### 5/5 — Devastated that this game is discontinuing

*2024-03-20*

This game is my childhood- and having grown up with it, I recently downloaded the LINE version and played it for almost a year. It's as good, or even better, than I remember it. Especially now that I've grown to love coffee and drink coffee almost every day, I've grown a newfound appreciation for how accurate som the details in this game are. It truly touches the heart of a coffee lover & cafe frequenter in  special, endearing way. Devastated to hear that this game is going away- it's truly a hidden gem with wonderful gameplay. So many things you could do with it. Truly unforgettable and beyond unfortunate that it's going.

### 5/5 — BEST Store Game Ever!

*2024-02-26*

I know everyone isn’t a big fan but I personally love this game! I love the slow paced life that I lead as a coffee store owner and the beautiful graphics. Events are super fun and enjoyable and I appreciate being able to visit other stores as well. I ultimately love the overall experience and think others should give this game a chance as well. Also, huge I love Pasta fan as well so if that was brought back, my life would be complete :) Happy I Love Coffee gaming!

### 4/5 — Long Time Fan

*2023-09-13*

I’ve been playing this game for going on 8 years now. I’ve seen it grow so much in that time. There’s a few flaws here and there but overall, I can’t ask for a better game. There were no ads when I started it but now they’ve added the feature to watch an ad for a certain reward but it doesn’t get in your way and in no way are they needed or pushy. The ads never stop your game play. 
Sometimes it has its moments and crashes but it’s not too often. I can’t really say anything much negative about this game, if there is any they’re minor issues that are fixed promptly. It’s a nice and fun game you can always go back to no matter how long you’re away.

### 2/5 — Unable to login

*2023-02-03, version 2.1.3*

I have been unable to log in for over a week now, I tried every day since I love the items for the current event.  Decided to try uninstall and reinstall, gonna quit this game for good if they don’t compensate for making me missed out on the current events.

### 5/5 — Love the new changes you made!!!

*2023-01-19, version 2.1.3*

Thank you for adding the ads to help with completing tasks and also the daily 5 ads to get more beans, money and 1 cash!!!! And I really like the weekly quest and all the extra chances at getting cool prizes. Also, I got new friends that are helping with the "tap my coffee roasters" quests so I'm just very happy. I Love Coffee has the best, cutest graphics! I've been playing this game for over 7 years, I used to play Pocket Potions, Sweet Shop, Dream Dresses, Hello Cappuccino and Fairywoods Patisserie but they're all gone from App Store now. I Love Coffee is the only cute decorating game left, thank you so much 😊

### 4/5 — Cute game has some flaws

*2022-12-28, version 2.1.0*

I think this game is a bit outdated and needs better chat dialogue. The English doesn’t make sense all the times especially when you are trying to convince other to go to your cafe. I love all the cute decorations and items. The customization is just great but I’m sad because a lot of it is overpriced with the cash. The cash costs real life money to get and it’s just too much in my opinion. I really like this game so far though just had to share my thoughts about some aspects. I hope it gets more recognition!!

### 5/5 — Please keep updating!

*2022-08-08, version 2.0.8*

We love coffee!!!! Keep this great game alive. I have so much free awesome stuff just by playing the game. No pay walls. Customize your Cafe however you want, the styles are endless!

### 5/5 — Best Shop Simulation Game

*2022-06-07, version 2.0.8*

I have been playing this game for almost ten years, and it is still my favorite management simulation game. The thought put into the NPC interactions is the best I’ve seen. There are so many drink and decoration options. The game can be as hands on or hands off as you want depending on your play style. It’s a lot of fun and easy to pick up, with tons of room for leveling up your shop.

### 5/5 — Been playing since it released

*2022-01-23, version 2.0.4*

Honestly, I have been playing this game since it came out and I have enjoyed it. I have played it on and off so reading comments about how it doesn’t work or crashes surprised me. I started it up again and I had no issues at the moment. The only thing that I have never liked is needing friends to help you out and always having to look for new friends each time I start it up at again.

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2021-10-17, version 2.0.4*

One star just for customer service and an app bug, the game is fun enough .

Lately I’ve been getting a pop up for the bargain bundle for $.99 to purchase it and says the limit has been reset. when I go in to purchase it says already purchased. I contacted customer service which is frustrating because I have to translate everything using google translate I send to Japanese or they won’t read it and then I have to translate their responses to English on my end . Also they aren’t listening to what I’m saying about the bug , I even sent screenshots. They keep asking for the time it occurred , it happens every time I log in day or night no specific time  . So a little frustrated . I’m literally trying to pay you for some in game currency and you don’t seem to want to fix it. I also don’t know why I have to translate for your customer service I’ve never had to do that before .
