You play as a young woman working closing shifts at a Japanese café. As she serves customers and goes about her daily routine, unsettling encounters and clues point to someone watching her.
Take customer orders, prepare drinks by combining ingredients and using café equipment, serve desserts, and clean tables and floors after each shift. The work is carried out at a measured pace, with recipes and instructions available in the café.
The story unfolds across shifts, with conversations, found notes, and events gradually adding to the unease. Explore the café and other everyday locations in first person; the VHS-style visual effects can be turned off in the options.
Players often enjoy the contrast between calming café routines and the growing unease of the story, highlighting the atmosphere and the grounded stalking premise. Many also like preparing drinks, while some find the repeated orders or coffee tasks tedious. Reactions to how frightening the game is vary.
