For those who say they're bad at rhythm games, don't let that stop you from playing this one! It's not difficult at all, and you can get great results even if you miss a few beats.
Nom Nom: Cozy Forest Cafe has become my favorite game to relax to when I get home from work. It has all the things I love: music, decorations, pretty things, and adorable animals. It's beautiful; you'll love it!

Nom Nom: Cozy Forest Café is such a laid back game. You have goals and you work towards them at your own pace by being creative while also being attentive to your customers. You can design your own art to add a little panache to your orders or use the cute designs provided for you. I have never played a rhythm game before but it is not too difficult. I can get by quite well with my 90-95% (usually) or try again. By doing these things you earn points to buy things for your cafe.

I enjoyed decorating my cafe with an interesting color scheme I like and have started to add a few things from my earnings. I like the fact that it allows you to play at your own pace. It is good that the days are relatively short so you can spend a few minutes on it as a nice little break. Conversely, you can spend a few hours on it, too. The photo mode is fun. You can snap your creations or your cafe and customers and there is a photo album to place them all in for posterity.

I have only scratched the surface of this lovely game made by a solo developer who has obviously given her all to create Nom Nom: Cozy Forest Café. Anaïs Salla is very responsive to the questions and feedback from the community. It is nice to see this and it is something I look for before I buy a game. I have not been disappointed and I highly recommend Nom Nom: Cozy Forest Café.

This is a cozy game which REALLY capitalizes on everything I look for in a game that I want to actually relax me.

I have complete control over everything, down to the amount of shiny I want the legs of my chair to be or the colours of the cash register. I can remake the nom noms as many times as I need to until I get them perfect without any penalty which is the real chef's kiss for me personally. I know there have been some people thinking the creatures are a little strange looking, but that was one of the things which actually first attracted me to this game early on when it was first announced! I thought the little guys looked so charming and silly, and especially now after interacting with them and learning they each have their own dialogue tagline similar to characters in Animal Crossing, it really enhances the unique appeal this game offers. The shark with legs is my favourite, or maybe the lizard-frog guy (whatever he is, he's green, and i love him everytime he says mlem).

I also think the game loop itself is satisfying, with consideration taken for players of all accesibility types. The upgrades are reasonably priced, and so far everything feels well paced. Cooking sims are often not so heavy on aesthetic options that you don't have to grind your butt off for, but Nom Nom wants you to take time refining your aesthetic, decorating cookies, and there's never going to be any voice pinging you repeatedly to cook one more dish, cook it better, or anything like that. I think a cozy forest cafe really is the perfect definition of this game, as it REALLY delivers. This is a game I very much feel is worth it's price, especially considering how much the developer cares about this project. You can tell this is a labour of love, and I feel confident that it will garner love in return. I really look forwards to seeing how this game continues to grow. If you like cozy cute games or cozy cooking games, this is definitely something which deserves a spot in your library.
