Seaside Cafe Story Reviews

very buggy and it wont let me save lol

Comfy simple game to put a dozen or so hours in and not regret it

tl;dr: Primarily for fans of Nusakana, those who want to support the developers, or those who want a chill time-waster. The game is set in Nusakana about a year after that game's ending, but you don't need to have played it to understand this one. + Same island of Nusakana, now (partly) rendered in 3d + Several of the first game's characters make a reappearance + Pretty relaxing to play + Remastered versions of some of Nusakana's tracks + There is an indefinite-length mode ? The story mode is pretty short ? Gameplay is pretty simple - Character interactions are much sparser than in Nusakana - about 12-20 lines of dialogue each. - Most of the original characters are elsewhere, so we only get to see how a few of them have changed or grown.

Simple fun cafe cooking, set in same world of Nusakana. You start off with few food menu to cook and make but soon you learn more and build a cafe to match your playstyle- go for get many customers or go few rich customers? It's your to decide. If you had play Nusakana before you will enjoys it, even you not have to play first one to know about this. Best piece? It's cheap and small game to pay! What are you wait for? Go buy it!

it was quite nice game But I had to stop playing it because this game has serious bug that can delete your save, just a big warning

Constant issues with the writing took me out of things, and the auto-text (which is automatically on) then sped on by before I could adjust. No save function and the instructions aren't clear.

The main story is pretty simple. Store management has enough variety in the game's span of story, knowing when to stock lots of sweets, or drinks, or certain type of foods. The game still require strategic thinking, as running blind and without proper preparation can actually lead you to softlock yourself due to lack of money to progress because you cannot stock ingredients. It took me around 2-3 tries. Nevertheless, a fun simple game to relax and not thinking too seriously of the story. I also love the callback of previous Nusakana game reference, it was cute touch.

I am in love with this game! The mix of 2d, 3d and pixel art is one of the most adorable visuals I have seen in a while :D Then there´s the combination of time management with budgeting plus juggling different recipes in the menu and that adds to the difficulty that made me struggle for a bit before getting the hang of it (but I´m still almost always broke XD)! The price this game is set at I´d say is more than fair and my kudos to the people that put together this charming game :)

It's a cute game and I'm having fun with it. I think certain things could be made clearer to the user though. I failed my first run and almost wrote a negative review based on the experience. It was my fault but I feel like if I had better visual cues I wouldn't have mad the mistake I did. I spent too much money. I didn't realise I was buying from the more expensive market cause foolish me thought it would have it's own tab or something. I was much more aware of the exclamation mark and red numbers second time around. I feel that you should be able to toggle your assistants before starting your day. I've misclicked more than once and spent 200 on an assistant I didn't mean to bring, I feel the current system is too punitive for that. You click them and you spend the money right away, no toggle or confirmation. One misclick and bam. Aside from that so far I am enjoying the game. It feels like a watered down Recettear or Atelier Anne - you just don't need to go gather / craft your items beforehand. I feel like I am always struggling for money though, I can never do multiple things (restock, research, explore). It's not a huge problem but I feel like it could be balanced a bit better. I'm always struggling between choosing progression or just making ends meet. From other comments and reviews I have seen the feeling of always being broke or close to broke seems to be a common theme, I think this needs more balancing. You get what you pay for, and for the price of this game what you get is acceptable. If you're a fan of the genre, try it out. Edit: OH! And when you upgrade you store size it resets all your decorations BUT IT DOESNT ASK YOU TO RESET THEM. Huge flaw IMO. Edit2: Got the 90 day bad ending now. Idk. This game seems a bit too punitive, it felt like I was doing well. I still recommend the game for the price, but it's a very cautious recommend.

This is a cute little game. It's not super difficult, nor is it a cooking simulator in any way. It's is however an easy going, chill cafe management game. I played and recorded a video on my experience if you're interested. Overall if you want something very in depth, it's not for you. If you're looking for a fun, light game with a story (and a half decent translation), that lets you pick a menu, build your skills and decorate a cafe by the beach of your dreams, then this is a fantastically priced little game. You can decorate btw, just have to put things where they allow you to, it's not freemode decorating, unfortunately. I hope this helped! Enjoy!
