Customisation, Exploration and a Critter for Everyone

Hi friends! We just know you're itching for more tidbits about our upcoming cosy game featuring adorable fantastical creatures known as Critters! Well, here’s some more info about what you can expect from Critter Café ahead of its release later in 2024.

Customise Your Character

Express yourself! There is a big focus on customisation in Critter Café. With genderless character customisation you won't be locked out of any given cosmetic item based on your choices, so there’s endless possibilities.



Solve Puzzles

Explore the mysterious rifts found around your new home and use magical tools to solve a range of environmental puzzles that increase in difficulty the more you explore. But don’t worry, there are no time constraints and no ways to fail. Push and pull blocks, activate switches and use your magical tools to work your way through the levels and closer to your end goal – rescuing a Critter!



Critter Rescue

Critter Café is all about finding and rescuing adorable Critters and bringing them home to your café to bond with! After solving the puzzles inside each rift, you’ll find a new Critter waiting for you, and with 35 Critters to discover, rescue and bond with, there’s sure to be a Critter for everyone. We’re excited to see which one is your favourite.



Serve Your Customers

Customers will come to your café to enjoy date nights, afternoon teas, karaoke and more. Arrange the perfect space for a booked event with Critters they’d adore, or open the café for general business and fulfil your customer’s requests for the best visit possible. You’ll also be able to show off your barista skills by making coffee and serving up some tasty treats through a series of easy-to-master mini games.



The Café of your Dreams

Customise your café to a style you love with themed chairs, tables and decorations! As you grow your café, your new island home and its residents will provide inspirations for refurbishing your café and its magical sanctuary.



We're super excited to share more about Critter Café in the coming weeks. Wishlist it now to keep up to date with the latest news and updates.

Welcome to Critter Café

Welcome to your new café – shared with some fantastical friends! When a mysterious portal in your new home reveals a long-lost Critter stuck within, you set out to rescue every unique Critter you find and build a welcoming café for townsfolk and Critters alike. 



Announced as part of today's Wholesome Direct, Critter Café sees players managing their very own cosy café alongside adorable Critters.

Critter Café was brewed into existence as part of an internal game jam at developer Sumo Newcastle. The initial pitch came from gameplay programmer Eleanor Gregory, who is featured in the Wholesome Direct trailer.
