The year is 2020, the city is Seattle. The great war is almost nothing but a distant memory, and each of the different races coexist among one another in relative peace. On a certain street corner stands a certain coffee shop that only opens when the sun goes down- the titular Coffee Talk. You are the owner and lone barista of that shop, and your job is to serve a hot drink and lend a listening ear to each of the customers who visit.Coffee Talk is an indie game developed by Toge Productions, a game studio based in Indonesia. The game mixes elements of Visual Novels with visual aesthetics inspired by 90s anime, classic pixel art adventure games, and the imagery associated with lo-fi chillhop music. Being a game about a coffee shop, the main game mechanic in Coffee Talk is naturally the drink-making feature, in which you try to serve each customer a drink made of three of the ingredients you have available. Over the course of two weeks you see several storylines play out through the conversations that take place within Coffee Talk, and whether you can fulfill each customer's order or not may affect what direction those stories take.The game released on January 29, 2020 for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, with PC versions available through Steam, GOG, Windows 10 and Itch.io. It also has a demo available on Steam and GOG.A sequel, Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly, was announced in late 2021 and was released on April 20th, 2023. It adds two new ingredients, the eponymous hibiscus and butterfly pea, and features a new mechanic where you can give your customers gifts in addition to serving them their drinks.Tropes | |

The fourth stinger: Fahmi himself drops by along with Freya, the latter who introduces him to the Barista as her friend who'll be moving in with her to the writer's residency. Freya then excuses herself to prepare for the trip, while Fahmi reunites with his cat Tofu, the white cat that has been occasionally visiting the café. Fahmi then orders his favorite drink, Green Tea Latte, and tells the Barista that Freya will show him around Seattle the next day before they settle at the writer's residency the day after. The Barista wishes him and Tofu the best of luck on their journey. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: According to her Tomodachill profile, Freya's favorite author is Geil Naiman. In Episode 2, one of Lucas's status updates is him asking if "@mloydfayweather", the game's equivalent of Floyd Mayweather Jr., is available for a boxing match. It's also a reference to Logan Paul's match against the latter in 2021. | |

| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_143c304b | comment |
Vegetarian Vampire: According to Hyde, an experimental synthetic blood substitute was developed not too long before the start of the game. He mentions that he's one of the vampires trying a "vegan diet", and he used to get "blüdwyne", a synthetic blood drink, from the café back when it used to be a bar. | |

Local Reference | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_1590c545 | comment |
Local Reference: There are a few references to Toge Productions' home country, and by extension, Southeast Asia: You can brew STMJnote an Indonesian drink made of milk (susu), egg (telur), honey (madu), and ginger (jahe), jahe tubruknote Indonesian coffee with ginger, and teh tariknote Malaysia's national drink. In fact, the Barista traveled around SEA a few years ago to learn how to brew these drinks. "The Anxious Boy and His Love Stories on Public Transport", one of Freya's articles for The Evening Whispers, is set in Jakarta. In Episode 2, Hendry says that "the rice has turned into porridge" if the Barista gives him the wrong drink. It's an Indonesian proverb that means that there's no point in regretting a mistake that's too late to be fixed. | |

Tempting Fate: Episode 2 begins on a stormy night, and the Barista struggles with working at the café with an intermittent power source. After serving their first two customers, the Barista remarks that despite the heavy rains, at least the power is stable, only for a blackout to happen right after saying that. | |

Our Elves Are Different | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_15fc9fb | comment |
Our Elves Are Different: According to Baileys in Episode 2, it's a common misconception that elves never get sick, because while they're immune to mild infections such as colds, they can still get sick from major diseases and die from them. However, elven society believes that living the right life will let them die peacefully in bed, so they just pretend that everything is fine until the last moment. This was why Baileys' family shut his great-great-aunt away during her final few weeks. | |

All There in the Manual: Gala at one point mentions that Hyde got married not long before they met, but Hyde's spouse never comes up at any other point in the game and, tellingly, he doesn't wear a wedding ring. One of the side comics on the official Coffee Talk Twitter account reveals that Hyde did indeed get a divorce several years ago. | |

Relationship Values: Meeting each character adds them to your friend list on the social network site Tomodachill. The more you interact with each character by getting their orders right, the more information appears on their profile. Getting their orders wrong will likewise make them hide their profile info from you, but they stop doing this in Episode 2. | |

