Coffee Talk

I played this game a while ago on my console i would 100% recommend this game for its wholesome story's and relaxing soundtrack

Juvenile, and very GenZ, BUT at the same time in an adult way. Relaxing, interesting story with a few light twists! A couple TINY sub-plots to stir things up a bit. LOVE this game so far !

A great cozy game if you want good storylines and a very relaxing feel. Play multiple times on the same Barista to get extra dialogues too. It doesn't have a lot of gameplay but that's almost the appeal of it. Your coffee choices can sometimes shape the ending in very subtle ways. The game itself is very short, but with all the reading it feels longer than it really is. There are other options to challenge your knowledge of your drinks and a more relaxed gameplay where you can get creative and find new drinks!

cozy, interesting, and SUCH a well-written story. totally addicted to the drink-making mechanic!

play this while sitting down in front of a big screen it feels like you are talking and being talked to the characters it adds a lot.

this is a story more than a game but it does has its tiny puzzles.

A lovely game with diverse characters ans stories. I played the sequel first a while back and loved it too.

A Cozy and Heartwarming Brew of Storytelling

Coffee Talk is a beautifully relaxing and thought-provoking experience that feels like sitting down for a warm cup of coffee on a rainy evening. It’s a narrative-driven game where you take on the role of a barista, listening to the stories of your customers while preparing their drinks. What makes this game special is its ability to blend cozy vibes with meaningful storytelling.

The characters are the heart of Coffee Talk. Each one has their own unique personality, struggles, and dreams, and it’s incredibly satisfying to watch their stories unfold over time. From a struggling writer to a vampire grappling with his identity, the game’s diverse cast is not only engaging but also serves as a reflection of real-world issues like relationships, societal pressures, and acceptance.

The gameplay is simple yet enjoyable. Crafting drinks based on customers' preferences adds an interactive layer to the story, and experimenting with ingredients to discover new recipes is surprisingly fun. The game doesn’t rush you, letting you take your time to enjoy the soothing atmosphere and immerse yourself in the lives of the characters.

What truly sets Coffee Talk apart is its incredible presentation. The pixel art is gorgeous, with a warm color palette that perfectly complements the game’s setting—a small café on rainy nights. The lo-fi jazz soundtrack is a standout feature, creating an ambiance that’s perfect for unwinding and losing yourself in the game’s world.

Coffee Talk is a short game, but it makes every moment count. It’s a perfect pick for anyone who loves visual novels, narrative-driven games, or just wants a cozy, calming experience. Whether you’re here for the engaging characters, the chill atmosphere, or the relaxing gameplay, you’ll find something to love in this little gem.

Thoughtful and filled with real conversations about life and love, with beautiful art to boot!

More of a visual graphic novel with mostly inconsequential interactions, but there's some parts where making certain drinks provide a little more dialogue you wouldn't have gotten otherwise. Overall though, really enjoyed it once I knew what to expect. Definitely gonna play the second one

Perfect for cozy gamers. I love that each character has a detailed backstory, and the drinks that players can make are also very cute. Can't wait to buy Coffee Talk 2 and 3 once I finish this one.

It's basically an interactive book filled with captivating stories and accompanied by amazing music. Plus, you get to brew delicious coffee and experiment with latte art. The whole experience is incredibly relaxing—definitely a 10/10!

Lovely art style and vibe, but ultimately there is too much talk and too little coffee.

I found it amazing from start to finish; the characters are very charismatic, and I really felt a personal connection with them, as if I were actually the barista there. The cozy atmosphere keeps bringing me back to the game whenever I'm tired of playing fast-paced or difficult games. It's a great way to relax man

10/10 Highly recommend!

Super cute! Similar to The Red Strings Club, not-so-subtly hiding modern relevance behind sci-fi fantasy. I wish there was more differences between play through's but overall it's worth playing a few times. The achievments are creative. It would be nice if the dialogue had some multiple choices.

Coffee Talk is like hanging out in your favorite late-night café, where the vibe is cozy, the jazz is smooth, and the stories are heartfelt. With its beautiful pixel art and simple but meaningful gameplay, you serve drinks while listening to customers’ stories about life, love, and struggles.

The mix of fantasy elements with real-world issues makes it both unique and relatable, and every interaction feels personal. It’s a perfect game to wind down with, offering a warm and comforting experience that lingers like a good cup of coffee.

