Cafe Crush Reviews

This game was very well done, the english actors were on point, and overall a great VN. My only con would be that its too short for how well done it is. i hope to see more from this creator in the future :)

Easy day in the life game with the chance to find love and make friends. It's really cute and fun.

The price says it all about the game. It's short, the scenes are mediocre, and don't even get me started on some of the voices... ugh... I can still hear the horrible audio quality. Regardless, this seems like a beginner game at best, but overall an unrecommended one.

OK so it's good, great art, acceptable music, nice UI, fully voice acted in English, intelligible dialogue, low price. I feel like I ought to mention that there is a brief hidden object puzzle, that causes an error screen when you beat it, and they just left it in there. It seems rather disrespectful to your customers to just leave it like that. If a feature is broken, you need to remove it. If you took it out of the game I don't think it would ruin the experience by its absence, but it does ruin it somewhat by it's jank-ass presence, so please fix it or cut it. Show us that you care enough about your product to cut out a broken mini-game. Kthanxbai. 100% Wholesome and seiso. Adorable. Don't feel bad for having played it. It is rather short. Beat the game in the play time you see above. Although it seems there are a number of alternate endings / paths that I did not complete.

It's okay I guess. It feels a bit rushed overall. I had one of the girls (not even the one I was going for lol.) confess her love to me even though we literally just met 3 days ago. BUt this seem to be the dev's first game. And I gotta say for a first game that's impressive. Although it is short it does seem to be polished and thought out.

As a debut work (according to Steam's archives), this is pretty impressive work. However, compared to the vast library of dating sims/visuals novels out there, there's not much about Café Crush that makes it worth even its short runtime. The mini-games aren't very creative or engaging, and the development of the relationships built between the MC and the girls feels unnatural over the course of only a few days(?). Selling point is clearly the art, which definitely appeals, and one girl's ending is hilariously absurd (in a good way). Yet these attributes can't save what's an overall forgettable experience with a really nice color palette.

Cafe Crush is a little bit shorter than I was hoping but it scratched a very particular itch that I had after playing a coffee-themed visual novel demo earlier this year. The full game (that went with the demo I played) still has not come out yet but I've been really looking forward to it so when I saw this title pop up on the Steam store, I went ahead and picked it up immediately. There are three basic routes that you can follow in the game but how well you do at each route seems to be determined by either A) your helpfulness B) your coffee knowledge or C) your baking/minigame skill/knowledge. The path I chose required coffee knowledge that I did not have so hopefully if you go that same route, you know a little bit about different types of coffee-based drinks. The price is just about right for the length of the game (and mild replayability) so I think it's worth it. If you're still on the fence, go ahead and check out my video and decide for yourselves if this is something you think you might like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_F15EVWKGM

I love the art. However, the whole story takes place over 5 days. Their is little to no actual storyline aside from you all work in a cafe (some badly). The characters and romance have no progression or direction. Its just over too quickly to be good. I really wanted to like it but was left disappointed. there are just better ones out there.

Cafe Crush is a really short Visual Novel with 3 Girls. Playing all routes took me just around an hour and to be totally honest I feel like this VN just doesnt have much of a great Story or anything. The Endings are all pretty much a copy of each other and there is nothing happening that would be interesting or surprising. The Game itself is fine and I like the Minigames however for me the Plot and Story and also the Character Developlment especially in a Romance Game are just the most important thing. In Cafe Crush however I felt like the Game is more focused on giving the right answears and doing good in the Minigames. If you just want some fairly cute Girls and try the Minigames and little quizes then you should maybe consider buying this but otherwise there are just better VNs out there with even very similar Settings. Just get Nekopara as an example. Also considering the length and Price I would say that it is a little overpriced. Small little Extra, I like that there is Voice acting and that it is even in English, but I felt like the Voices didnt match the Girls and some of the Voice Actors had pretty bad Soundquality. All in all I'd give this a 5.8/10 Check out my Curator Page: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/34401214/

Cafe Crush could be a fun little game, but it generally fails at being fun. This VN is extremely short. It takes about an hour, or even less, to 100% complete the game. You play as a typical cliché shut-in guy, who decides to get a part-time job at the Kitty Café, and maybe hook up with one of its workers in the meantime. The writing is pretty bland and the story honestly failed to catch my attention; maybe if the game was longer it would have a better story and relationship development. Summary: - The story isn't good, too short and poorly developed. - Artwork is cute. - English voice acting. - Mini games such as memory game and hidden object. - Quizzes about coffee. - Very rushed romance, which feels unnatural. - All of the endings are basically the same, but with different girls. One is pretty weird, as I didn't really see that coming. Overall, this is a pretty boring dating sim with cutesy artwork, which just isn't fun storywise or in terms of gameplay, even with all the mini games. I enjoy all kinds of VN lengths, but this is really not done well. I got this game before the price was reduced, so at least now it has a more reasonable price for the content it provides. So to sum up, I really can't recommend this game. If you're looking to waste an hour of your time, then get it on sale.
