== Gameplay ==
Players develop a town with a large cafe, along with a coffee truck and smaller outdoor cafe, that can be added to and decorated with functional furniture and other decorations. Each player resides in their own "town" server instance with a global chat to communicate with all other players in a town.
There are two main currencies, Coins and Diamonds. There are also multiple types of sub-currencies used for other purposes, such as Gacha Tix and Staff Cards, along with additional event currencies used in limited-time in-game events.
Leveling up gradually unlocks more types of food and drink equipment that can be added to the main coffee shop, along with other decorations.
Players can also visit the city for daily rewards, purchasing additional items and outfits, upgrading drink machines, purchasing or using VIP-exclusive items and features, selling items, and viewing limited time event content.
=== Staff system ===
New staff are obtained through using Gacha Tix at the gacha machine in their town.
Packs of staff cards can be bought in 1-pack, 3-pack, or 5-pack. Each staff has a variety of different stat values that make them more effective at moving faster, cooking faster, or researching faster. A large amount of human staff are at 1-star, while 2-star, 3-star, and 4-star staff are all various Sanrio characters.
When assigned to a job, the energy of a staff will gradually decrease, exhausting them if they are not fed. The staff can be given gifts in the form of smoothies to restore energy. Each staff has a favorite type of smoothie. Vanilla Smoothies can be given to any staff, but only restore 20 energy. Gifting the staff their favorite smoothie will restore 250 energy. They cannot be gifted any smoothies other than the Vanilla Smoothie or their favorite smoothie. Smoothies can be bought at the food stalls outside the shop area or obtained out of chests. The food stalls always sell Vanilla Smoothies, but only sell two types of specialty smoothies per day, restocking a different type on every daily reset. Any type of gifting smoothie can also be found out of chests.
=== Visiting Towns ===
Players can visit other towns or invite other people to their town using their Town ID found in the visiting menu. Certain settings for visit requests can also be modified here.
Players can also visit others on their Roblox friends list if they are in-game, or nearby players allowing visit requests that are in the same city instance as they are (if in the city).
== Events and promotions ==
=== In-game events ===
The game is regularly updated to have mini limited-time events themed around Sanrio characters and holidays, such as Sanrio character birthdays. These often include exclusive decorations and furniture for decorating the cafe that can be purchased or earned. Some events add permanent additions to the game, such as Theme events (adding many items around a certain character) and the Kuromi's Spooky Cafe minigame.
=== Avatar UGC ===
Some UGC items for the marketplace were published by the account in association with the game. Some of the items sold as UGC avatar items can also be seen in-game on customer NPCs.

== Incidents ==
=== Chat filter issues ===
Upon the release of My Hello Kitty Cafe, it was quickly found out by players that the chat filter unintentionally did not apply to the global town chat. This resulted in some players posting obscene and derogatory content into the global town chat that could be seen by all players in their towns. This was fixed with a server shutdown a few hours later.
