Coffee Talk, the barista's adventure

Discover Coffee Talk, an immersive visual novel that invites you to play as a barista in the city of Seattle. Take the opportunity to craft comforting beverages while engaging in conversations with endearing characters. With its soothing soundtrack and moving dialogues, this experience is perfect for those seeking a gentle and comforting narrative. If you want to escape and experience moments filled with empathy, this game will satisfy your desires!

Here’s an article, perhaps a bit off-series compared to the usual content of this blog. I’m presenting the video game Coffee Talk, a visual novel developed by the Indonesian independent studio Toge Productions. It’s a game I discovered by chance thanks to Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass affiliate link.

The game follows a barista, owner and sole employee of the eponymous café Coffee Talk in Seattle, Washington. Coffee Talk is an interactive experience. The game encourages you to listen to the characters, share their concerns, and help them by preparing hot beverages, combining the ingredients at your disposal. Coffee Talk offers a captivating immersion into lives as human as possible, featuring protagonists far more complex than simple humans.

It’s a relatively short game. However, it should simply be perceived as a story that carries you away thanks to its soothing music and measured dialogues. Some characters particularly touched me, plunging me into their situations. This game gave me a moment of calm: the feeling of playing under my duvet with a soft piano melody in the background, while reading a book.

Info
Good to know: Coffee Talk prioritizes atmosphere and storytelling over difficulty and complex mechanics.

If you’re looking for this type of experience, I highly recommend it. However, if you’re seeking excitement, complex game mechanics, or intellectual challenges, this game is not for you. It’s more akin to a story, to a tale to be savored leisurely.

I sometimes listen to the game’s soundtrack while making coffee with my Lelit.
