Favorite game we love it we love tycoons.
The game is perfect the music is perfect its so relaxing.
Give this one a shot. Love the theme, art, & quirky events.
We are only playing it for the pick axe in PickCrafter.
Hey our wonderful citizens! This game- download it now! We love coffee and coffee craze is now one of our fav phone games! Ive only had Coffee Craze for one day and now Im addicted! Lol! Byeeeee.
We love your game it would be nicer if you could add codes in the game that would be awesome ty.
Creative easy paced game. No need to spend money unless you want too. You are only racing yourself. Lots of watch this video for bonuses. Devs are responsive in their Discord group.
We play this Bc we need a pickaxe in PickCrafter well thats all.
This game is relaxing an when u dont have much money in game after leveling everything u can walk away an go back to it later an find urself doing more to unlock more the way Im saying this might sound boring but to us its fun.
Its super addicting we only came here because of PickCrafter and to get a free pickaxe but since then we cant stop playing it.
Bro this game is really Grindy and its the game we have been looking for pick crafted was not our game but this this is just awesome you think this is a fake comment huh na we are 1000% REAL.
Its a really really good game but its kinda Grindy but if they were to make it easier to get money we think this would be a really good game.
You should get this app it is so fun we love it.
We found this game through Pick Crafter and found the game fun and playable without spending cash as the only option. Kudos for that nice balance. We can get repetitive with few little options to customize or stats to increase, especially since the footware you can change is hidden behind a counter. One option as an incentive to changing the managers outfit could be each article of clothing offers some stat boost when worn. A minor gripe is that you cannot remove a drink from a counter, only change a selection. This can get problematic during the events later in the game when youve used all your drinks across all of your counters. There should be an option to remove the last added counters drink, costing the price of the drink removed or how far down the counter list one is at. A bug found is the cat ears from the car event, not to confuse with the masked Cat Lady ears, does not show up on the managers head. A minor issue as the costumes add no functionality to the game. But still, it is a bug.
Pretty fun game. Nice little idle game. Lots of side-projects they send you off on. Its different, thats for sure.
Great game for those who like really easy games. We love it! There aren't any ads at all, except for unlocking special prizes. Very very easy game. We have a super old iPad and most games aren't compatible but this is.
We got this game and it was so fun! We love everything you can do in this game and we found out about it on PickCrafter we were playing it and saw PLAY OUR NEW GAME COFFEE CRAZE so we played it and SO ADDICTING!!! If you read this and dont have the game play it its SO FUN.
We just wanna say thank you fiveamp for making the game keep doing the updates on the game make building games.
We think it's a very Fun Game to Play When Bored and Also you should also download Pickcrafter so you can Get the Coffee Craze Pickaxe after You Finally Unlock GOLDEN GLADES or something like Dat. But it takes awhile to buy Because U need to save your Money.
We like the game but whenever we try to go to the Easter event the screen suddenly turns white and exits out of the game. It wasnt doing this before. Please fix it.
This game is so good! We want to collect ALL the coffee.
We only came here for the pickaxe at PickCrafter but anyways since this was shown then it must be good.
Great game if you have time to waste.
This game just makes u feel like we want coffe and open a business.
Now, we only played this game for the Plasma Pickaxe. But, Its so fun! We will get this Pickaxe in a ease! So far, we have 4 rebirths in PickCrafter. You obviously know we want to get better, with the plasma Pickaxe. It looks so extraordinary and marvelous! :O.
We really do love this game. Its fair with its progression and rewards, and overall a fun way to pass the time. However theres nothing much to do besides tapping & upgrading. We know thats kind of what the game is about, hence why we still have it 5 stars, but it does get boring after a while. The claw game is cool, especially since the took away the limit of watching ads to get more plays, so maybe if they added more mini games it would help? There also isnt any really difference between the different locations, they all feel the same except for cosmetic changes. Maybe if there was a little something different in each location to separate them from one another in terms of gameplay? Nothing major, but enough that we wont forget which location Im at. Overall great, all be it simple game:).
Kinda fun at the beginning. Then you hit the wait times on upgrades, which are ridiculously long. Use the crane to get lousy low value coffee. Two months in, we hit what we would describe as a mathematical wall. It seems we cant move forward until we let the game percolate to accumulate 1000 times our present value/production. Given the lack of excitement, Im not going to even try to watch THAT many ads or spend real money to push the game forward. It was a great idea, nice graphics and all, but the game now seems dead ended. Ive maxed a multiplier in each country, but that doesnt even seem to propel us forward enough. Fun while it lasted, disappointing in the end.
This is the best game we've played.
We like this because it is not glitchy or boring.
Good for long car rides. VERY ADICTIVE.
Really enjoying the game.. Well done.
We stayed up playing this game.
Only gave it four stars because it lags very bad and then after we play for a few minutes it crashes. Otherwise great game.
Great game please make updates with more to come so we can keep playing once we unlock everything.
Its a fun game to pass time also good for Pick crafter it jumped us up to the jungle when we were in cave.
Just started game but i5 Id fun so far.
We love this game its very nice to play and very fun our sis love it.
This has been one of the better games we have played. Keep up the good work.
Its the most fun game and Im positive.
We love this game! Usually we dont like games like this where you own your own store but this one is so fun! It isnt too hard to get money and gems, and there arent many ads. We recommend this game to everyone who is even the slightest interested in it.
We love the artwork. We love the variety of baristas and customers. We love that we can name our coffee shop. We named ours Black Beans, lol. The gameplay is simple and not too hard to get a hang of. However, we wish some things had an explanation on them, as we click something and dont really know what it does. Upgrading is easy, but confusing, sometimes. We didnt understand, at first, why we needed beans to upgrade something, but makes sense with the theme. Theres a lot to buy in the game, but you can play without needing to buy anything, so thats always nice and makes us more likely to buy something and support a developer who isnt greedy. The only ads we see are for the 2x profit bonus, so thats good. Though, sometimes, that button gets stuck and we have to exit out of the game completely to get it to work. There are tiny things that are a bit off, but its a new game so its understandable.
We started playing it today and we already love the game we do want a update for new character looks tho and well we guess thats it lol But either way this game is awesome.
It keeps freezing when we play and we know it is not our bad WiFi because every other app works very well, it makes it so we cant play the game and it keeps crashing.
Unable to update coffee types even though we have beans.
We pre ordered it and got it as soon as it came out and Ive had a great time playing it.
This game is so fun we loved everything about it and the art was amazing (we are a prep student) And this game was way funner than we had expected it to be and we loved it.
As addicting as the venti quad upside down caramel macchiato with coconut milk and extra caramel trust us dude CUTE IDLE GAME its like cookie clicker and rollercoaster tycoon starbucks in one.
Its super fun as showing u good tips for starting a business and super duper fun.
Excellent game! We love the art and impressed with the coffee theme. Perfect game to play while im waiting for our foam cold brew at starbucks. We found this from looking for slime games or a virtual slimeatory, but this is so much cooler! We really want to unlock the second country, from the screenshots it looks like there is a harry potter world.
