Coffee Barista
Run a busy coffee bar: read each ticket, build the drink from espresso, milk, foam and syrups, pour latte art and keep every customer happy through eight days of rush hours.
Coffee Barista is a cozy but fast café simulation about building every drink exactly as ordered. Each customer carries a ticket showing what goes in the cup. You tap espresso, milk, foam, water, syrups and ice to fill it, wait for the machine to finish, then serve. Some drinks ask for latte art, a hold-and-release pouring minigame where you stop the stream on the target ring to draw a heart, tulip or rosetta in the foam.
The café runs for eight days, each ending with a report and a small shop for upgrades such as a turbo espresso machine, a pro steam wand, cozy decor that makes people more patient, a tip jar and a pastry case. New ingredients and new drinks unlock as the days go by, rush hours pour customers in faster, and fussy critics reward perfect cups with extra pay and a heart. Five hearts are all you have: every walk-out or wrong drink costs one, so serve the most impatient ticket first. The first day is short and gentle so you can learn the flow within a minute.
Between runs you collect rank experience and coins for permanent perks and café colour themes. Every day offers three goals and a three-day daily shift with its own twist, like slow espresso machines or a latte art day, plus a streak bonus for coming back. Tip: start the shots and steamed milk first, then add the quick ingredients while they finish.
How to play
Look at the ticket for the selected customer, then tap ingredients to fill the cup to match it. Espresso and steamed milk take a moment to brew. When the cup matches, press SERVE. For latte art, hold to pour and release when the ring fills the target. Serve fast for bigger tips. Walk-outs and wrong drinks cost hearts; lose all five and the café closes. Survive all days to win. Score is the money earned plus a bonus for hearts left.
