Crash Cafe

Crash Café is a roll and write tabletop roleplaying game for one or more players to be played in 30 minutes or more. In it, you play as a humble, food-fixated goblin who has just inherited a café at the beating heart of the local monster city. Work together with your fellow restauranting gobbos to earn stars from the local food fae and become the next downtown culinary sensation! There's only one problem: 

None of you have the foggiest idea how to run a restaurant. 

But that's not stopping you! By gob, you and your companions are gonna make it work, and not just because you can caffeinate on the job for free. Down sugary gobbin snacks to build energy and then spend it to run the cafe and see what happens. Each roll builds up buzz for your corner café, which translates to rating stars from the food faeries! Careful though: Loading up on the sweets will result in a SUGAR RUSH and letting your goblin shenanigans run unchecked means rolling on the CHAOS TABLE with unpredictable results!

Easy to learn, and easy to play, Crash Café is a perfect way to spend a lazy afternoon, a quiet lunch break, or part of a game night with friends. 

What you need:

To play Crash Café you will need the following physical or digital materials:

  • A copy of Crash Café
  • A full set of polyhedral dice
  • A writing utensil and some scrap paper, or the printable stat sheets that come with the game.
  • One or more additional players (Optional)
