The Game at a Glance
What is Maid Cafe Simulator?
Maid Cafe Simulator is a first-person management simulation game developed by Accelix and SCON where players restore a rundown cafe inherited from their father. You hire five kemonomimi maids, prepare forty-nine drink recipes, upgrade your shop, and aim to earn three Maidchelin stars across thirteen story chapters.
Daily operations involve flipping the entrance sign to open, taking customer orders, mixing drinks at shakers, brewers, and blenders, and scanning receipts to count change at the register. Between shifts, you organize the staff duty roster, defend the hall from disruptive troublemakers with a ladle, and build bond levels with your maids.
