The game

You are the kopi kia. The queue is not patient.

A shift is forty-five seconds long. Orders come in the real kopitiam shorthand, the mug fills in front of you, and Uncle Lim is watching. Get it right, get paid, move to the next stall.

Order like a local

Kopi-C Siew Dai, Teh-O Kosong Peng, Yuan Yang. Sixteen drinks in the real kopitiam shorthand, with the modifiers that actually change what lands in the cup.

A mug rendered in 3D

A live WebGL mug sits at the centre of the screen. Liquid layers stack up as you pour, ice cubes bob on the surface, steam rises off a hot cup — you can see the drink you are building.

Ten real hawker centres

A campaign from a quiet Tiong Bahru corner stall to the Changi Village late shift, each with a tougher earnings target and a shorter clock.

Regulars with opinions

Mdm Tan, Uncle Lim, Aunty Lee, Taxi Uncle Huat and Kenneth each order from their own favourites — and tell you about it out loud.

Career upgrades

Bank your earnings between shifts and spend them on a faster strainer, gourmet beans, a turbo ice crusher, or the pure prestige of a golden mug.

The menu

Every drink in the game

Pulled straight from the game's own recipe file, so this board is never out of date.

The campaign

Ten stalls, one reputation

Each level raises the earnings target and tightens the clock. Three stars means you beat it comfortably. Nobody beats Changi Village comfortably.

Notes from building it

Kopi Kia was built almost entirely by talking to a large language model. These are the honest write-ups — what worked, what wasted time, and what shipped anyway.

Shift starts in 3… 2… 1…
