About
The life of a Cat Cafe Manager awaits! Your grandmother left you a small cafe in the sleepy village of Caterwaul Way, and it's up to you to fix the place up, impress the locals, and befriend the local cat population. Time to roll up your sleeves, break out the tools, and start hammering away. Your cat cafe can be the talk of the town with the right attitude, menu, and of course, the right cats.
That's right, Caterwaul Way is home to a plethora of extraordinary felines. The cafe can become their home, to the delight and relief of the villagers. Who knows, maybe their presence will loosen tongues and help you discover the secrets of Caterwaul Way... cats and take them off the streets, giving them a home.
The cafe is run-down and abandoned by the time you arrive, but it's nothing that a little bit of elbow grease (and money) can't fix.
Renovate the cafe, then decorate and expand it as you see fit and create a welcoming place for cats - and people - to relax in!
Build up a capable staff by hiring the right people, managing their workload, and helping them refine their skills.
Refine your cafe experience further with custom dishes and other menu items, catering to your customer's needs.
A good cafe is more than just a restaurant with good food and drinks. The difference lies in relationships. At Caterwaul Way, that means befriending cats and townsfolk alike.
Befriend and build relationships with a diverse cast of local villagers, such as Finley, a young musician trying to make it big, or Bonner, the local ferryman who's got some very tall stories to tell.
Look after the local cats, befriend, and, eventually, adopt them. Each stray cat is unique and will make your cafe a little different.
Keep your human and feline friends happy to unlock clues and eventually learn the secrets of Caterwaul Way.
Caterwaul Way has a long and mysterious history - and many festivals celebrating it. If you want your cat cafe to become a staple of the village, plan accordingly!
Travel the town, interact with the locals, and discover new recipes and opportunities for your cafe.
And, if all goes well, maybe you'll crack the mystery of the crumbling, ancient shrine to an old feline god in the forests near Caterwaul Way...

It's simpler than I thought it would be, but cute and an addicting little diversion for a bit. I completed the game in under 100 game days. About 10 hours. I received it through a bundle. It was a little glitchy. The pacing was a bit odd, I'll admit. I see that they're making a second one, so I hope they polish it up more there.
— Can't rotate furniture/objects (maybe you can later, but I find it the most basic feature that should exist for accessibility and implemented in a gameplay's core) — Can't rotate the map or change the point of view in any way (this isn't even a proper 2D in my opinion) — Can't click/operate with the mouse only to tell the character where to go, which I found a deal breaker with this game. The controls suck, which leads to accessibility sucks. For a game that looks this simple, having to operate it with WSDA only doesn't make sense to me. — I noticed some weird stutters when the game was loading, which is really weird, considering this game is basically a tiny bag of peanuts on an airplane that is my PC. (Also, those loading screens could have some cute artworks, concept art rather than a black screen with a loading bar). Picked it up with like 70% off and still refunded after 45 minutes (usually I'm at least interested to see the first 2 hours, but not with this game). The game's progress is too slow (not enough resources, the shop mechanic isn't exactly explained. For example, I couldn't understand how to buy a table: on some days it's in the furniture's store, on some days it's not). The game is repetitive. I didn't like the characters and their dialogues (often monologues). Trying to introduce the mechanics through them felt forced. The character customization barely exists: not enough hairstyles, you can't change clothes, you can't change facial features, can't change the character's eye color. Overall, for something that is advertised as a cozy relaxing game, I found it way too stressful, tedious, and boring. The cafe management is all the same with every guest: do the small talk, give them the food/drink they want, wait for them to leave. Rinse and repeat. The cat adoption system seems to be just... for the sake of collecting more and more cats? Which I find pointless, honestly. And why allow to rename cats when the achievements still have assigned names to a specific cat? I didn't like the game even one bit, unfortunately. It doesn't really have a soul in my opinion, and feels more like an alpha concept of a bigger game with better graphics and controls, if that makes sense? Or a flash game on your browser, like someone else pointed out in the review. I very much agree with that. Whatever the case is, I wouldn't recommend this game to other people even if the game was free.
A really short cafe manager, but still a good experience. I love all the little characters.
Its got charm. A cute and short cafe management sim, the only major flaws are controller keybinds and staff AI. I sold more items by accident than I ever wanted to on purpose, and the number of times I've seen my crew just stand idle and utterly uncertain of what to do when right next to what needs doing is astounding. That said, surprising depth! Only game from the dev, but it mechanically it feels thought out and engaging. Economics are a ro-sham-bo, each customer pays with something different, and you might want to stop advertising to some types of people to get just one thing for a bit at the start, and customer needs always feel varied enough without becoming absolutely arbitrary, often achieved by just giving them something another customer type might have wanted at an earlier level - witches at level 3 wanting to just talk like how fishermen always have a chance of wanting is an example.
addictive
Después de unas 16 horas de juego y con todos los logros completados, puedo decir que Cat Cafe Manager me ha dejado una muy buena impresión. Es un juego relajado y muy entretenido, perfecto para desconectar. La gestión del café es sencilla de entender, sin mecánicas innecesariamente complicadas, y el sistema de construcción y decoración ofrece suficiente libertad para personalizar el local a tu gusto. Además, los NPC tienen bastante personalidad y aportan un toque de humor que hace que el pueblo resulte muy agradable. Antes de jugar había leído varias opiniones que mencionaban bugs, pero en mi partida no he encontrado ningún problema técnico digno de mención. La experiencia ha sido fluida de principio a fin. Lo recomendaría especialmente a quienes disfruten de los juegos de gestión acogedores y sin estrés. Eso sí, no esperes un juego al que dedicar cientos de horas: tiene una duración contenida y, una vez completado el contenido y los logros, probablemente lo dejarás con la sensación de haber vivido una experiencia redonda, sin que se alargue más de la cuenta. En mi caso, ha sido una experiencia muy positiva y me alegro de haberle dado una oportunidad.

Very fun and cute game! I beat it after around 8.5 hours. I have very few qualms, but most are to do with the staff. I didn't realize i could turn off certain skills or reallocate points so i kind of messed up there. The staff AI will also just stand in places for an hour in game sometimes despite there being work and a path. Overall this game is a 8/10 for me :)
Простенька, але приємна і затишна гра. Рекомендую всім, хто хоче просто розслабитись і покайфувати :)
