About

Roast & Rich

Features
Read full description

Build a warm little roasting atelier, one shift at a time. Roast & Rich is a hands-on coffee-roastery journey across five regions: İstanbul, Rome, Addis Ababa, Kyoto, and New York. Listen for first crack and stop the drum at the right moment. Keep four stations moving, serve each line, and pause for quick A/B decisions that shape the rhythm of the shift. Every region adds its own craft: choose an Ethiopian coffee lot, complete Kyoto’s one-cup ritual, and plan New York’s cold-brew reserve. Your best shifts, perfect roasts, seals, and regional records live in the Journey Ledger. Optional Night Shift palettes and visual collectibles let you make the roastery yours. Roast & Rich is honest about monetization: the free game may show ads, including optional rewarded ads. Pro removes every ad and makes those rewards instant. Cosmetics are visual only, and the tip jar is simply a way to support this one-person roasting atelier—neither gives a gameplay advantage. Ad-Free Monthly and Yearly are auto-renewing subscriptions. They renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.
