How to play: the cafe loop

From the official Poki description:

  1. Make drinks and food. The menu covers all kinds of coffee drinks, smoothies and pastries.
  2. Serve your customers “with a smile.”
  3. Hire new staff to keep things running smoothly.
  4. Keep expanding the restaurant, making it bigger and better as you grow.

Poki does not publish recipes, prices or a full upgrade list, so we do not invent them here.

Controls

Poki lists one control line: walk around with WASD, the arrow keys, your mouse or the joystick. That means you can play keyboard-only, mouse-only on desktop, or with the on-screen joystick on phones and tablets.

Tips for a smoother cafe

  • Hire staff as soon as you can afford it. Poki says staff keep things running smoothly, which frees you up to serve.
  • Expand steadily. Growing the restaurant is the core goal in the official description.
  • Pick the control style that suits you. Keyboard, mouse and joystick all work for walking.
  • Do not expect codes. Poki lists none for this game.

Platforms and kids

Play free at poki.com/en/g/platypus-coffee on desktop, phone or tablet, with no download. The cozy animal theme and simple walking controls make it an easy pick for younger players.
