Internet Cafe Evolution

Internet Cafe Evolution is a business management game about building an internet cafe and expanding it into other forms of entertainment business. You arrange the cafe, choose its computers and facilities, set business strategies and manage staff as customer needs and popular games change over time.

Set up your cafe

Allocate slots for customers, smoking areas, non-smoking areas and private spaces using partitions. Walls can reduce the impact between customers, but they also block the benefits of green plants. Place ancillary facilities to meet different customer needs.

Choose computer configurations with compatibility in mind, aiming for high performance at low cost to run the era’s mainstream games. You can instead opt for cheaper computers, and update hardware as technology develops.

Manage the business

Use business data and financial statements to set prices and introduce memberships. You can also collaborate with game and computer hardware vendors to promote the cafe. As different games become popular over time, adjust your computers and business strategy; you’ll also encounter era-specific internet cafe stories and target tasks.

Manage your staff

Assign work to the internet cafe administrator, give instructions, monitor their work and adjust their salary when appropriate. As your relationship grows closer, unexpected storylines can unfold.

Expand your business

You can change direction and run a pure gaming hall, which follows different business rules from an internet cafe. Other options include running a live-streaming business or a dedicated live-streaming company, where you discover and hire streamers, build rooms for them and develop their strengths. You can also recruit skilled customers to form an esports team and pursue greater honors, or adapt your business to become a KTV or private cinema.
