While We Wait Here

While We Wait Here is a kitchen management game with dialogue choices and multiple endings. You run a small diner near a mountain range, taking customers’ orders, cooking food and serving refreshments. When a broadcast announces an impending catastrophe, the ordinary working day gives way to the threat of the end of the world.

Customers and choices

Some customers dismiss the news because they are absorbed in their own problems or refuse to believe it. Others welcome the catastrophe as punishment for things they have done. You listen to their stories and try to help them resolve their problems as you talk about the coming end and offer them food for thought. Your choices can persuade customers to seek shelter or leave them waiting at the diner.

Life behind the counter

While speaking with customers, you grill burgers, cook fries, flip pancakes and wash dishes. The game presents human dynamics from behind the counter through dozens of unique first-person interactions, with fully voiced characters.

A meditative horror story

While We Wait Here is a psycho-horror experience with multiple endings. There is no game over and no right or wrong choice; each decision is yours.