In Hendry's first visit, he tries to figure out how to relate to his daughter better by striking up a conversation with Freya and Aqua for ideas. Unfortunately, leading with asking about their age and about "what kinds of things kids like doing" comes off in a way he didn't intend. It doesn't help that he suddenly moves closer to the girls while doing so. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: Lua's all-French self-summary on Tomodachill is taken from the opening stanza of Clair de lune, the poem that inspired the famous Debussy song (a remix of which is on the game's soundtrack). The poem is about a tragic romance, and the first stanza, in particular, speaks of "charming masquerades and dancers... almost sad beneath their fantastic disguises," which speaks to Lua's fears that her relationship with Baileys can't last. | |

| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_29c50e28 | comment |
Trial-and-Error Gameplay: Sometimes, a customer will order something off the menu, so you'll have to experiment with the ingredients until you get their special discoverable drink. Ingredient quantity and especially the order matter since for example, the recipes for generic honey lemon green tea and Cough Syrup are not the same even if they use the same ingredients. Some customers will even give you a hint on this if you mess up their orders for special drinks this way. | |

Bland-Name Product: When Freya talks about the non-linearity of her novel and how she plans to make it mainstream, she compares it to a Choose Your Own Adventure show on NetStream that strategically used its marketing to reach the mainstream audience. Strangely, she namedrops the original streaming service in her article "Loving in Silence", implying that they both exist in the setting. In the bonus comic "Wanna Be My Mate?", Neil learns the name of the dating app with a fire logo that Earthlings use: Kindlr. Episode 2: Lucas wears a yellow Guxxi hoodie while Riona works as a Grüver driver making intercity deliveries. Strangely for the former, the real clothing brand is mentioned in the Evening Whispers poem "Sing Your Body Electric", implying that they both exist in the setting. One of Lua's status updates has her asking Baileys if he was quoting a saying he found on Rumblr. | |

Not long after, Freya walks in looking absolutely terrible. It's a big hint that, in order to get her best ending, you need to serve her a Bedchamber instead of her usual triple-shot espresso, no matter how much she insists otherwise. | |

No Body Left Behind | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_3c7ccb69 | comment |
No Body Left Behind: In Episode 2, semi-spiritual beings such as fairies don't leave behind bodies when they die. Instead, they may leave specific land-markers. The dead hawthorn tree that was uprooted in January 2023 was the "body" of the fairy that was killed by a drunk driver in 1959, but since it wasn't legally classified as a "remains", the witnesses couldn't prove that there was a body. The case was dismissed on the grounds of that and the victim being a "transient". Other semi-spiritual beings such as banshees can't leave land-markers, so they simply disappear instead. | |

Outcast Refuge | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_46b62ac8 | comment |
Outcast Refuge: Two are mentioned in Episode 2: The Society for Aliens and Various Extraterrestrials, or S.A.V.E., aims to help aliens who are trying to adapt to Earth life and are hiding from F.I.R.E. agents, who hunt them down, even those disguised as Earthlings, to extradite them. The café that Silver opened turns out to be a secret base for S.A.V.E. In the late 50's, there used to be a flea market established by fairies, who were classified as "transient" beings or unregistered citizens, which included "uncategorizable" beings such as fairies at the time. The market served to help "transients" survive the changing times, and it also hosted "Fairy Week", where fairies would mark the intersection with flowers to raise awareness of their plight. Sadly, the market was forcefully disbanded in 1961 due to the accident that killed a fairy vendor two years prior. | |

The Stinger | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_48081842 | comment |
The Stinger: After the credits roll, Neil returns to your coffee shop and tells you that he assumed human form because he was aware of the F.I.R.E agent hunting him down. He also reveals that he's aware of your Save Scumming powers because that's one of the powers of his alien race. Episode 2 has multiple stingers, which change depending on how many endings you've seen. Once you've seen all of them, you can't see them again unless you create a new file: The first stinger: Riona returns to the café to look for an item she dropped. She tells the Barista that she's found it, reminding them that they should double-check their drawer to make sure not to drop anything again. Riona then gives them a hint to replay the game to find out what's causing some of their items to mysteriously disappear. The second stinger: An invisible customer enters the café, and the Barista serves them and tells them that they're welcome to visit anytime. The third stinger: Lucas drops by the café to encourage the Barista to continue "checking things off their checklist", a subtle reminder to continue finding the other endings to see the next stinger. The fourth stinger: Fahmi himself drops by along with Freya, the latter who introduces him to the Barista as her friend who'll be moving in with her to the writer's residency. Freya then excuses herself to prepare for the trip, while Fahmi reunites with his cat Tofu, the white cat that has been occasionally visiting the café. Fahmi then orders his favorite drink, Green Tea Latte, and tells the Barista that Freya will show him around Seattle the next day before they settle at the writer's residency the day after. The Barista wishes him and Tofu the best of luck on their journey. The fifth stinger: The Barista turns off the lights before the scene cuts to black. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: At one point, Freya describes her novel to Baileys as being similar to a Gamebook, but with each choice being given a score that determines which route the reader takes... in short, like a video game or Visual Novel. When giving Aqua advice for MAX East, Myrtle suggests ending her demo on a Cliffhanger. The original Coffee Talk demo did something similar. | |

