    It's cute for all of a couple hours. You get your dragon, love it, and then are faced with what can only be described as hours of repetitive and restricted gameplay. The game refuses to let you progress for hours upon hours by requiring you to harvest materials consistently from the same location and awaiting the "story" to progress by just passing to the next day. But there is no reward.It's cute for all of a couple hours. You get your dragon, love it, and then are faced with what can only be described as hours of repetitive and restricted gameplay. The game refuses to let you progress for hours upon hours by requiring you to harvest materials consistently from the same location and awaiting the "story" to progress by just passing to the next day. But there is no reward. No pay-off.

    You have passably good graphics (for what the game is) and a cute dragon. The characters that are presented have no heart or feeling while they try to, and the frustration that is brought on by the phrase "I shouldn't wander too far..." every time you try to cross a bridge to a new area is remarkably annoying.

    The controls themselves are also not the best. There is a lag in the time it takes to press the jump button where sometimes your character won't even jump at all, but instead will just stand there. Overall, I regret getting this game.

    The highlight of my entire experience was the dragon. I enjoyed the mechanic of being able to change the dragon's color as well as just the dragon himself was adorable. So the game gets points for that. But overall, a regretful title that I overall was just not a fan of.    … Expand

    Who's idea was it to charge $60 for an indy game on the Switch? When you can buy the amazing Indy Hollow Knight for $9.90? For that reason alone, the game gets a zero.

    Charming but too soon redundant mix of coffee house management (including cookin rhythm minigames) and raising a dragon with very obvious technical problems.

    Little Dragons Cafe is a game targeted at a younger audience, and we think it succeeds in delivering a good experience for them. More experienced players won't find them that enjoyable, but we think it's entertaining anyway.

    Yasuhiro Wada shows his new creation with this easy game that everyone in the house can afford to play. We expected much more from the Harvest Moon and Rune Factory creator, and at least we wanted something more of management in a game that is supposed to let us manage our own cafe. But we have a dragon.
