I had the opportunity to review this, but I passed on it. Just didn't look interesting to me. If you liked this game, you may want to try VA-11 HALL-A. I reviewed it last year:

I played this today hoping to get a lot of achievements quickly. This did not happen, instead I got into the game and played it a lot - in between crop harvesting in Farm Together.
I liked this story driven game. To be honest, there is not a whole lot you do in it other than move the dialog along, but you do get to make coffee as the barista in a coffee shop that seems more like a bar. People come to the counter and tell you their stories and you make them drinks. If you get what they want, I think the story takes some different paths, but I'm not sure yet. I'm on my second playthrough.
To make a coffee you choose three ingredients from the requests or clues the customers give you.
The game isn't very long. I finished it in a few hours. On my second playthrough you can fast forward through the dialog which makes it go by very fast. I'm trying to get the drinks right on a few of the characters to open up their whole story and maybe alter the ending a little bit.
There's a free-play and challenge mode where you just make coffee and try and get the requests right. Sometimes you have to guess as to the order of ingredients, but I think if I look more closely, there is a way to tell which order. It's all encouraging me to make my own coffee drinks now. I'm excited to try it and maybe mixed drinks too.
Anyway, the story is good and the dialog interesting. It's worth a playthrough just for that.

It's barely a game, really. Mostly you just click "a" to move the dialog along. You can even set it to automatic so you don't have to click anything. In my second playthrough I used the fast forward button to skip all the dialog and get to the coffee making. Fortuneatly you can look at a text version of the last few lines of dialog so you can get the hints as to what to make.
Well, the dialog was pretty good. I enjoyed that, but I was hardly doing anything. The game part of it is just choosing a drink and mixing the ingredients. Very simple gameplay. I put the controler down most of the time and put the game on auto, just reading the dialog.