She also complains that overtime being "optional" is a passive-aggressive remark from the company because the workers are made to feel guilty if they go home early to rest and visit their families. | |

Do Well, But Not Perfect | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_5049f19d | comment |
Do Well, But Not Perfect: In Challenge Mode, when a customer orders a drink of a certain flavor, they will sometimes specify whether they want no flavor, less of it, or extra. However, if they don't specify, they want the flavor with 4-5 parts — not too much and not too little, so over- or under-doing it will count as an incorrect order. Episode 2 has achievements for completing characters' normal story arcs, which is separate from completing their good arcs; this entails screwing up on an order or two but otherwise being a good barista for said characters. | |

But Thou Must!: Of the "it doesn't matter which answer you pick" variety. Sometimes, when you brew up a drink for a customer, the story will continue even if what you brewed wasn't even close to what was ordered. The only thing that changes is the customer's dialogue, with differing reactions based on how close you came to what they wanted. There's even differing reactions if it doesn't have the ingredients they wanted, but had the right flavor. | |

Episode 2 begins and ends with Jorji and Lucas as the first customers, meeting the Barista on a stormy night. The Barista lampshades it by saying that it feels like déjà vu, while Jorji orders the same drink you served him on his first visitnote unless you messed up, otherwise he'll order a Sweet Coffee and Lucas orders the same Blue Pea Latte with art that Riona ordered on that first day. | |

Gratuitous Japanese: The main social media app everyone uses, Tomadachill (stylized as Tomodachi!!) is a portmanteau of tomodachi and chill, "tomodachi" being Japanese for "friend." Rachel's transformation is accompanied with a パー sound effect. The Chocobee Miruku contains the Japanese pronunciation for "milk". | |

Pop the Tires: In Episode 2, there's a car vandal that's been going around the city deflating the tires of some of your customers, including Jorji and Riona. Jorji heads the investigation to find the culprit, and Riona reports that her car's tires got deflated near a metered parking spot in front of an abandoned library, on a seemingly deserted street near a busy area that had a dead hawthorn tree surrounded by remembrance trinkets. It's revealed that the fairy-folk were behind the crime, as they vandalized the cars over a broken promise to keep the tree because that was the "body" of their friend, the fairy vendor who was killed by a drunk driver in 1959. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: There are still tensions between the different magical races of Seattle. Lua and Baileys, a couple of a succubus and an elf, have a hard time as her parents won't accepting their daughter dating an elf, nor will his accept their son dating a succubus. Aqua's Oceanic race is the most oppressed, as the newspapers will have headlines about the government imposing harsh restrictions on immigration from her kind. Aqua herself says it's extremely difficult for her kind to deal with the surface world. Inverted in Freya's novel, where the plot is an Alternate Universe where humans are the only race, but the difference in their appearance such as skin color causes strife among them, just like in Real Life. In Episode 2, the Vindication Act was passed to recognize the sentiency and rights of non-Sapient beings. Sapient beings are classified as "intelligent and bipedal", such as humans, elves, orcs, gnomes, and halflings. However, other races such as satyrs and banshees take a long time before they're recognized by international law. Because there are only a few banshees in the world and sirens are better favored as sopranos, Riona, an aspiring soprano, is extremely frustrated with the prejudice she gets as a banshee. She also carries the burden of her mom, who's the trader of her commune, because the latter turned insane from all the discrimination she gets from her negotiations with other races. In the 50's, long before the Vindication Act was passed, the government first attempted to resolve the post-war racism among humans and fantasy beings by categorizing them for legal purposes. They believed that it was the first step towards peace, but the system was oversimplified, inefficient, and slow, leaving many beings in administrative limbo. These beings, some who were "uncategorizable", were considered "transient", and weren't legally allowed to start their own businesses. In modern times, aliens seem to have it worst, as any extraterrestrials who are found out by officials are immediately extradited due to being potentially threatening unknowns that are not accounted for by any current laws. Aliens visiting Earth usually need to disguise or go into hiding in order to avoid agents on the lookout for them. Nekomimis are stereotyped as "mediocre in all ways besides being pretty and cute", while satyrs are commonly perceived as reckless party animals. Rachel and Lucas had to battle rampant prejudice against their respective races on their way to stardom. | |

Giving it to Gala, on the other hand, will have him use it to entertain the hospital kids, but they'll think that it's passé. Lucas also makes a status update wondering if the fidget spinner is "that lame now". | |

The Fair Folk | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_859ec5d8 | comment |
The Fair Folk: In the late 50's, "fairies" were an umbrella term for any beings that didn't fit any of the racial categories at the time, meaning that any sentient being that was "incomprehensible", such as ghosts, was lumped with them. As the anti-racism movement progressed, the list of beings classified as "fairies" became shorter as more of them became legally recognized, until only the "true" fairies are left. It's revealed that the Gnomes of Gnome Noms were behind the car vandalism in Episode 2. They vandalized cars over a broken promise to keep the dead hawthorn tree because that was the "body" of their friend, the fairy vendor who was killed by a drunk driver in 1959. | |

Broken Pedestal: In Episode 2, Aqua reveals that the game company that she's working for looks down on small developers and gave her a shady contract. With Myrtle's advice, Aqua realizes that just because she loves the company's games doesn't mean that they treat their employees well, so she rejects the contract. | |

Posthumous Character: Jorji's grandfather, who died before one of Jorji's daughters was born, was a war veteran who was honorably discharged due to a permanent leg injury. Bourne Street was named after him in his honor. Jorji became a cop to protect his grandfather from criminals after a burglary, even if the latter didn't trust the police, but he died just when Jorji entered training. Jorji's grandfather also used to talk to the fairy vendors in front of his place, which was where he bought his lighter, which Jorji holds onto dearly as a lucky charm. | |

She doesn't feel inspired enough to make a new single with Aremy Jendrew, so she doesn't show the Barista her new song on her second visit. | |

Take a Third Option: A major source of tension between Baileys and Lua is that Baileys is willing to leave his family for her, and she won't let him do it because she's worried that he'll come to resent her for it if they ever fall out of love later. Baileys solves this by realizing that he hates his family anyway, and leaving them because he wants to, not for Lua. By making his decision without involving her, he takes things into his own hands and doesn't attach anything to Lua. | |

| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_95db314b | comment |
Casual Kink: One conversation involves a rather frank discussion of kink: Hyde tells Gala how he's heard that some werewolves use BDSM as a means of calming themselves during their monthly transformations, to which Gala matter-of-factly replies that's only something that ever happens in porn, though vanilla sex as a calming method is actually fairly common. Gala lightly ribs Hyde about the fairly obvious implication that he was watching werewolf porn, telling him it's okay if he's into "that sort of thing." Hyde quickly claims that he just heard about it from a friend... Hyde and Gala's true ending, which involves Hyde presenting a flustered Gala with a fuzzy pair of handcuffs, implies otherwise. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: On one day, Hyde teases the barista about saying "we" and "our" when they're the only person who works at Coffee Talk. The barista raises the valid point that it makes sense to speak that way when you're the face of a business, but it's also a subtle hint that there's a connection between them and the other character who speaks that way: Neil. In addition, Neil can read the speech balloons — just like the player. At one point, Jorji describes one of your drinks as "out of this world." Every new day starts with the same animation of the coffee shop opening up, but notably, that animation also features a clear shot of the moon, which waxes (and later wanes) accurately from day to day, giving the player a subtle hint that the night of the full moon will be significant. Considering one of the main characters is a werewolf, it's not hard to guess what will happen. Episode 2: Hyde orders a "bold, red" hibiscus drink on his first visit, but inconveniently, you don't have ginger available on that day. He'll happily take any hibiscus drink you make for him, but he'll remark that there's only one drink of that kind that he had enjoyed, wondering if you can make something close to it. This is a hint that the drink in question uses ginger as one of its ingredients. It's pointed out that it's unusual for the café to only serve drinks. When Riona breaks down crying over her regret in following her dream to be a soprano singer despite the prejudice against banshees, the Barista cheers her up by making her a Berry-Blue Hibiscus "Pie"... which is actually a drink that resembles the pie she ate the other day. | |

