We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Beat-'em-up fans who want runs changed by random gameplay modifiers
- Friends seeking a local co-op brawler rather than a solo-only game
- Heavy metal fans who want music from named bands in an alien-invasion game
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a fixed sequence of encounters may not want the randomized changes between runs.
- Players looking for a low-difficulty experience may not want the increased challenge of Death Metal Mode.
- Players seeking online co-op may not find the multiplayer setup they want, since the described co-op is local.
Our take on Coffee Crisis
Coffee Crisis replaces a fixed beat-'em-up structure with changing enemies and gameplay modifiers. Twitch integration also lets viewers influence events, adding audience participation to the brawler format.
What is Coffee Crisis?
Coffee Crisis is a brawler about baristas defending Earth from aliens and brainwashed humans seeking heavy metal, free Wi-Fi, and coffee.
It supports solo play and local co-op for two players across eight locations, from a coffee house headquarters to outer space. Combat includes weapons, special moves, suplexes, and coffee. Random modifiers alter enemies and gameplay on each playthrough, with more than 50 screen effects, power-ups, and enemy changes. Twitch integration lets an audience influence events during a run. The game includes a heavy metal soundtrack and music from Pyschostick, Lords of the Trident, Nile, and Terrorizer. Death Metal Mode increases the difficulty for repeat play.
