The new Coffee Talk game is our Game of the Week

Coffee is one of the world's great rituals, I guess. I'm sort of surprised when Voyager went off on its grand tour it didn't have a burr grinder or at least a packet of instant decaf packed away on it somewhere, or a few bags of tea if that's your thing.

I think the aspect that makes coffee particularly interesting to me, is that the ritual can expand or contract to fit the time you have for it. I follow people on TikTok who actually get angry about coffee made with an inferior grinder, who tamp and settle and do that funny thing where pins draw little shapes in the grain before it even gets near hot water. That always looks a lot like fun - and the videos are particularly good with the ASMR stuff inherent to coffee preparation.

It's this ritual side of things that makes coffee so well suited to games, and it's why I know that before long I will pick up. Alexis felt the game wasn't quite as coherent as the first, but it sounds like it's still a fascinating thing, a return to spooky Seattle and its midnight coffee shops. Another kind, thoughtful game, that hopefully carries on the spirit of the series' late creator, Mohammad Fahmi.