Hypocritical Humor: Freya engages in this a lot: One of her favorite ribs is “old man,” which she uses on more than one of the other characters. Naturally, she is quite put out when Rachel calls her “grandma.” She is quick to scold characters for being blunt or pushy, forgetting that as a reporter she’s equally guilty of doing the same. This leads to more than one instance of her putting her foot completely into her mouth. This happens in Episode 2 when Lua and Baileys exchange Sickeningly Sweet compliments during their wedding reception: | |

Shout-Out | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The "GRA Media" publisher Freya talks about is one of the Indonesian Major Book Publishers: "Gramedia". The description for espresso is "Blacker than a moonless night, hotter and more bitter than hell itself". The description for Gingerbread Coffee is "Sweetened with brown sugar to satisfy the cookie monster." The Chubby Bubbles Girl can be seen running away from a werewolf in the headline image of October 1's news. Some of the special drinks you can make are called Midsummer Night's Dream, The Grinch, Lemony Snippet, Bedchambernote an Indonesian indie band, Bitter Heartnote a song by Malaysian singer-songwriter Zee Avi, Spiced Lady, and Spanish Saharanote the song used in the ending of Life Is Strange. Episode 2: The headline image of September 20's news is a parody of the Distracted Boyfriend meme. Silver's outfit is inspired by a "fictional universe where all the stories take place in the stars", with its insignia loosely based on Starfleet's. When Detective McQueen drops by the café to help Jorji with his case involving the culprit behind the vandalism case, the former asks him, "You need to bust a ghost?" Detective McQueen talks about a case where his team investigated an apartment haunted by a widow's deceased husband. They had to exorcise the ghost, but he fled to the basement and played romantic music and shone a spotlight on them to cast an illusion on them. As McQueen further explains the case, the Barista points out that it's the plot of Ghost (1990). The achievement for getting Silver and Amanda's good ending is called "How I Met Your Ancestor". One of Aqua's status updates shows her playing Super Brawl Pals 2 on the Switch. In Silver and Amanda's bad ending, Silver mentions that Amanda hid away from the F.I.R.E agent in a vent. October 3's headline image in a "bad" run shows a person vaguely resembling Dora the Explorer telling a fox wearing a bandana, "Hacker no hacking". | |

That Came Out Wrong | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_d1affec1 | comment |
That Came Out Wrong: In Hendry's first visit, he tries to figure out how to relate to his daughter better by striking up a conversation with Freya and Aqua for ideas. Unfortunately, leading with asking about their age and about "what kinds of things kids like doing" comes off in a way he didn't intend. It doesn't help that he suddenly moves closer to the girls while doing so. In Episode 2, Lucas tries helping Riona with her singing career amidst the prejudice by suggesting that she should "sell" herself, to Jorji's shock since he thinks he's talking about sex work. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: There's more than one possible reaction towards incorrect orders depending on how badly you messed up in them. Some customers will tell you that it's not what they wanted, but at least it has the ingredients or flavor they requested. In Episode 2, Lucas gives you his contact card and a fidget spinner with his number on it, and he requests you to give either of them to Riona on her next visit. You can give them to Rachel on her first visit, but she'll return them to you because she already knows and follows Lucas on Tomodachill. You can also give the fidget spinner to Gala on his first visit, which he'll use to entertain the hospital children. These special reactions count as secret achievements. | |

Limited Sound Effects | |
| Coffee Talk (Video Game) / int_d8342da8 | comment |
Limited Sound Effects: Every character apart from Neil gets the exact same sipping sound effect with their drink animation. This isn't particularly noteworthy, apart from one moment- when you serve milk to Hendry in his cat form, the "slurppp" sound plays even though he's lapping it off the counter. | |

Lucas wears a yellow Guxxi hoodie while Riona works as a Grüver driver making intercity deliveries. Strangely for the former, the real clothing brand is mentioned in the Evening Whispers poem "Sing Your Body Electric", implying that they both exist in the setting. | |
