreciates about nv1sh is the responsiveness to bug reports. When givemeideasforone reported that the trash bag guy was appearing before the restless soul (breaking the game for new players), nv1sh responded:

"FUCKKKKKK FR IM STUPID AS HELL"
"best game developer 2025 phew nominate me rn"
"thank you for saying/reporting"

The bug was fixed promptly. This level of developer engagement bodes well for the December update quality.

Several bugs and issues have been reported that may be fixed in the December update:

Bug Reports from Discord

1. Throwing Items Invisible Wall

"every time i throw smth it rebounds back to me from an invisible wall"
"i can't throw colas at the customers anymore"
— naturdle, Discord

This bug affects cola throwing accuracy and may be related to hitbox issues.

2. Trash Bag Man Timing
Previously fixed, but the trash bag man was appearing before players could find the phone number poster, making Night 2 impossible for newcomers.

3. Halloween Decoration Display
Some players reported Halloween decorations not appearing even after completing the event. This is being investigated.

Difficulty Concerns

New players have expressed that the game is challenging:

"the game Is so tuff btw 💔😭"

The December update may include:

• Improved tutorial sections
• Clearer rule explanations
• Optional difficulty modifiers

Based on developer statements and update patterns:
