About Espresso Tycoon

Espresso Tycoon is a brand-new approach to the old classic tycoon games you remember from your childhood. Build a coffee shop from your dreams, where your customers can relax and drink delicious coffee. Deal with the emotional rollercoaster and build a successful coffee business.

Just imagine… you’re the boss here! Feel like the real cafe owner, an empire builder, and create the whole strategy, which includes:
  • decorating
  • hiring and managing employees
  • taking care of the supply chain
  • analyzing the budget
  • advertising your coffee shop
  • and, what’s most important, keeping your customers happy
You have your favorite coffee, right? So do your customers. Do the market research to find out their preferences. Use a 3D coffee editor to make different recipes to delight them. You can combine multiple ingredients in a very creative way.
Start, build and develop your coffee shop. Check your budget - do you have enough money to invest, or will you have to make some cuts? Decide where and when you want to start your new coffee business. Hire (or fire) a barista, do the marketing campaign, create a relaxing place, and collect the rating points.
Complete all the missions!

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate Espresso Tycoon as a relaxing coffee shop management sim with satisfying drink creation and business mechanics, especially for those interested in cafe culture. However, the game struggles with repetitive gameplay that grows exhausting over time, limiting its long-term appeal despite solid assembly of assets and initially engaging mechanics.

I think this is game looks weird and controls poorly. It's not necessarily that engine is old, it's just poorly done. The first tasks during and after the tutorial made be bored instantly as well. If you like the concept of coffee shop business simulation, look very closely at the screenshots and videos to check if you can deal with the visuals and handling. Me personally, I can't take the creepy looks and bad UI.

Great game, the biggest mistake was using an Ai character/voice tutorial as the forefront for marketing. That kind of water-down your genuine hard work and authenticity behind the gameplay. Now the game just looks cheap.

Espresso Tycoon is a solid idle management simulator. It has its little quirks about it quality wise, but I am able to really sink some hours into it and there is a good amount of content to explore before you feel like you have done it all. The campaign felt easy during the earlier levels, but did get more difficult in the last few locations. It is scaled to introduce new management aspects and increasing customer criticism. At nearly 80 hours in game I still haven't beat the campaign. Japan is giving me a run for my money! I find myself compromising my morals to give these people mayo and fish sauce in their coffee and a negative bank balance is the thanks I get?! (Skill issue, not game) I also really enjoy the sandbox modes because the lack of objectives means I can run my shop at my own pace and really stack up cash and design points. I hire a manager for my sandbox shops and just let the time fly by under their supervision while I spend a great deal of time designing my shops and menus! My advice for success: Once you see a profit daily, do not pause the game time unless you really HAVE to. Idle time earning profit with no spending will really fatten up that bank account.…
