Why.

Was really interested in this. Too bad it never loaded, and was only a black screen after multiple uninstall and reinstalls, as well as waiting and restarting my device. It’s just piano music with a black screen.
Maybe we should call this a novel.

This is not a game exactly. I take this to compare with the strange life. I have to say this is boring and inoperable. In this world game what can you do is read the story to collect the words to unlock some extra story. There is no any voice in these people, just some words to show their emotions.The set type is so bad that sometimes I can’t understand the sentence belong which character says that. In fact that I didn’t understand what does this game(novel) talk about what? The story revolves around 5 characters. Any other guys just some black shadow. A dead guy come to the coffee house and met some special person. The girl maybe is a witch? And the “old”man¿ is the predecessor host of the coffee house. I think he is younger enough to be a cute boy.? The another man is the some kind mystery company member, and he might killed someone in his “last” life. So he was killed by hanged. That’s why he have to use tube to drink water. The last one is the little mischievous girl, her one hand is err… These people’s story make this novel. Back to the talk, I think this really should not put in here, this is not a game… But this is a good aesthetic healing game, and the music is harmonic.
This isn’t a game
Vytraea
It’s a poorly written graphic novel that doesn’t even deserve to be called an interactive story. Apple Arcade is like Netflix, everyone gets a shot, for better or worse. Well, they took a shot. This was on the worse end. Besides the flawed first draft feel of the writing, the animation is puzzling in spots. Why does Chay have a black censorship bar over his junk when he’s fully clothed? Is Chay packing so much heat it’s obscene even when he’s got baggy pants on? And why does Ashley have one dog ear tucked into her ball cap when cut from behind, but at every other angle it’s a twin swinging free like the other side of her head? Back to the writing- the main character, the incel you play, has to be the closest to the writers heart, but do you really think people want to “play-“ term very loosely applied- some pathetic creep who literally just sits around and mopes about how sorry for himself he feels in front of strangers in a public coffee house? Everything about Necrobarista is a huge miss. The worst part is, you think it’s a game so you keep tap tap tapping through an era of bad similes and dull dialogue to get to the good part only to discover that this is the ONLY part. I’d feel bad for the writer(s,) but from what I read, they feel bad enough for themselves. Have somebody edit this crap and advertise it for what it is. Some of us edit for low enough rates even the Apple will pay.
Not what I imagined
Alienaphrodite
If you like reading this perfect for you. The graphics and the characters are really nice. The music. I enjoyed it but I would have liked way more interaction being Maddy, like making drinks and interacting with objects. But that’s not this game and that’s okay. Great job devs none the less..
No Inverted Y-Axis
Andrés Santiago Pérez-Bergquist
This game is unplayable with a controller for me because there’s no option to invert the Y-Axis, and I’m not going to relearn two decades of muscle memory. Please add this option.
The scenes take forever
1st bad review!
I can’t even rate it as a game since the majority of the time I’ve been “playing” it has been tapping to get one more sentence or word on the screen for the story scene. They take forever. It wouldn’t be so bad if the scene would just play and then get on with the game. I’m deleting it because I wanted a game, not a story hour. If long, drawn out story scenes that you have to tap through the entire thing is what you’re looking for then this game is for you, but if you actually want to DO something, I’d skip this one.
Tedious, dark
gordonross
I didn’t make it very far. After tapping the screen a zillion times to read dialogue 3 words at a time, you’re dumped into a scene that will have you adjusting your screen brightness to see where the far too sensitive controls are taking you. Not fun or interesting at all, sorry to say.
Great story
Mononon147
The majority of this game is a visual novel, and those parts are great the characters are written well, and the plot is interesting. You really want to know what happens next. Unlike a lot of popular visual novels, there’s no big mystery here. This is a smaller intimate story about a group of people and death. It’s a good story with some real emotion and I loved it. There are also some side stories you can unlock. These are very well-written as well, but unlocking them requires you to find them and spend tokens unlocked at the end of every chapter. This system is obtuse at the best of times and after finishing the game, I didn’t even unlock half. I wanted to read them because they were great, but the game seems almost purposefully designed to prevent it. This doesn’t take away from how good three main story is, but it does put s damper in the side content. The way this game looks is very unique for a visual novel. Instead of character portraits talking to each other over the background, like in most other games in the genre, this has fully 3D scenes with movement. The characters are basically placed in the environment, kind if like dolls. It’s a neat effect and makes the dialog feel more dynamic. It’s a very cool way to do a visual novel. Overall, I loved the story and characters. I wish the side content had been more easily accessible, but given how good the main game is, and how little impact that content has on the actual plot, it’s fine. This is an easy recommendation as long as you understand this is more of an interactive book, and not a game with any kind of action.
Solid game, but I’m tentative
johnogames
Lots of complaints say that this isn’t a game, but a graphic novel. This is closer to what mobile games ought to be shooting for, in that it is focused on telling a story. The art is beautifully done, the characters are interesting and the writing is well done. I heard that the ending is super anticlimactic, so I am tentative for that but we’ll have to see. At the very least the start is solid so DEVS: if you want five stars from more people update and change the ending ASAP. But good job with this. I’d like to see more. Side note: performance wise, this makes my iPhone 11 Pro Max very warm and in the parts where I walk around in the cafe, there are severe frame drops. You could do with greater optimization and turning down some of the settings to not be maxing out the phone’s GPU temps.
Who is this game for?
KennyWu4u
As a visual novel it looks far better than most. As a game there is almost no player choice. As an anime it is barely animated at all. The touch controls are not good. The frame rate is inconsistent. You might learn something about Australia from playing.