It looks like my opinion of this game is pretty unpopular... I do always wish for indie games with a lot of heart and effort put into them to succeed (so I'm happy this game did well!), but unfortunately I didn't enjoy it.
The writing is the main focus of Coffee Talk, and in my opinion it's... pretty bad. It feels like a non-native English speaker wrote it. It has a lot of unnatural sentences and straight up mistakes at times. Some of the characters came across as unlikeable to me when it clearly wasn't the intention behind them.
Like I said, this game has clear effort and heart put into it, and if the writing was something I could just brush off, it would be a perfectly fine game. But because it's the main focus I just can't.

esta bien. es una novela grafica, lo de preparar cafe es apretar 4 botones, no tiene ninguna dificultad y parece ser una excusa para llamarlo juego

best game to ever game. downloaded bc of lua and baileys on the banner, and was not disappointed

I really liked the story for this game. The message spoke volumes. We may be different, but we are all the same deep down. The storyline, though very witty and funny, spoke volumes on the deeper things. I really enjoyed listening to each character's story. They are very detailed and in depth in personal levels. Despite these intricate differences, you can relate to most of them. Not to mention, you can experiment and make coffee along the way. I would highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoy's story based games that are chill and casual. It's beautiful, and the second time I played it, I discovered something cool! It really changed my perspective on things, and I really enjoyed what the creators did with it overall. 8.5/10 would recommend :)

Coffee Talk is a brewing sim set in an alternate reality where fantasy races like elves, mermaids, vampires, nekomimis, etc. coexist together with humans. The game gives off a very chill vibe with lofi music and cozy weather ambiance while letting you experiment with different brews and listen to the characters’ stories.

Despite its fantastical characters, their stories are familiar and relatable as it mirrors the real world we live in. Listening to the characters talk and rant about their everyday lives while serving them warm drinks and occassionally giving them advice is somehow comforting. I’ve been so invested and attached to these characters the whole time I was playing—all of them are likeable, interesting, and relatable in their own way and I found myself rooting for all of them. Gala and Hyde being my favorites; they give the best life advices. <3

I also love how mysterious The Barista (us, the main character) is. Somehow it feels like we’re not the MC but just the NPC—someone who’s there only to listen and be a friend to the main characters and serve them their favorite drinks. We know all of the main characters’ stories but we don’t even know anything about The Barista, yet the ending reveal tells you that there’s so much more to it than what we think. It’s easy to miss this part and end up not knowing the mystery so I felt the thrill when I was finally uncovering everything.

Coffee Talk is the perfect game to play when you just want to unwind and relax after a long day and listen to lofi music with rain sounds in the background. The list of drinks is very extensive and it’s nice that they also included some cultural drinks from different parts of the world. I love this game so much and I’d always go back to it whenever I want to just chill or when I miss talking to my midnight café regulars.

This game is always fun whenever I come back to it. If you like a chill relaxing time with a good story, I'd highly recommend this game.

Perfect game for a late night relaxation after a long day.

While the plot isn't anything groundbreaking (a lot of the plot point resolved way to quickly and easily for my taste), I really do dig most of the characters. Add the soundtrack and the vibes from this game are just....

Though I do wish the brewing mechanics were more involved, but oh well.

absolutely incredible game, I was so invested the entire time playing through the main story. I can't wait to finish all the achievements and play part 2 :)

I definitely recommend this game for it's Story. It is SO Good.

The amount of Drama and Talking is amazing... Especially certain characters that really effect relationships. Not only that but the Coffee/Tea Making is a really fun and important part of this game. NEVER get rid of this. I love experimenting and creating new Drinks. What I really do not like is how many times you can trash your drinks. Just allow me to trash drinks as much as I want please this is meant to be a Relaxing and Chill out sort of game not a force a drink on someone.

In fact I had to look up certain drinks because of only being allowed to trash your drink FIVE Times on each night.

Stayed for the Drinks and Stayed for the amazing Characters and Story.

beautiful, calming game. i genuinely love how nice it is, visuals and all

It's a great visual novel. Good writing, good setting, just, not enrapture enough to buy the second episode.

really nice and rekaxing game with slightly cringey dialogue

Absolutely amazing story-telling and dialogue that feels realistic. The game sets a tone that really enriches you into the feeling of sitting in a downtown coffee shop <3

Cosy and fluffy. I liked the characters and the idea for the game. It can be reassuring to immerse in this story in which everyone's problems are handled so delicately, at least it was for me.

Who am I? It is I, I am barista. Because of this game, I now know the joys of saying, "I'll take the usual please" and then explaining nothing to someone who is throwing random flavors in a cup and hoping that I enjoy whatever happens.

You slave away in an alternate universe posing as a barista where customers don't pay for anything and your own lifestyle is never addressed. Welcome to Coffee Shop, today's special is hot tea - but I'll be serving what I think you want instead.

