Moe Girl Cafe: Android game

I'm a big fan of casual gaming on my smaller devices (phone, tablet) when I'm not on the computer so I'm always on the lookout for cute games I can play on the run.


Discovered this cute cafe management game called Moe Girl Cafe for android devices. Looks like it was released sometime in December 2013 and it is indeed Moe. There are chibi versions of some popular anime girls that you can hire and assign to have one of three jobs: Hostess, Waiter and Cook. They can then earn experience and level up improving their stats to become a 5-star employee! Unfortunately, it is very hard to get the original character as they come in an assortment of colors and hiring girls with higher ratings requires cash! You can also combine girls and possibly get a new one with better stats.


Ingame money is quite easy to make as long as you level up your menu items. You have to assign an employee to raise level of the food and she won't be able to work in your cafe until its finished. Higher level items on the menu can take a month (which is one play session) or more and are not even guaranteed to level up. Furthermore, salary for the girls will be deducted at the end of every month.

There's only a limited selection of decor (wallpaper, floor and tables). Every 4 months, a special merchant will also visit the restaurant where you may find additional ornamental items for your cafe as well as special recipes for the missing items in your menu.


Even with all its shortcomings, I'm enjoying the chibi versions of familiar anime girls and the collection aspect. There are 23 girls to collect and they come in 5 colors each with one being the true, original color.
The original version of the character will be represented by the pink color of the card.

Ways to obtain cash/credits:
- Tapjoy offers - Have not tried these
- Register for the game and get 50 credits every 5th day of logging in and 100 credits every 6th day.
- Fulfill achievements that award cash.
- You get 5 credits for rating other players' cafes up to 4 times a day. To receive these credits, you must go to your mailbox and click on the giftbox.
- Get 30 credits for inviting other people to join by giving them your invite code.


Gameplay tips
- Tap each girl every once in a while to speed them up after a while. Too much tapping will award you with unhappy smileys
- The girls you want to level up quickly should be assigned to hostess or cook. Hostesses earn more experience but you will find that their "charm stat" grows more than other stats.
- Looks like you can assign as many girls as you want to Waitress!
- Set your Main Dishes to menu items that draw in the most income while using the least ingredient costs.
- Log in for 7 days straight to get a 5 star employee!

Will update with more as I familiarize myself more with the game!
Oh yes, my invitation code is 1B60D and username is Chrysa. You can get 60 credits and I will receive 30 (limited to 10 invites only). Thanks.

    1. If you level up your staff, they will perform better! Waitresses and cooks will be faster. Hosts will attract more customers.

      Your staff gets paid monthly with the coin you earn. You can also use your coin to level up recipes and buy furniture!

    2. When you go into the Staff section, select the maid you want to "upgrade", and there will be a combine button on the side!

      Delete
    3. Hello, uhmm .. You actually had to make one of your staff (the one who you want to disappear) be a "stand by" then go to the other staff (the one who you want to stay) and do the combination thing. I hope this would help you. ^__^

    1. You have to keep expanding your cafe. The second time you do you're allowed I believe one more cook. But expanding is a bit pricey.

    1. I'm having the same issue! I don't stupefied means like shocked, but how do I shock my staff????¿¿¿

      Delete
    2. Hi! "Stupefied" in Moe Girl Café refers to when you catch your maid dozing/off task. If you tap on their head it surprises them, and they resume working. This one is harder to get because it's random.

  10. How to put an invitation code if I didn't put it while I register? Tnx.

  11. Is the cooks limited to two or can they be increased?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. The maximum number of cooks you can employ will increase as you expand your cafe. For example, when you level your cafe from 2 to 3, the max cook will go from 2 to 4
      Hope this helps :)

  21. Help! I tested out whether I could get 2 originals with the 200 credits hire draw and would reset the app every time I didn't get 2 originals in the same draw. When I would go back to the game I'd get back the 200 credits and the girls I hired with those credits went back into the system. I tried this many times and now I don't even 1 original every time I do this cheat. :c Will my harem never be complete?
