About the game

What is Café Melange?

Café Melange takes players to Vienna in 1910, with prominent individuals such as Trotzky, Klimt and Freud meeting one another in the coffee bar "Central". The players work in the coffee bar and must use logic and deduction in order to place their guests next to these VIPs. (A "Café Melange", by the way, is a specialty coffee drink akin to cappuccino.)
