About the Game

Inspired by real life events in an office . . .

Coffee

Dave Needs His Coffee . . .
Not Chatty Cathy!

You must help Dave get his coffee each level by collecting all the coffee beans and making it to the coffee maker without getting caught by Chatty Cathy in PacMan inspired gameplay.

You succeed, you get paid.
You fail? . . . there's always tomorrow

What Next?


Go home. Buy stuff online. Eat dinner with the wife.

Then repeat . . . until retirement.

Retirement . . . Now What?

That is the real question, isn't it?

Make sure you make enough money and buy everything you need to keep you entertained in retirement!
