The gameplay of this cafe simulator is characterized by its engaging mechanics for coffee roasting and drink creation, offering a well-paced progression system that allows players to unlock new features and locations. While the graphics are charming and the gameplay loop is initially enjoyable, many players note that it becomes repetitive and shallow over time, especially as they master the mechanics and complete the available content. As the game is still in early access, there are hopes for future updates to enhance variety and depth in gameplay.
“Progression is well-paced and fairly linear, unlocking gameplay through custom drink creation and roasting as you play, in addition to the usual better machines, new locations, and bigger numbers.”
“The clear linear progression and leveling up system along with the game having a nice fun gameplay loop was fantastic.”
“The mechanics are sound, the graphics are smooth, and the menus are easy to read.”
“The gameplay is pretty shallow, but that's to be expected for a game still in development.”
“Can get repetitive and more boring towards the end as you've already learned all of the mechanics of the game and there's nothing new to add really, and your only goal becomes to reach a certain reputation which basically just means waiting for your shop to serve enough customers to up your reputation, rather than aiming for anything specifically to complete the quest.”
“The idea is great, the concept has great potential, but the game just lacks gameplay, thrill, depth, logic, challenge, realism.”
