Barista Simulator

Pra começo de conversa o jogo usa uns 3 ou 4 botões diferentes pra interação. Você pode mudar os botões, o que é bom, mas ainda continua com uma jogabilidade nada prática. O Tutorial inicial te explica menos do que o básico, não sei se é culpa da tradução ou do tutorial em si. E a tradução... Nunca vi uma tradução tão medonha em toda minha vida! Algumas partes estão em português, outras em espanhol, e você nem tem a opção de trocar de idioma pelo menu do jogo. Paguei só 10 reais no jogo, e ainda assim pedi reembolso.

The controls are terrible. Instead of clicking the mouse, it's: click E, click R. What's that supposed to mean? It's like learning to program. I don't recommend it. It's a waste of time.

Barista Simulator, developed and published by CubeCube Sports Ltd., is a detailed first-person simulation that aims to replicate the day-to-day realities of running a coffee shop with a strong emphasis on authenticity. Rather than simplifying the process for accessibility, the game leans into the technical aspects of coffee preparation, inviting players to learn the intricacies of brewing, serving, and managing a café. From the beginning, it positions itself as a more serious simulation experience, one that requires attention to detail and a willingness to engage with its systems on a deeper level. The centerpiece of the game is its coffee-making mechanic, which is both immersive and demanding. Players must prepare a wide variety of drinks by following precise steps, including grinding beans, extracting espresso, steaming milk, and assembling beverages according to specific recipes. Each stage requires careful execution, and even small inaccuracies can lead to poor results. This focus on precision gives the process a strong sense of realism, making successful orders feel genuinely satisfying. At the same time, it introduces a steep learning curve, as players are expected to remember measurements and workflows, especially when handling multiple orders at once. Beyond the preparation of drinks, the game expands into full café management, adding another layer of complexity. Players begin with a modest setup and gradually build their business by upgrading equipment, unlocking new recipes, and improving the overall environment of their shop. Managing inventory, maintaining machines, and ensuring customer satisfaction become key responsibilities as the café grows. The inclusion of staff management allows players to delegate tasks over time, shifting the experience from hands-on work to a broader managerial role. This progression creates a sense of growth that keeps the experience engaging over longer play sessions. The pacing is shaped by a time-based system where customers arrive with specific orders and expectations. Players must balance speed and accuracy, as delays or mistakes can negatively affect reputation and earnings. This introduces a level of pressure that contrasts with the otherwise methodical nature of the gameplay. Early on, the combination of time constraints and complex preparation steps can feel overwhelming, but as players become more familiar with the mechanics, a natural rhythm begins to form. This gradual mastery is one of the more rewarding aspects of the experience. Visually, the game adopts a realistic style that supports its simulation focus. The café environment and equipment are designed to resemble real-world counterparts, contributing to a sense of immersion. While the overall presentation is functional and effective, it does not always feel polished, with certain animations and interface elements lacking refinement. The user interface, in particular, can feel dense at times, especially for newcomers trying to navigate the various systems and tools available. An interesting element of the game is its occasional departure from strict realism. While most of the experience is grounded in accurate procedures, there are moments of exaggerated or unexpected behavior that add a touch of personality. These instances can provide a break from the otherwise structured gameplay, though they may feel slightly inconsistent with the overall tone of the simulation. Despite its depth, the game is not without its challenges. The complexity of its systems can be intimidating, particularly for players unfamiliar with coffee preparation. Repetitive tasks may begin to feel monotonous over time, especially during longer sessions where the same processes are repeated frequently. Additionally, the level of micromanagement required can be exhausting, as players must constantly monitor multiple aspects of their café to maintain efficiency. Even with these drawbacks, Barista Simulator succeeds in offering a comprehensive and engaging look at the craft of coffee-making and the responsibilities of running a café. Its commitment to realism and detailed mechanics sets it apart from more casual simulation titles, providing a rewarding experience for those willing to invest the time to learn its systems. While it may not appeal to everyone due to its demanding nature, it stands as a solid and immersive simulation that captures the essence of its subject. Rating: 8/10

Как бывший Бариста апруваю что данная игруля реалистичная в плане ПОВ от Бариста) есть мелкие баги и недочеты но в целом атмосфера кофейни передана хорошо. Успел даже выгореть от работы) Р- РЕАЛИЗМ) ознакомится геймплеем можете тут : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8htUzZrrrk

I love sim games but this just didn't do it for me. I'm sure it is better mid to late game but it felt like it was going to be such a chore just getting past the beginning stages that I would rather play something else. The controls really felt janky and you get to feeling really rushed just to make a single cup of espresso since it takes a fair amount of time and steps to do so while your customers are getting more and more angry. It looks like there hasn't been updates since beginning of 2025 so I guess this is it. Not the game for me.

Just too slow to make a single order making it unplayable

[h1]ゲーム性は素晴らしいが[/h1] セール時に購入しました。 自分のカフェを自分の思い通りに作れるのは素晴らしいけど、 日本語への翻訳にあまり力を入れていないのか、文字が潰れて四角になったりフォントがばらばらになったりする。 しかし、新しいエスプレッソマシンを購入したり最近のアップデートではオリジナルのメニューを作ることができるようになったので十分に楽しめる。 序盤は、お客さんを待たせてしまうかもしれないが、機材をアップグレードしたりスタッフを雇えばある程度暇な時間はできる。
