  • story
    32 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in "Dragon Caffi" is described as cute and wholesome, focusing on a quest-based adventure where players take on tasks to bake desserts for various characters. While the game features a substantial number of quests (112 across 12 areas), many players feel that the narrative depth is minimal, with dialogues primarily serving quest purposes rather than contributing to a cohesive story. The gameplay is enjoyable and relaxing, but some users noted that the quest navigation could be improved for a smoother experience.

    • “Dragon Caffi is an adorable, wholesome puzzle story game which I am sad to say that I have finished.”
    • “The story is sweet; you are on your way to become a master baker, and you will travel the world looking for new recipes. Trust me, there are a lot of quests and recipes to find!”
    • “This is a really cute, casual, and relaxing game where the aim is to explore the world, completing quests as you go, collecting recipes, and then giving recipes to collect tokens.”
    • “There is almost no story to the game.”
    • “The rest of the dialogues that you get will only contribute to your quests, which are personalized for each quest giver.”
    • “Sadly, the quest log is fairly limited - it doesn't show what you need to do for quests that require several steps in their process.”
  • music
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally described as relaxing and charming, complementing the visuals well. However, many users find it repetitive and potentially annoying during extended play sessions, suggesting that additional sound effects or variety could enhance the experience. Overall, while the music contributes positively to the atmosphere, its lack of diversity may detract from long-term enjoyment.

    • “Completing quests after quests, areas after areas, makes me feel as if I'm achieving something, and the relaxing music helps me to enjoy the slow-paced gameplay.”
    • “It's so incredibly charming, from the music to the beautiful hand-drawn art.”
    • “The graphics are very well made, the music is sweet, but a little repetitive, although I didn't mind that very much.”
    • “Maybe some smaller sounds like the character's footsteps, nearby noises, and/or random rustles would help break up the main music.”
    • “Baking a dessert will require you to play one of the rhythm minigames, and since the music that is played is always the same, this might bore some people, even if the game tries to pick up the speed near the end.”
