...Well then, Hello everyone. I'll try my best to release the common route patch by christmas or at least before the next year. The biggest thing that remains is editing the UI elements, which I have already translated and should (hopefully) be done by then. Most of the other stuff is done, so I'll release it soon.

WELCOME TO CAFE MYSTERIA!!! Immerse yourself in the festive season by visiting a mysterious café that only opens for 12 days each year. The handsome well-dressed butlers will stop at nothing to ensure that you have a good time. Pick one and stick with them throughout the twelve days or mess around and see who you like best - the choice is yours! In this café, the 4th wall has been broken down completely - the protagonist is you. Flirt, tease, joke, or cry your way through the murky waters of friendship and love.

Cafe Mysteria is a unique one-of-a-kind experience, designed such that the butlers are speaking to you, not just a pre-designed protagonist on the screen. There are not currently many visual novels of this style, so even if just for curiosity's sake, you should check it out! 2. How did Cafe Mysteria come about? It is heavily inspired by the visual novel 'Aloners' by sonnet009 and their style of breaking the 4th wall. It started off as a simple Christmas visual novel to enjoy the festive mood and has gone through multiple revisions since 2015 to what it is today. 3. Do I have to understand Chinese to get the full experience? No!! Knowing Chinese will change your experience in some ways, but ultimately in the final version it will not matter. 4. Are there minigames in Cafe Mysteria? Yes. In the demo there will be four completed minigames. None of these will be mandatory in the final version though! 5. Are there any incentives for me to review Cafe Mysteria? The first three people to comment on Cafe Mysteria on Fuwanovel will be given a free copy of the visual novel upon release. Everyone else will get a free code for the bonus pack when available. Additionally, I may at my own discretion choose randomly from the reviewers to provide a little surprise in the future releases of Cafe Mysteria. (This will be awarded to past winners in the upcoming 2023 demo). 6. What will be part of the bonus pack? It is still awhile from the final release date, but I expect to release additional side stories that flesh out the individual character backgrounds after the final version of Cafe Mysteria is released. Everyone who reviewed prior to the final release date with obtain a free code for the bonus pack. 7. What questions do you want me to answer? I've listed some questions below. Feel free to address any (or none) of them in your review! What are/were your expectations from Cafe Mysteria? What is your experience with this type of visual novel? Who is your favorite character? Why? Would you play this on full release? Did you find any glaring errors in the visual novel? What did you think Cafe Mysteria did well? Why? What did you think Cafe Mysteria did poorly? Why? What do you think Cafe Mysteria can improve on? 8. Does Cafe Mysteria have a plot? Definitely! You play as a female who has stumbled upon a mysterious Christmas cafe that is only open for 12 days a year. During these 12 days, you'll get to know the butlers, who each have their individual stories to tell and decide whether or not to pursue them. The demo itself is fairly light-hearted, while the final version will go into much more depth and include a story of how Cafe Mysteria came to be. 9. I find certain events to be triggering. Is Cafe Mysteria right for me? Cafe Mysteria may not be suitable for very young children or people who are easily disturbed. However, there is an option to turn on content warning, where the visual novel warns you every time a potentially triggering scene appears. The demo itself is fairly light and shouldn't pose too much of an issue to most people. 10. How long is Cafe Mysteria? This is the most up-to-date Lint report. Please note that the word count also includes scenes that are currently inaccessible and will only be accessible in the final version. Statistics: The game contains 6,287 dialogue blocks, containing 53,215 words and 293,052 characters, for an average of 8.5 words and 47 characters per block. The game contains 359 menus, 48 images, and 46 screens. I would estimate that the 2023 demo has approximately 1 hour worth of content, although this may be significantly more or less depending on how many of the menu choices you wish to explore. 11. When will the latest demo release? The latest demo has been released on 24th December 2023. Please see above for download links.

Hihi everyone! I've been in the visual novel industry for a couple of years now, mostly releasing short visual novels here and there, but currently working on a rather ambitious project. It's mostly a side hobby that I do on top of my usual work so updates can be slow. Been really keen on this one though that I plan to release a demo for this Christmas! Nice to meet everyone Side note: Christmas be making me go "OH NOM NOM" with all the tasty food like this character from my latest VN: Credit to Hunyo for the adorable chibis

Alright so I read that the patch is done since they restored all the CGs but only thing missing is the english translation but I don't really care about it. Does someone have the patch or a way for me to contact the team ? Since I can read japanese and I bought Nora to Oujo recently i'd just be glad to restore all the CGs !

Wow! Welcome to Fuwanovel! Just curious, but what visual novels have you worked on? Would love to know more!