Boring dialogues
Poor gameplay

I LOVE this gamee!! it's perfect for someone who's always curious and nosy about other people's lives like yess, please tell me your life's story, your traumatic experiences that shaped you. I'm willing to listen 🙏 The characters are amazing (especially Hyde), and their development throughout the game is amazing. It's also my fav cosy game to play before bed ( i may or may not have fallen asleep while playing few times). I also love the drink-making aspect, even though i sometimes have to look up recipes because i keep messing up the ingredients. overall, 10/10 would recommend!

Really good game, did not expect ir for such a short playtime.

A nice cozy coffee game with cute characters.

good game, love the atmosphere and writing. overall 10/10 peak fiction.

5.5/10

This is one of those games I eyed for the longest time, started playing on my switch, and finally rediscovered on my PC, and I'm so glad I did. It's so cozy, the story plotline makes sense, and i love the whimsy of just being a simple barista for fantasy creatures. 10/10.

sweetbitter simulator in new york but in an alternative universe

game ini mewakili salah satu keinginan saya untuk membuka kedai kecil dimana orang orang bisa singgah sebentar melupakan semua bebannya sambil minum minuman hangat. kedai yang dimana kita bisa mengenal orang orang unik yang terkadang bisa membuat hidup kita lebih baik. terlepas dari itu semua game ini berhasil memberikan rasa sebagai seorang barista dengan pelanggan setianya yang selalu tergantung akan minuman dari kita. walaupun artnya pixel, tidak membuat visual dari game ini jelek, justru karena artnya itulah yang membuat game ini jadi lebih intimate kepada pemain. musik yang diputar juga tidak kalah cocok dengan artnya, yaap musik cozy yang mengisi telinga kita ketika bermain membuat kita benar benar berada dalam sebuah coffee shop yang diluarnya lagi hujan. kita jadi merasa tenang sambil seruput minuman hangat yg dipesan sambil menikmati dingin hujan di malam hari. game ini sangat cocok dimainkan sambil bersantai menikmati hari tentu dengan cemilan dan minuman hangat sebagai pendampingnya. sekian

its super chill, i use it to wind down on a stressful evening, the story line was surprisingly funny and having to remember certain customers orders actually made it feel more personal as you learn little details about each person you meet... ohhh and the drama at times its willldddd

Very cozy, if your looking for something, to just sit and relax with, this would be a good pick, I wish there were more interaction besides making coffee, and clicking through the chats. Very story rich, and I'd say it could be cheaper, I don't usually play visual novels, but it has an engaging story, so if your into that kinda thing, give it a go.

This game was a good casual option for outside of the other games I’ve played especially the coming from action-type games.

loved this game, pretty dam cozy but i think the steam achievements are a little bugged atm

Very chill and relaxing game. It's got a VIBE, man. The stories are fun to hear and the metaphor that it portrays in contrast to our reality is certainly not subtle (but not forcibly beaten over the head). It's definitely like 90% visual novel / 10% running your coffee/tea shop so definitely go in with that expectation. It a shorter run time (about 4-5 hours) which is perfect for a cozy weekend game.

This game got me through a rough patch of loneliness and depression and I feel like I owed it to the game to get 100% achievement completion. Everything about it brings relaxing vibes and helps ground you in reality and come to peace with things. The music is a fitting cozy lofi track, each character has a heartfelt and emotional story to tell, and the pacing/gameplay allows you to enjoy the game stress free however you please. I also had a lot of fun discovering all the different drink combinations. For anyone looking for a good narrative, some life experiences to gain wisdom from, and a cozy atmospheric experience, this is a perfect game.

This is one of the coziest games I've ever played. Listening to patrons and serving drinks was so soothing for me that I had to look up games similar to this one after I finished playing. I'll probably revisit it in the future when I need a doze of peace and tranquillity. It brought me a tremendous amount of peace and I loved getting to know all the patrons and following up on their lives. The perfect game to play when you would like to take your mind off things and just relax and chill listening to the calming soundtrack and everyone's stories.

we love herrr. honestly my go-to game before i go to sleep, it's like watching a series and then sometimes making coffee. but because it is almost completely a story-line game you could possibly get the same enjoyment from watching someone do a play-through

As much as it's called Coffee Talks, sadly, the game didn't speak to me much. The only thing it did was try and serve me a "depresso," which felt stale and lacking in depth of flavor. The characters are well-designed and appealing, as is most of the game's art. However, when it comes down to actual gameplay or story, the game is subpar.

The game has its aesthetics down visually and musically, though the music is such generic coffee house music that it never really stands out. It fits the vibe I felt they were going for and thus performs its role, I guess.
Overall, this game isn't very long and can't muster up anything of greater interest or connect you with its characters within that time. As much as it pretends some of them are your regular customers, who you are already well-acquainted with, it falls short.

I'd pass on this game and recommend trying out VA-11 HALL-A instead, as it is similar in concept but far better in execution.
